Works for me. As free and open source software gets better, I've been buying less and less from Adobe in recent years anyway. Between the GIMP and OpenOffice.org, I pretty much have all the functionality that I used to get from PhotoShop, Illustrator, and FrameMaker. Since it looks as though OpenOffice.org 2.0 will have PDF export with links, I expect to be dropping Acrobat this time next year. One of these days, too, I'll have to check how scribus compares to the high-end layout programs like In-Design.

Virtuous and economical, too - not a bad combo, eh? ;-)
