Keep in mind that not everything has been implemented yet in Scribus 1.4.1! It’s an ongoing development effort.
SCRIBUS TUTORIAL PDF
PDF fields – You will have to use the available fields that Scribus has to offer, and as you have seen there are several types.Furthermore it will be necessary to show on the form what information is expected from the user. These items will be used to represent the house style which your company or organization uses. You can add text frames, tables, images and shapes, in short anything that Scribus can produce. A lay-out – Try to design your form in advance.When designing a PDF form, we need to consider these features: Also links to external websites can be used. Link Annotation – Also used for links to locations in the document in which case even the exact coordinates can be used in point, according to the measurement systems used in Scribus.You cannot only use it to add text to the form but also links to locations elsewhere in the document or to websites on the internet. An annotation is in principle not visible in the pdf-form. Text Annotation – This is a text field with notes.The user can scroll the list, but does not have to open it first.
List Box – A list box is also used to present choices, but in this case at least some elements from the list are always visible.The user opens the list to make a choice. Combo Box – A combo box is a drop-down list with choices presented in a folded-in form.In our example we’ll use this box to denote a male or a female applicant for a course. Check Box – A familiar little box that shows a tick mark when we click it.Text Field – A text field is comparable to a text frame, but with the possibility to use numbers, think of numbers that are represented as dates or that a have a particular number of decimals or which are shown as a percentage.An individual button may use up to three different icons, which enable us to show a button-press-effect and even an icon that is shown when the mouse moves over the button. A button can be enhanced with a button face which we call ‘icon’. In the example that we’ll make shortly, we will create two buttons: one to print the form and one to send it as an e-mail. PDF-Button – A button is used to trigger some action.
