Desktop Publishing

From ICommons wiki

Within the NGO-in-a-Box Open Publishing edition, Desktop Publishing will focus on tutorials and software bundled together to allow organizations to prepare material for both print and web-based publication. Simple tutorials should be included with the software, and software should be aimed at both high-end and low-end computer systems and people with some knowledge of using word processing tools. Tools should cover a range of uses, such as AbiWord for simple processing, as well as more complicated tools like Scribus or OpenOffice.

(Note: tools make sense w.r.t. what you are going to use them for: this page should include also real-world examples and tutorials, for instance 'How do I make a logo?', 'How do I make a banner?'...)

[edit] Printing tools

pdftk

Description: Let's you join, split, encrypt, and apply other basic modifications to PDFs.
Comments: A good tool for people who don't have access to Adobe Acrobat or other advanced PDF tools. When combined with export functions in software like OpenOffice, it can be really powerful.
Technical Level: The biggest downside is that it is a command-line program, so it may be difficult for some people to use it. The documentation included with the software is pretty dense and difficult to read.
Plaftorms: all platforms
