help, I'm having trouble when printing, all the borders are white and it messes up the folding process. The pdf occupies well to the extension of the A4 page, but when printing, I have a white border. And this re-scaling messes up the proportions of each zine page...
Quick tip for folks on Linux: Downloading the Windows version and extracting the zip file doesn't always work. Something you can try that works well for me is installing Lutris, and then installing the Zine Maker through Lutris. It has an itch.io integration.
a truly awesome creative tool! made laying out my first mini-zine unintimidating and FUN, which is so not how printing projects usually go for me, looking forward to playing around with this more in the future!
If anyone is having issues saving or loading their zines, try turning off the itch.io desktop app's sandbox mode. Seems like I'm able to load zines fine after that :)
hi! i LOVE this app but i'm unable to import any images :( it comes up with just a blank folder. it also doesn't create a zine folder on my desktop at all, and i don't have avast either
Hi! a zine is an anti-magazine-magazine. It's a booklet, usually smaller and with fewer pages than a magazine. With no economical pursue. Zines are very punk on the aspect of beign easy, cheap to make and very artsy and personal. They can be about anything!

Do you know where files are saved? I can't find them, even in my Wine's desktop folder

Anyone having issues with it thinking you're holding fn on a mac? I can't press "e" without it always bringing up the emoji menu :/
this is happening to me too
Same here... massive bummer! I decided to just have an 'e' on my clipboard/write my text somewhere else then copy/paste.

Published my first thing! Can it be added to the "made with the Electric Zine Maker" collection?

Know what would be pretty neat?🤔 a Linux version in the Appimage format. Dunno if that's planned, but it would be a much appreciated update indeed.🤞🏾
Seconded
Quick question; What is a zine?

Does anyone know what the default font is? (Also, amazing tool! Thank you for making it and sharing it!)
amazing, has a sense of play and experimentation that's really hard to find
