8-pages mini-zines directly from Scribus

[hvfrancesco]

I made a quick and simple script to produce 8-pages folding mini-zines directly from inside a Scribus session.

Interesting project !

base.py is OK when no document is open ; but zinezine.py produces the following error (on Linux Ubuntu 22.10, with Scribus 1.5.8, 2022/01/22 version) :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 11, in <module>
  File "<string>", line 8, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyPDF2'

( exact line numbers might vary because I added a comment line as a 4th line so as to source these scripts )

@JLuc , did you install PyPDF2?

ciao francesco

thanks for your pull request.

i've made some comments in the code (as you see above)... what do you think about them?

on top of it:

• i would like to see the base.py file renamed to something like create-scribus-document.py
• you should name your variables with underscores, not with camel case (make_zine instead of makeZine). that's a pretty strong convention in python (which, of course, the Scribus API does not follow...)

i wish you a wonderful evening
