I'm looking for a replacement for MS Publisher. It has been my go-to application for anything that needs a detailed layout for printed materials (e.g., #academicPosters, #flyers, table tents, #businessCards). Now that #Microsoft will stop supporting it in October, I need a new idea.
What is everyone else using for desktop publishing?
#Canva is great for some projects, but the translation to printed materials has issues (like not being able to set margins). I've also tried #InDesign, but that has a steep learning curve and is overkill for what I need.
And no Word or PowerPoint. I've tried those too. This is not what they are designed for.

Ich liebe eigentlich die #DesktopPublishing #PhotoEditing und #VectorEditing Produkte von #Adobe oder #Affinity
Aber unter Linux...? Kennt ihr hier professionelle Software (darf auch was kosten), welche hier helfen können?
#Inkscape geht so für Vektor-Sachen, aber sonst...
