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.
* 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 had
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...

i'm interested in a web-2-print solution, have coded a very basic
script for some testing.

i'm interested in a web-2-print solution, have coded a very basic
script for some testing.
SPIP CMS (spip.net) has some works that might be of interest.
For example the plugin_latex is a plugin made specifically to generate latex
out of the SPIP content, specifically used for the site http://programmer.spip.org,
so as to produce the PDF manual out of this site.

Source code for plugin_latex is here :
http://zone.spip.org/trac/spip-zone/browser/_galaxie_/programmer.spip.org/plugin_latex

As far as i know, it is 90% working so as to produce the complete book out of the complete site.

It uses the textwheel (http://code.google.com/p/textwheel/wiki/TextWheel)
extension for SPIP (http://svn.github.com/Cerdic/textwheel.git/plugins/textwheel/)
so as to transform SPIP markup syntax (such as {{bold}}, {italic}, [link to->url],
frames, code snippets etc) and structure elements like article titles, sections, etc
and into latex code.

One more link :
http://zone.spip.org/trac/spip-zone/browser/_plugins_/latexwheel/wheels/latex/
It is the latex textwheel definition.
latex.yaml is the main translation ruleset
other files are context specific rulesets.
