Your problem (I know because I have struggled with this several times) is
that you are trying to use a word processor to do the job of Desktop
Publishing software.
One good alternative is Scribus. And its available for most of the main-
line distros. It will do what you need to do. And the learning curve is
probably less steep than it will be for LaTex.
