You can base your new flatplan on any previous one stored on Blinkplan, and you can choose between keeping just the page structure (eg, three ads followed by an editorial page etc etc) or you can keep all the previous content. The latter option is particularly cool for mags that have a lot of regular pages. You just edit the few that need to change.

Love it!

Just to let you all know, we will - well, I will - Joerg - be in London for the Magazine Publishing Expo on the 11th and 12th of February. Hope to meet some of you in person!

I hope you all had a good New Year!

We have a new feature for you. When you create a new flatplan, you can base the new one on any of your other flatplans - either only the layout, or the layout plus the content - which is essentially a “Save as…” feature.

So if all your issues are layed out in a very similar fashion, you’ll be able to get a good head start on your next issue, and all you need to do is fill in the content, and make adjustments here and there. Please use the Feedback site to let us know if this solves the “Save as…” problem.

Merry Christmas to all you wonderful people - hope you have a good break, and “see” you again in the new year.

I don’t really get what Thanksgiving is, but happy turkey day Americans.

I know this doesn’t have that much to do with magazine flatplans - or nothing at all really - but worth sharing nevertheless. So beautiful and creative.
