Hello! To answer your question, Ash, our Production and Shipping Mod, received the proof of the physical zine on July 14 after we had remedied the technical errors within the file that our printer brought to our attention. However, after going over the contents of the proof as a team, we decided that the fixes that had been made to the zine file were not to our satisfaction when translating them from digital to physical, especially since we noticed the presence of a lot more errors in the file than what was initially pointed out to us by the printer. Thus, we made the decision to look over the file one more time so to be able to fix the formatting of the zine.

After redoing the entire formatting of the zine so that we would no longer have to work with corrupted/incorrectly formatted files, Mira, our Graphics Mod, got back to us with the newly updated zine file with the final layout on July 31. Ash had then sent over this file to the printer for a new proof that we could be satisfied with before going into production. Unfortunately, we are still waiting to hear back from the printer, but once we do and we receive the new proof, we will be all set to go into production. Hope that update helps!
