DESCRIPTION¶
Passepartout is an open source desktop publishing application. The goal is to
provide a simple and user-friendly, yet powerful tool for creating printed
material. Passepartout combines a WYSIWYG layout editor with a high-quality
typesetting engine.
You do not use Passepartout for writing text, because it is only a layout
editor. Basically speaking, Passepartout is in the business of taking the
different parts that make up a page, such as text, photos, graphics, and
"gluing" them on piece of paper. Passepartout can import from
several different bitmapped image formats as well as EPS files. you write the
text in your favorite text editor (e.g. Emacs or VI) in an XML-based format.
