I still can't figure out how to construct a pocketmod. I used to use Quark Xpress, but have since lost access to it. I can't make heads or tails of the online app found at the pocketmod site, and am having trouble adapting to Adobe InDesign because it's so different than what I'm used to. Is it okay if I put the finished rules online in the forums while I try to puzzle through this?

If you still have time: save your file as PDF, make sure that the font is big enough and all of it fits on less then 8 pages.
Go to pocketmod.com and download the PDF to PocketMod Converter on the right. Run it, choose a file, choose paper size (letter for US, a4 for EU) and click the button to convert - and voila!
I have done my game like that, thanks to libreOffice being able to export to .pdf. The benefit of using converter vs a word/inDesign template is that you can easily make both a4 and letter size.

If you have any questions - ask, I will be online for few h now and I will be checking the forums.

When all you have is a gun that fires windows, every problem looks defenestratable.
