I think you may be wrong. After a lot of Googling, I see there is a mail merge
script for Scribus that may work. I need to do more
work on this though. The problem (perhaps) is that it uses a cvs file. My db
won't export a csv file directly.
I only spotted this post by chance, buried in my email box.
This line of research I have followed for some time.
In ScribusGenerator I parked my ideas in post #7 in this thread:-
https://github.com/berteh/ScribusGenerator/issues/167
As I wrote above, ScribusGenerator script can be evolved to draw down
(PHP include) assets into SLA elements from a CRUD (PHP + DB) rather
than csv. But understand that with this approach the csv holds links
to DB and PHP snippets /in a second level of abstraction/.
carto.net was the inspiration (I read it quite some years ago).
But a heck of a lot of studying/hacking is required, hacking mime
types and the like. I have tried to document the workflow I use in
Ubuntu. The configuration can be scripted.
