Strips are a fifth of the sheet's long edge and its full height: about 59 × 210 mm from A4 and 84 × 297 mm from A3 if your printer takes it.
Why make a strips at home
Strips are perfect for bursts: the same two faces pulling four expressions, a dog mid-jump, a slow-motion confetti throw. Bookmarks get a photo, a line of text and a punch circle for a ribbon.
Five strips use five pages, well within the free limit.
Five from one sheet
Each strip is a fifth of the sheet: about 59 × 210 mm from A4. Cut marks at both edges keep every strip the same width.
Booth or bookmark
Four-frame and three-frame booth strips, a photo-and-quote bookmark and a full-bleed bookmark, mixed however you like.
One side only
Glossy photo paper works because nothing prints on the back.
Party favours in minutes
Make one sheet per guest or per table and hand them out at the end of the night.

Before you print
- Best paper weights for printing zines and photo booklets at home
Which gsm to buy for zines, booklets and accordion albums on an inkjet or laser: 80 to 250 gsm explained, tray limits, glossy vs matte, scoring and grain.
- Actual size vs fit to page: why scaling ruins zines and booklets
“Fit to page” shrinks your print and shifts the centre so folds miss the panels. Why it happens, the 100 mm ruler check, and the setting to use.
- What resolution do photos need for a printed album? (the dpi maths)
Pixels needed for an A5 page or a zine panel at 200 and 300 dpi, why phone photos are fine and screenshots are not, and what a low-res warning means.
Strips questions
How do I cut the strips straight?
Use the tick marks at the top and bottom edges: line a ruler up with both and cut with a craft knife, or use a paper trimmer.
Can I make bookmarks double-sided?
Not yet. Print on heavy card so the blank back looks intentional, or glue two strips back to back.
What size is a strip?
One fifth of the sheet's long edge by its full height: about 59 × 210 mm from A4 and 56 × 216 mm from US Letter.
