A small tool for making small publications.
Pocket Zine is an independent project operated by CHEN. It provides free one-sheet, eight-page templates for handwork and short text drafts. There is no account, payment or advertisement.
How this site is made
Software, wording and diagrams were developed with AI assistance. The page layout follows the established one-sheet folding method; source references appear in the folding guide. The product does not generate artwork or text for visitors. What you write is your own.
Checks include page dimensions, page order, rotation, text-fit limits, rendered PDF inspection and browser use. They are software and digital-document checks, not independent professional review or testing on every printer. Make a physical trial before printing a batch.
What happens to your work
Your text stays in this browser tab's memory. We do not save it to an account or send it to a server. Download the text if you want to keep an editable record. Closing or refreshing the page clears the draft.
