It's currently unclear if Indesign has taken steps to be able to open Scribus files (.sla) Indesign Information (Carlpedia Page) CompatibilityĪlthough Scribus and Indesign are similar- Indesign's file format (.indd) is proprietary and can NOT be read/opened/imported by Scribus. The work-around for this is to edit your images in GIMP or Photoshop before using them in Scribus. Scribus doesn't have this function, so your files may be large depending on the image qualities used. This function processed multiple times is what allows some documents (pdfs) to take up less space. What this means is that if you resize an image to 1/10th of its size the application gets rid of some data because you're not using it. When saving and editing a file in Indesign, you won't lose data by the inherent "trimming" function. Since Scribus is Open Source, it's free and free for others to contribute to the application, Adobe Indesign however is moving to the Adobe Cloud and is becoming more expensive. Both are used for Desktop Publishing (layout design for brochures, e-books, newspapers, and pdfs). Scribus is an Open Source application that functions very much like Adobe Indesign.
