I know that this is an old topic, but I had the same question and a.l.e's
response makes this sounds like a job for Kickstarter or (at the very
least) a bounty system. Web 2 Print software is CRAZY expensive just to
get started.

P.S. Why don't y'all sell a Pantone color plug-in to support the project?
I know there has been plenty of talk about GPL and Pantone's
copy-write/trademarks - but if you are fine if just use pipes. Hell, color
definitions are just settings, Scribus reading a file is hardly a
derivative work of Scribus itself. That's why a Wordpress theme's CSS
files are not GPL even though the php and html files are:

hi mr g.
donated half the money of a adobe license, it may be able to do it now!
btw, if your server can run an instance of scribus with its GUI, there
may be easy ways to hack a workable solution... if not, the solution is
still far away in the future...
ciao

hi mr g.
* I found a discussion from 2007 about a 'Scribus Server'.*>**>* Today, as Scribus is much more advanced, how could I use Scribus to *>* build a Web-2-Print system? Did someone ever try to do this?*
no, but if each person interested in running scribus on a server haddonated half the money of a adobe license, it may be able to do it now!
btw, if your server can run an instance of scribus with its GUI, there
may be easy ways to hack a workable solution... if not, the solution is
