"The flowfram package enables you to create frames in a document such that the contents of the document environment flow from one frame to the next in the order in which they were defined. This is useful for creating posters or magazines, indeed any form of document that does not conform to the standard one or two column layout."

"And, I wouldn't be true to myself if I didn't plump for the ConTeXt macro package as an alternative to LaTeX. If you want to write up a structured document, but it's not for a conference proceedings or journal, I would say that it's more worth putting the time in to learn the basics of ConTeXt than, say, the Memoir class in LaTeX. ConTeXt's way of separating form from content feels much cleaner than LaTeX, and I feel like the learning curve for ConTeXt has a fairly constant and gentle slope, rather than a hockey-stick-like bend for when you want to customise a Class file."
