Full Circle Magazine is a free distribution Portable Document Format magazine that was launched in April 2007. The magazine is an independent publication and is not affliated with Canonical Ltd., the sponsors of the Ubuntu operating system. It is advertising-supported and relies on volunteer writers for much of its editorial content.[1][3][4]

The publication is aimed at users of the Ubuntu operating system and all its dervatives, including Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Edubuntu. It focuses on product reviews, community news, how-to articles, programming and troubleshooting tips. It is available in multiple languages; the first edition was produced in English, Estonian, Romanian, Italian, Russian, Spanish, Galician, Dutch and Indonesian, but more recent issues have been available only in English, French and Russian.[3][5][6][7]
