Then set up your layout in scribus (I've never used it so I can't help there). I do my layouts in Quark and tend to create the initial zine layout in readable order to make it easier. Then I go back and rearrange the pages for print. This also allows me to save each so that I can offer downloadable pdfs.

You can and look at my zines to use as examples here http://reclusiveobscenities.blogspot.com/p/zine.html

Then you can print a copy and add your cut and paste elements and be ready for copying.

If you have any specific questions ask away :)
