ARLingPuzzle Post Bulletin

For bulletins, parish sheets and school newsletters

A puzzle for your next issue, every Monday.

Every Monday you get one printable logic puzzle sized for a single newsletter column, with its solution, as a PDF and as a 300 dpi PNG. You print it in your bulletin, in as many copies as you print.

What lands in your inbox

An A4 PDF and a US Letter PDF with the puzzle on page one and the solution on page two, and the same puzzle block and solution block as PNG at 300 dpi, 945 pixels across, for Word, Canva or InDesign. The block is 80 mm wide, which is one column of a two column A4 newsletter, and it is black and white line work with no grey.

A weekly Puzzle Post Bulletin block: the title, the date, a Killer Sudoku grid, the rules and the credit line, printed in black and white

This is the block of Monday 21 September 2026, exactly as it comes out of the file. Nothing here is a mock-up.

How it works

Pay once, then open an e-mail on Monday.

There is no account to make, no app to install and no plugin for your layout program. The whole product is four files a week and the e-mail that carries them.

  1. 1

    Subscribe

    Card or the payment methods Stripe offers in your country. The first sheet arrives right after you pay, whichever day of the week that is.

  2. 2

    Get Monday's e-mail

    Every Monday morning an e-mail arrives with that week's links: two PDFs and two PNGs for each puzzle in your plan. The links do not expire.

  3. 3

    Put it in your issue

    Print the PDF as it is, or drop the PNG into your own layout. Keep the solution for the next issue, or print it upside down at the foot of the page.

The licence

One publication, as many copies as you print.

  • Yes, print itIn one publication of yours: a parish sheet, a school paper, a club newsletter, a works magazine, a printed programme. The print run does not matter, and neither does whether you give it away or sell the publication.
  • Yes, redraw itCrop the block, drop the frame, set the rules in your own type, put the solution somewhere else. It is your page.
  • Yes, the web too, on ProBulletin Pro also covers putting the same puzzle on the website of that one publication, including its PDF edition. The Bulletin plan is print only.
  • No resaleYou may not sell the puzzle on its own, put it in a puzzle book or a puzzle app, or pass the files to another publisher. The puzzle comes with your publication, not instead of it.
  • One publication per licenceTwo magazines from the same house need two subscriptions. If that is awkward for you, write to andrej@arling.sk and we will work out a price rather than lose you.

This is the licence in plain words, and it is the whole of it. There is no separate contract to sign and nothing is watermarked.

What is already made

A year of Mondays, not a promise.

The first 52 weeks are built, measured and waiting, from Monday 21 September 2026 to Monday 13 September 2027. That is 156 puzzles: one a week for Bulletin and three a week for Pro.

The types rotate through ten kinds of logic puzzle: Killer Sudoku, Anti-knight Sudoku, Kakuro, Nonograms, Star Battle, Slitherlink, Hashi, Masyu, Nurikabe and Numberlink. A Pro week never has the same type twice, and over ten weeks every type turns up at each of the three difficulties.

Each puzzle is built by a program that also solves it. The solver is asked to find two solutions; the puzzle is kept only if it finds exactly one, and only if it reached that one by applying rules, never by putting in a number to see whether the grid falls apart later.

Every puzzle that goes out is struck off our register, so it cannot come back in another week, in our puzzle books, in the monthly Puzzle Post issue or in the free daily games. That is checked against our own catalogue when the week is built; it is not a claim about anyone else's puzzles.

Questions

Before you pay.

What exactly do I get each week?

For every puzzle in your plan: an A4 PDF, a US Letter PDF, a PNG of the puzzle block and a PNG of the solution block. Both PDFs have the puzzle on page one and the solution on page two. Both PNGs are 945 pixels wide, which is 80 mm at 300 dpi, on white.

The Bulletin plan gets one puzzle a week, so four files. Bulletin Pro gets three puzzles a week, so twelve.

Will it fit my column?

The block is 80 mm wide. A two column A4 newsletter with 15 mm margins has columns of roughly 85 mm, so it fits with a little air. A three column page has columns of roughly 55 mm; scale the PNG down to that and it still prints at more than 200 dpi, which is sharper than most newsletters need.

Being honest about the limit of that claim: we measured the block in our own finished files, not in your layout. If it does not sit right, write to andrej@arling.sk with your column width and we will send you the block at that width.

When does the e-mail arrive?

The first one right after you pay, with the current week. After that every Monday morning, sent from our own server at 06:00 UTC. If an e-mail does not arrive, write to andrej@arling.sk and we will send the links by hand; we would rather do that than have you wait a week.

Do the links expire?

No. Keep the e-mail and you can download that week again whenever you like. The files sit at long unguessable addresses rather than behind a login, which means there is no password to lose and also that anyone you forward the link to can open it. Please do not forward it.

Can I skip a week or use an older one?

Yes. Nothing is dated inside the puzzle except the line under the title, and that line says the Monday the puzzle was sent, not a deadline. If you print monthly, keep four of them and use them when it suits you.

How do I cancel?

In the Stripe customer portal, where you log in with the e-mail address you paid with. You can cancel or change the plan at any time and it stays active until the end of the period you already paid for. Every week you already received stays yours to print.

Do I get a receipt or an invoice?

Yes. Stripe e-mails a receipt with VAT for every payment, including every renewal. Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. is the merchant of record: you buy from Stripe, which issues the document and settles the VAT, and ARLing supplies the files. If you are buying for a parish, a school or a company, enter its VAT number in the checkout and the document is made out to it.

Can I get my money back?

By law, no, and we want to say that before you pay rather than after. Digital content delivered immediately with your consent carries no right of withdrawal: in Slovakia that is section 19 paragraph 1 letter m) of Act No. 108/2024 Coll. on consumer protection, and across the EU it is Article 16 letter m) of Directive 2011/83/EU. Clicking the payment button is that consent, because the first sheet is sent at once.

That is the law, not our customer service. The sample is free and is a whole real week precisely so you can decide before paying. If a file is broken, a puzzle is wrong, or an e-mail never arrived, write to andrej@arling.sk and we will fix it or send the money back, because that is a different thing from changing your mind.

How is this different from your monthly issue?

The monthly Puzzle Post is a book of 100 puzzles for one reader on an e-ink tablet, 3.90 € a month. This is a licence for a publisher: one puzzle a week, sized for a printed column, with permission to print it for your readers. The puzzles never overlap, because every puzzle that goes into either one is struck off the same register.
