I wanted to make something with the facebook Discordians, and this is what I got:

I like it.  It's a fun riff on the stuff in the Principia without rehashing the same thing.  Good thing to leave hanging around with a pope card stapled to it.

Is there a version of this that works as a trifold? It seems like everything would be in the wrong order if I printed this and folded it up.

It doesn't? I guess I should have actually printed it out and tried.

After some testing with a piece of paper (I don't have access to a printer right now), I think it works if you fold it the other way. Usually there would be a fold on the left of the cover of the leaflet, and the end of the paper on the right. Now you want the fold to be on the right of the cover.

If you want a changed version I'll be able to make one for you on Tuesday.

It works fine as a Z-Fold

I love it btw!  Especially the last bit about burning the pamphlet. 


One thing for the us over here in the States...While it might be a few extra steps for us to cut down an 11x17 (tabloid) size paper to A4 size, it would be even sweeter if you could make a version that's 8.5x11 (letter) size.  :)

I tried fitting to print but you can see how the folds don't line up very neatly and there's a huge margin on the edges.

Hell, I'd even be happy to adjust it for 8.5x11 (if it's not convenient for you to find that paper size) -- if you're able to provide the source file.

Didn't think about that and I'll be happy to do it. You will have to wait till Tuesday though, when I'm back at the PC with the source files.

I guess thinking about these things in advance comes with experience.

I've decided I like the weird fold, and that I am lazy, so I'm sticking to that.

But I have adjusted it to fit on letter paper:

I hope that works.
