Their focus is on the content, its accuracy, the prose, and whether a complete piece of work has been created. Those who write for periodicals such as magazines or newspapers will have no idea of how their work will be presented in the layout, and probably no desire to know. Much of the time, text will be written by those who have little or know expertise with layout, and perhaps no knowledge of what the specific layout will be. By this method, you will still also have the original source files for preservation purposes. Optimally, you will want completed text and fully processed images imported into Scribus for the most sensible workflow. While it's possible to edit text, draw vector drawings, or do photo processing, your possibilities will be limited compared with software dedicated to these tasks. As we have said before, Scribus is page layout software, not a word processor or image manipulating software.
