creating a business card layout in linux.
i need to create a few business card layouts for a friend. Would Scribus be a good choice for such a task? Or would someone suggest something better? I have never used Scribus before.

There's this:
http://gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=254
I haven't installed it so your guess is as good as mine as

It's in the menus for "New" on the writer portion of OO.
File->New->Business Cards
