Yes. Your license includes use in both the print and digital editions of the subscribing paper.

Each column is uploaded as part of a post that will be available in your Payhip account. The post will be clearly dated. Simply download and open the zip file. All columns are uploaded at least one week in advance, so there’s no last-minute scrambling.

No. Licensing is month-to-month and can be canceled at any time. You may continue to run the content provided through the end of the monthly term you have paid for.

Yes. You must have a license for each paper that you run Roko Puzzles content in. The more papers you have, the less you pay per paper.

Note that the bundle already offers a savings, but there is an additional savings per-paper if you want multiple licenses for the bundle. Please contact me if you do not see your needs reflected in a pre-set subscription offering.

The puzzles column is flexible and can be placed once in whatever issue you choose.

This week in history is dated and will only apply to the appropriate week. At the moment it runs Thursday - Wednesday, but I am working on expanding that option.

NOTE: To prevent confusion (and the possibility of re-running the same content) uploaded content does not remain available to download forever.

Puzzles currently remain posted for three weeks. History columns remain posted for two weeks.

Licensing is non-exclusive, meaning it will run in other papers around the country. I will try to offer exclusivity to your region if you are taking on a multi-paper license.

Yes. Discounted pricing is available for publishers licensing the columns across multiple weekly papers.

All columns offered here feature original content that is only available through Roko Puzzles. My name is Marc Rokoff and I'm a professional puzzle and activity book creator / publisher with over 30,000 books sold. You cannot license this material anywhere else.

Just to be clear, your subscription provides you with a syndication license for your paper, meaning other papers may publish the same material. But no other distributor is providing this content. I offer fresh, original "Roko Puzzles" content distributed to you weekly.

No, not at this time. Columns are provided in a press-ready PDF format. Moving forward, (Mid-July 2026) I will be offering content as a complete PDF that you can just drop into your paper, and also as individual PDF files of each puzzle to facilitate layout customization.

However, I encourage you to reach out with any modifications you would like to see. If enough people request the same thing, I will definitely implement that change. I will also gladly plan out special themed material if you get your requests in 2-3 weeks ahead of time.

With an active subscription, you receive:

• Weekly delivery of the licensed column(s), provided at least one week in advance.
• Press-ready PDF files for easy layout placement.
• Rights to publish the content in both print and digital editions for the subscribing paper.
• Simple, month-to-month licensing with no long-term contract.

The subscription license is intended for use by a single weekly newspaper. Discounted pricing is available for publishers licensing the columns across multiple papers. Please contact me if you're looking for a multi-paper license.

Yes! Please contact me and I will gladly send you some files.

Here ya go!
