Scribus calling python - ScribusGenerator 12 Years Ago by biscayne Does anyone have experience with calling a Python script to parse data into a Scribus template and generate a pdf file ? I know about the ScribusGenerator by Ekkehard Will, which works pretty well, but I have a tailormade python script that combines data from 2 csv tables. Would it be possible to add my python script to the ScribusGenerator ? help with Scribus 15 Years Ago by cppnewb Ok...so, i installed scribus today as a free alternative to adobe InDesign and Acrobat. However, every time I save as a PDF with a PDF text box in it, in Adobe Reader, it won't let me type in the area I designated.
