Period & sources
Week, month, year, or custom. Sources: activities, events, and trips. Videos are skipped; guest photos and comments with text are included — emoji-only comments and the Social Wall are not. Trip days use the real day date; if an entry has no photos of its own, that day’s photos go in.
Curate stories
Load the pool, pick items, choose a category from the shared list or add a new one, optionally add a QR to an activity, event, or trip (it sits at the end of the text in the layout and the PDF; if there are more than 6 photos it appears automatically), choose the lead article. Tests, keyboard smash, and empty posts without text or a photo are already filtered out; comments are cleaned. An event and its matching activity both stay in the pool.
Design & language
Classic, modern, kids, or AI Layout — plus your own ink, paper, and accent colors. Type for titles/headlines and body: serif, sans, rounded, or mono. Classic uses an italic masthead on light newsprint. AI Layout: the model plans page structure with fixed guardrails (cover, contents, flow/pair/stack); code materializes it — classic/modern/kids stay unchanged. The whole issue in one language.
Crossword
Optional puzzle from the issue content — to solve on paper.
A newspaper front page
Dateline, large masthead, hero photo with caption, then two teaser columns with more space between them. Page 2 is Contents & places: a table of contents with page numbers and an OpenStreetMap map that frames all numbered places from story coordinates with a bit of surrounding context. Inner pages stack like a newspaper: headline, meta, one hero photo, body text. Extra photos only when there is enough room — no thin photo strips. Up to 6 photos per story; every photo from the layout appears in the PDF, the rest via the QR — plus a line for author, date, place, and weather when available.
Full text & quotes
Stories appear in full, uncut. Long articles flow across pages with a continuation. A line from the text or a reader comment becomes a newspaper pull quote in the text; the quoted sentence is not repeated.
AI art-director pass
After the code layout, an optional AI pass reviews each page for newspaper look (alignment, whitespace, photo scale) and may adjust position, size, and type within fixed rules — a clear stack of headline, photo, and text, without photos covering copy or QR codes. You keep the final say in the editor.
A print issue you can hold
The final PDF is A4 and print-ready: print, staple or bind, gift, or hang it up. Digitally, the public short link remains — recipients need no owner login.
Imprint page
Every issue ends with an imprint page using publisher and contact details from Settings → Legal notice.
Layout editor
Pick pages at the top, drag elements, scale from a corner — type size stays fixed (change it only in the right-hand panel); layout and PDF use the same fonts. Drag a photo to pan the crop. Page columns 1–3 and text columns per article — with more space between columns throughout, especially when two stories share a page. Move a whole article to another page. Toolbar typefaces apply to the whole issue. If AI lightly refined the layout, you see a note — you can still move everything. Moving, scaling, and adjusting save automatically. Saving and regenerating do not count as an issue.
PDF & quota
Final PDF by email and download. Four issues in 12 months included; extra issues for purchase. Finalized issues stay in the archive.
Share the PDF
After finalizing, a public short link — copy or pass it on. Recipients need no owner login; they open or save the PDF. You can turn access off again at any time.
