A zine in eight small pages. Fold it, cut it once, and it becomes a book.
Front
- Fold
- Cut once
- Push
Fold it in five steps
- Print one page, landscape, at 100% (not "fit to page").
- Fold it in half the long way and unfold. Fold it in half the short way, then fold each end back to the middle, and unfold.
- Fold it in half the short way again and cut along the dashed line, from the fold to the middle only.
- Open it, fold it the long way with the pages outside, and push the two ends together. The cut opens into a diamond.
- Keep pushing until it lies flat as a booklet, and fold it closed with the front cover on top.

How to use it
- The top row prints upside down on purpose. Once folded, every page reads the right way up.
- Write or draw on it before you fold, or fold it first to see which page is which, then unfold and fill it in.
- Photocopy the finished sheet to make more copies. That is how zines have always been shared.
