Alternative desktop publishing for rulesets?

[trevorld]

• In particular could possibly aid in Enhanced zine support #13 and/or Ruleset accessibility #14

Some possibilities could be:

• https://github.com/sile-typesetter/sile

  • In particular has support for "frames"
  • Can import markdown/djot

• https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Main_Page

  • https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Imposition

• https://www.scribus.net/

• https://www.speedata.de/en/

• https://github.com/jgm/djot/blob/main/doc/cheatsheet.md

  • Would need to write {knitr} hooks for djot?
  • https://github.com/kmaasrud/djoc
  • Can also be used with sile (see above)

• Write the zine pages directly in R (can "efficiently" do entire page(s) with cairo_pdf()) and put in appropriate viewports
