Sure thing! Since all our prints go through the printer at A3 size, zine pricing is based on the number of double-sided A3 sheets needed.

Here’s a quick guide to help you work it out:

🧮 Each double-sided A3 sheet = 8 x A5 pages

So, for example:

A 28-page A5 zine needs 4 double-sided A3 sheets
A 58-page A5 zine needs 8 double-sided A3 sheets (58 ÷ 8 = 7.25 → round up to 8)

You’ll need to submit one unique print order per A3 sheet via our Bespoke Risograph Print form.

📦 If you're ordering multiple sets:

Pay for shipping on the first order only
Then select Pick Up on the rest – we’ll combine the shipping manually
Your cart will reset each time the print form is reloaded, so place orders one at a time

✨ You can use our helpsheet for Zine Print Calculations to work out exactly how many sheets and orders you'll need!

We know zine printing can get a bit complex – especially once you factor in the number of inks, double-sided printing, and the growing number of A3 sheets per zine. It’s easy for the artwork to multiply quickly.

If you’d prefer us to handle the setup, just select ‘Artwork Setup’ as an extra on your order 🌈

We’ll take care of the file prep and make sure your print is pagination-perfect.
