'stolen sharpie revolution' is an unequivocably priceless resource, but it's also too much to absorb in one sitting.

as for photocopying, when i am doing hand layout (e.g. not on the computer) I do one sided originals, and make a really good photocopy of them. That first photocopy becomes the 'original' insofar as I make the other copies from it. That way I can put them in the doc feeder tray. Every other original is turned upside down relative to each other (so that it prints in the right orientation...). Then I set the copier to print 1 to 2 sided. Most of the higher end copiers will do this. All of the ones at kinkos will do this. That way I have a neat stack of originals I can send through in a photocopier at any time and walk away.

so how do you get your zine to distros? (i'm curious...)
