1. Multi-page documents? My wife made a brochure but didn't like having to

have two separate files for the outside and inside of her document. Does the file format allow multiple pages? And where is this documented?

Not supported yet. I think SVG does not yet have this, so neither can we.

2. I want to have my grid and other measurements to be in inches. Where

can the default units be defined so when I start up inkscape it shows inches? Where is this documented? (I know how to change it for one session or per document but I want it as the default -- and should not require recompiling.)

Possible in 0.41 (which will be out within days). Open an empty document, change it to inches, and save it as share/inkscape/templates/default.svg.

3. My wife used to use commercial and proprietary software that had

wizards and easy interface for making brochures and greeting cards. Using inkscape in addition to openclipart is a substitute, but still all the layout must be done, images found and saved, resized, etc.

Any thoughts on a wizard or a simple interface to help?

The closest we have right now are SVG tutorials. If you can write a tutorial on designing some specific item, please contribute it to the project.
