Leaflet printing in Telford
- 1Eight finished sizes, flat or folded. A4, A5, A6 and DL, plus a trifold and three half folds.
- 2Twelve papers, silk or gloss. 100gsm through to 350gsm, single or double sided.
- 3Printed and folded here. Nothing gets sent out to another site to be finished.
Which fold, how many, and when do you need them?
Four flat sizes,
four folds
Pick the one that suits the job and we will do the folding, because all our finishing happens in this building.
| Size | What you get |
|---|---|
| A4 | Flat sheet, the full page handout |
| A5 | Flat sheet, half of an A4 |
| A6 | Flat sheet, postcard scale |
| DL (1/3 A4) | Flat sheet, a third of an A4, tall and narrow |
| Trifold to DL | Folded twice, finishes at DL, 6 printed pages |
| A3 half fold | Folded once, finishes at A4, 4 printed pages |
| A4 half fold | Folded once, finishes at A5, 4 printed pages |
| A5 half fold | Folded once, finishes at A6, 4 printed pages |
Every flat size prints single or double sided. Folded formats are printed both sides, because the inside has to carry something.
The A series is the international paper standard: A3 is 297 by 420mm, A4 is 210 by 297mm, A5 is 148 by 210mm and A6 is 105 by 148mm. DL is a third of an A4.
Flyer printing is the same job with a date on it
Leaflet, flyer, handout. They are the same job to us, and our own order form calls it Leaflets and Flyers, so ask for whichever word you use.
Where a flyer differs is the deadline. Doors open on a fixed night, so the print has to be in your hands before it. Digital printing needs no drying time, so nothing sits waiting between the press and the guillotine and we can have an order processed and completed quicker than other processes will manage. Within the hour, if it has to be.
No artwork yet? Our designers do flyers to advertise an event as readily as they do a basic logo or a complete corporate rebrand, and their knowledge of the printing process means the artwork works on paper and not only on screen. See the design service
Twelve papers, seven silk and five gloss
Silk, seven weights
Gloss, five weights
Sides
Not sure which paper?
That is a perfectly good answer, and it is the first option on our own order form. Tell us where the leaflets are going, who is handing them out and whether they need to survive a pocket, and we will tell you which weight suits and what it does to the price.
What do 4pp and 6pp mean?
pp is printed pages. Fold an A4 once and you get an A5 with four pages to fill, which is why it is listed as A4 half fold to A5 4pp. Fold a sheet twice so it finishes at a third of an A4 and you get six, listed as trifold to DL 6pp.
Not sure which way a fold should run, or where the fold will land on your design? Send the file and we will tell you before it goes near the press.
How many can I order?
Anything from a single print to thousands. There are no fixed bands and no minimum: the quantity box on our quote form is a plain number, so put in the figure you actually need rather than rounding up to hit a price break.
Small runs are deliberate, not an afterthought. We can offer competitive pricing for runs ranging from single prints to thousands, so a run of fifty is as real an order here as a run of thousands.
Supplying your own artwork
Please supply artwork print ready where you can: high resolution, 300dpi recommended, with bleed and crop marks. We check it before anything goes on the press, and if something is not right we will tell you what to change rather than print it wrong.
If you would rather we made it, our designers can. See the design service
