Brochure printing is part of every successful marketing campaign. Give away
brochures at conventions, highlight details about your new collection, or include
them with every new customer purchase. They are an effective, versatile, and
affordable promotional tool.

You need a fold that complements your brand and brochure design. Choose from our
nine available brochure folding formats.

2-Panel Folds
Bifold Brochure
Bi-fold
As its name indicates, this brochure contains two panels with enough space for
lengthy text or large images.

3-Panel Folds
Three-panel folds work best for most brochures. Choose from the following three-
panel folding options: the trifold or letter fold, the z-fold, and the gate fold.
They have just enough space for all the important information about your product or
business.

Trifold Brochure

Gate Fold Brochure

Gate Fold
The gate fold has two cover panels that open up to reveal a larger third panel.

4-Panel Folds

while still keeping them perfectly organized.

Accordion Brochure

This fold is similar to the gate fold, with an extra fold in the center. It is also
known as a closed gate fold.

Double Parallel Fold Brochure

This fold is folded equally in half then folded again in the same direction.

French Fold Brochure

The French fold is folded in half horizontally and then vertically folded in half
to create the four equally sized panels.

toward the left.

Brochures are practical marketing tools used to promote your information-heavy

campaigns. They can be laid out like a take-out menu and contain listings of
different products and services; or function as travel and events guides. Brochures
come in standard and custom sizes. Read on to learn how to standard brochures that
will work best for your business.

Brochure Sizes, Folds, and Sample Designs

The amount of information that you will include determines the brochure size suited
for your business. There are five standard brochure sizes — which you can combine
with five popular types of paper folds. It helps to create an outline of your
content to h ave an idea of the size that best work with your material.

Standard Brochure Sizes

Standard Brochure Folds
The final folded size of your brochure depends on the combination of: flat paper
size, fold, and orientation (horizontal or vertical). We have blank brochure
templates for standard brochures that you can download to guide you in creating a
layout — or you can download the templates below.

Brochure Size for every business

Standard brochure sizes from 5.5" x 8.5" to 8.5" x 14" are used by businesses that
wish to spread information about their products and services. Below are examples of
industries and/or events where we can use these sizes:

Services - A good example of this would be photography studios. These brochures can
feature sample works, special packages and contact numbers.
Medical - informative guides that give summaries of health care facts, medical
conditions, health concerns and general first aid topics.
Real Estate - description of commercial and residential properties and property
information such as the address, property specifications and contact numbers
Trade Fair - participating companies in these events have an opportunity to
communicate with their audience through brochures. They can showcase and
demonstrate their products and services and position their brand among competitors.
Non-Profit Orgs - these orgs use brochures to explain advocacy, history and mission
to gain support from potential benefactors and general public.

On the other hand, the larger brochure sizes; 11” x 17 and 11” x 25.375 are more
appropriate if you want to have more detailed content because some businesses would
require image-heavy content.

Amusement/Theme Park Brochures - a definite need for theme parks to have because
this informs people of featured attractions, rides and other events.
Mini maps - map representations are especially helpful for tourists to guide them
throughout their trip. Ideally, mini-map brochures contain the street names and
popular landmarks. These are displayed on hotel counters and souvenir shops. A more
detailed map may need custom sizing and options.

Tips on Text Layout
One challenge in designing brochures is creating the layout without crowding the
copy and images. You should maximize space, and position the design elements for a
visually appealing design:

Standard Brochure Sizes

It helps to ask opinion from a friend on your font legibility and overall design
before having it printed.

If you need sizes other than the standard options, UPrinting offers custom
brochures up to 11” x 17” for digitally printed runs and 27” x 39” for offset jobs.
All you have to do is to fit in your content, images included and we will make sure
your design is print-ready with our free proofing service. For more information on
brochure printing, call us at 1-888-888-4211 or chat with our friendly
representatives. Our lines are open 24hours from Monday to Friday and from 8am to
9pm on weekends and holidays.

Fonts
Choose easy to read fonts (i.e., Garamond, Helvetica, Times New Roman, or Century).
Use a sans serif font, such as Arial, for captions or small type.
Limit your font choices. Using more than two types of fonts will make your brochure
messy, unprofessional or playful.
Use highlighting techniques – bold, italic and bigger font size — instead of
varying font styles.
Use a bigger text size for headlines and calls to action. Although not always, font
size can be relevant to the importance of information.
Choose font sizes that are proportionate to the size of your brochures. To help you
decide on the font size, assess how many words you want to fill the space with.
Use 12-point font for the body, 10-point font for captions, and 14- to 22-point
font for headlines. These are recommended sizes, but your choices will depend on
the overall look of your design.

Text Alignment
Avoid putting borders on your paragraphs, unless needed.
Break long paragraphs into bullet points. Walls of text can discourage people to
read further and bulleted information is easier to recall.
Use proper typographic alignment (flush left, flush right, justified, and centered)
for a neat layout.
Align design elements — headers, images and text —properly.
Make spacing consistent throughout your design. Remember to leave some white space
on your layout to give your content a balanced look. This helps make your design
easier to read.

Size. Color. Material. It's all here, and more.
