Brightbay Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Hi I am very new to Affinity and would like recommendations for a template for a magazine I'm putting together for a UK not-for-profit for their members. Ideally I'm after a template for an A5 mag, but A4 if nothing else is out there. Features-led, 24 pages. Can anyone suggest anything that might be suitable? I'm after a template because I don't have the skills to create my own mag, but feel confident enough to work with a template. Thanks Maya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Features-led, 24 pages. Are you wanting to get a hardcopy magazine as the final result? If so, as far as I can tell, there would seem to be two options. Either print on A4 and fold each sheet down the middle and then use two staples to form the result. So 6 pieces of A4 paper printed both sides, then folded and stapled, or print on A5 and bind with a side binding of some sort. So 12 pieces of A5 printed both sides and then bound at a long edge, probably at the left side. What do you have in mind please?
