(Note: I made the template after I made the calendar for 2020. Other great apps like QuarkXPress are Affinity Publisher (Paid), Adobe InDesign (Paid), Microsoft Office Publisher (Paid) and Adobe. The best alternative is Scribus, which is both free and Open Source. My Question is: has anyone put up a web site where members can get and share there templates? If there is a site could you please let me know? If you would like to see a finished calendar drop me a line and I will send it to you and the template. There are more than 10 alternatives to QuarkXPress for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Mac, Linux, Online / Web-based and Chrome OS.

After becoming a huge hit among users, the latest version is out for Windows and Mac. Currently the stable branch is the 1.4.x series. The Scribus file format is XML-based and open. In our development version lots of things may be regularly changing as we fix issues and introduce new features. Scribus has many unexpected touches, such as powerful vector drawing tools, support for a huge number of file types via import/export filters, emulation of color blindness or the rendering of markup languages like LaTeX or Lilypond inside Scribus. For almost all production work, we recommend that you use the stable version. ID no longer worked so I thought of purchasing the program and found out it was to expensive AND I had to pay a fee each month to Adobe to us it. Scribus was originally developed for Linux, and is now a major publishing tool. Scribus is available for many operatings systems and comes in basically two flavors, stable and development.
