These are nice! I dropped a link on the FIST TTRPG discord channel, hopefully that sends some clicks your way. Trifolds are becoming the gold standard for mission/scenario design over there.
I've always found the tri-fold pamphlet adventure to be a great format: portable, easy to read, and concise. This template is a very accessible way to start designing in this format without having to purchase specific publishing software.
NOTE: The text columns appeared misaligned in Firefox but worked fine when exported. They appear fine in Chrome.
I tested this out in a few different browsers and you're right - it displays incorrectly in Firefox and Safari, even though the PDF export still comes out fine. That seems to be due to how those two browsers render the fonts - they increase the size slightly, which pushes the layouts out. I'll add some browser notes to the page here about all that.
UPDATE: I have edited the template to work in all major browsers, so it should be good to go for everyone now.

Oh, awesome - thanks for sharing the template! If you or anyone in the FIST community have ideas for improvements here then I'm happy to hear them.

I agree about the tri-fold format - it's very usable and so simple for anyone to print at home.
Thanks for the note about Firefox - I'll do some cross-browser testing and update where needed.

As a Firefox user, thank you very much! 😊
