Hello everyone! I have use Scribus on Ubuntu successfully for self publishing books, notebooks and calendars. I am looking to create diaries for this 2025, 1 page per day, any tutorial or guidance? 🤔 Thank you
You should look into 'Scribus Generator', it is like a mailmerge script. There used to be some tutorials on youtube, been awhile since I looked at them.
Cheers!

I personally do not think Scribus is the best tool for such a project (even though it can probably be done with the Scribus Generator). It would probably be a lot easier to do in for example Libre Office.
I would probably have done it on my work PC (which has MS Office) using a combination of Excel (for the data, like dates, months, days, weekdays etc) and Word (using mail merge with the data from the Excel file). But that is just because since I use MS Office every day at work, this is what I know best.

We nee d a bit of clarification, are you creating a blank diary as a print version to be filled in. Or are you thinking about using scribus to write a diary "on the fly"?
