Knowing the difficulties many people have printing double-sided we provide all our character booklets formatted for single-sided printing.

When the booklets first print out, it may look a little odd, perhaps even out of order, but don’t worry - it does all come together into booklet format.

Rest assured, instructions are included in the downloadable game materials for how to assemble these booklets, however if you wanted to see exactly what is involved, and how they look after printing then please read on.

How to make up your character booklets:

1. Print everything off!


2. Do one booklet at a time. Separate your booklet so that the cover is to one side.
   Fig 1.
   
   


3. Fold all your sheets in half so that the printed side is outermost.


4. Put the cover (the one with the picture on) to one side.


5. Gather all the other pages together in a bunch so that the folded edges are on the right and the open edges are on the left.
   Fig 2.
   


6. THIS NEXT STEP IS OPTIONAL (and just for the more pedantic of us).
   If you want to make the booklets look especially neat then use a pair of scissors, or a guillotine to cut approx ½ centimetre from each OPEN edge. Taking care to make sure that the amount taken from each page is identical.

7. Slot these folded pages inside the cover sheet so that the open edges are INSIDE the cover, in the middle where the fold is.
   Fig 4.
   
   


8. Close the booklet and staple twice, once at the top and once at the bottom of the folded edge. This should secure all the pages within the booklet together.

9. Then carry on and do the rest of the booklets!
   

Remember – if you want to personalise your party: make your own booklet covers. Information on how to do this is contained with your “Making the most of your theme” files, and some sample ideas can be found in “personalising your character booklets”.
