Simon Janes I use paper. I mean really use it. Making digital backups of my pages. One thing you have to do when you use paper, set and forget about changing your formats. Using 10.5"x8" binder paper (aka loose-leaf filler paper) of substantial weight. When you use both sides of the paper, you really cannot afford to use cheap paper. Lined or not, what really matters is consistent size and weight of the paper. But like a binder, I don't want to fiddle with PDF tools---what I have discovered is the digital "Comic Book" format is perfect for this. Using 7z, you can make a .cb7 archive which is just your images. A digital binder.

🌈 Thomas Rosen I looked it up on wikipedia and the comic-book-format seams like it's just a zip/7z/... with another file extension.

Simon Janes Yes. Very easy to DIY. I'm surprised there isn't a zine-culture rebooting around this.
