As Some of you know, I've recently been inspired to start my own Zine. But after hours of exploring Microsoft word and MS publishers i am still no closer to a solution. and the guys in the "Printers" group don't seem to be talking. At present it looks like the only way to do it is to scale down the pic/article to 1/8 size, print it, cut it, paste it on a blank sheet of paper, and then do this seven more times with each pic/article. I'm willing, but i don't have much time these days and i sure don't want to be on issue #12 and have someone tell me "You know you can just do THIS, right?" Does anybody know if there is an easier way to print a Zine?

Cool, thanks. As soon as i get done moving i'm gonna try to download it. I have to get my comp fixed though. I got a virus and now i can only get online using safe mode.:(
You can get a copy of Paint Shop Pro 8 for pretty cheap on Ebay. Some people call it 'The Poor Man's Photo Shop'. I use it all the time, it's a nice program.
Good luck with your Zine, and if there is anything I can do to help, let me know:)
God bless you,
Gerry
Thank you and i will look for paint shop 8. I don't need it to be too fancy i just need it to get the job done.:) I probrably won't get it from ebay though. I can't really buy stuff online. But i'm sure i can find it somewhere.:)
Personally I just use image editors and do everything digitally. Make a pdf or something and print that. I'm a photoshop man myself (even though that's not supposed to be recommended for text-heavy projects) but i'm sure there's some decent free software out there if you just give a google... i think.
Hmmm......I was hoping to do it at home but i guess its off to the copiers i go.:):) And i am gonna need to learn Photoshop, big time. And i will , as soon as i learn what a WACOM tablet is and where i can get one. LOL And building a team will probrably be the easiest part of this whole endeavor. Lots of kind people willing to help out.
I'll try that ,thanks. But i'm pretty new to image editors and photoshop and i don't even know what a pdf is, but the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step........or something like that.

I've never used it myself, but it's got good reviews though.
Take care & God bless you,
