ZineBase is designed as a practical, ready-to-use starting point for creating your own zine in Adobe InDesign. The file includes predefined paragraph styles and character styles for common text elements, along with fully set-up pages, margins, and layout structures to help you work quickly and consistently. Where possible, quick keys and shortcuts are built into the styles and workflows to streamline formatting and reduce repetitive manual work.

After you download it, look through the template for examples and “how-to” information.

ZineBase is meant to be torn apart and redone as you need it. I have only included a basic setup as a starting point.

ZineBase is a work in progress. I am still updating it.
