Yes, President Panda. it is a huge pain in the ass.
For the poll, I can't say that it is a magazine but it's more of a book/thesis about Touhou. 108 pages recopied (four page per short bond paper) into three books. one to be passed, one as a souvenir, and one that I wish ZUN could sign.
Heh. I remember programming a tool for a local typography to calculate the most efficient page layouts, at the age of 16. If it had to do with pagination, I'd probably give up on programming right there and then :3

I remember dealing with this at one point in school. I forget when, I just remember that it was a pain in the backside. I'd probably end up pulling a Yamame-san if I had to try to figure out how to do it now! XD
For the poll, if I did a fanzine, I'd probably keep it web only. No need to print it, unless it really takes off.
You have no clue how many copies I fucked up when I was trying to print out my doujin. Even after folding a few blank papers into a book shape, numbering them, and then unfolding... I'm glad there are pros for this stuff.
Haha, yeah, that'd be tough. Can't mess up on it, since the customers will complain; too many mistakes, and extra copies have to be printed which costs the printer money. While I'm more involved currently with the office-y parts than the actual printing, having to reprint copies to make up for the mistakes can land a hit on the profits.

I thought to use that as the title but I might get booted by my professor if I did that..... I might add new entries to that by the release of 13.5 and 14.

Eh??
BackIt is a royal pain.Normally, several pages are printed on the same sheet of paper.Ah give uuuuup!!Since you fold these into book form...Front...pagination takes this folding into account for arranging the pages!This pagination looks like it'd be a royal pain.Brain TrainingWhat is pagination!?You fold this into eighths, see.We do that by computer now.Okay, let's try a 16-page pagination as a test.
