I find Scribus extremely *meh* to use. But it's still a better long-term option than Affinity IMO, just because it doesnt leave you tied to a format for which support can disappear.

07.11.2025 10:57 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Obviously this isn't really much worse than InDesign, but InDesign (or a successor) is a bit more likely to still be around in a decade's time, plus InDesign has IDML export which is supported by other software such as Scribus (not 100% accurately, but close enough you can fix any errors)
07.11.2025 10:56 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The thing that makes Affinity a no-go for me is that it uses its own unique file format and has online licensing (even for the free version). So if they pull the licensing server you've potentially lost the software AND have no way of opening your source files in anything else.

I would say contact this etsy store www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1...
They seem to be offering to do customs as well as the ones listed.

08.11.2023 22:52 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0So, after spending time figuring that out and what woudl be needed to do it (most likely a serial terminal app to type into that sends the keystrokes to the destination), I finally got around to asking myself why the fuck I would need this
(cont)
I know I can build that adapter by doing something like USB to Serial TTL into an Arduino into destination USB as HID mouse/keyboard device
(cont)
Today in my random wanderings in my mind, I found myself wondering if I can output a PS/2 (or USB) keyboard signal via an adapter. So source PC USB -> adapter -> destination PC USB pretending to be keyboard/mouse
