Fold a zine from your pages.

Half-letter and A5 zines from a stack of pages: printed two-up on a sheet, folded once, stapled at the spine. The page order is worked out for you.

01

Two pages a side

Each face of the sheet carries two zine pages, paired so the fold lands between them.

02

Any page count

Blank pages fill the last sheet, so a 13-page zine still folds cleanly.

03

Home printers welcome

Print double-sided on Letter or A4 and flip on the long edge; the preview shows both faces.

How it works

Three steps.
No form.

The defaults come from your file. Change a setting and the proof updates before you let go of the mouse.

  2. 02Check the front and back faces.
  3. 03Download, print, fold and staple.

Good questions.

What size will my zine be?
Half the sheet: A5 from A4, half-letter from Letter. The sheet is chosen from your page size.
Can I add bleed?
Yes. Set the bleed field to extend artwork past the trim before the fold.
Is the file uploaded?
Everything runs in your browser. The file is never uploaded, and the download comes from the same engine that drew the preview.
