Edit: What Docsflow does is allowing InDesign to sync with the gdocs files.

Edit 2: in the end what I need is an online collaborative text tool (cross device) that I can link to a page layout program. Right now my workflow is Google Docs + Adobe InDesign.

Edit 3: Worked around it by using adding my project files to a OneDrive folder and editing the text files through Word online.

Edit 4: I think the open source solution would be having a nextcloud server syncing the .odt files linked in Scribus, but I will have to try to be sure. Thanks all!

        Yea I’m with you, Im not expecting that, it’s just that that’s the workflow I’m using right now and I know there is this program for them, so that was my reference. I could totally use scribus instead of InDesign and ‘?’ instead of Google docs but I don’t know what is out there. From my online searches, I couldn’t find anything to do this apart from Docsflow/wordsflow, one uses Google drive other Word online.

        Ah I think you are giving me open source alternatives to Adobe illustrator! For that I use inkscape. My issue is syncing linked text files to a layout design tool (using inDesign). Let’s say you want to do a magazine you bring image and text all together in that tool, and I would like to be able to write on my phone and having the text updated there, just like you would locally on a pc but with the advantges of an online text processor.
