Where can I find Scribus for dummies?

I've downloaded the software and it's confusing and not very user-friendly. The wiki is full of terms that I'm unfamiliar with and all I want to do is know how to lay out my pattern template so that I have a more professional look to my crochet patterns.
I do know about the manual - it's just kind of pricey. I may have to break down and buy it. Thanks!


there is a published scribus manual (book). there is no pdf.
