Frequently Asked Questions

Leaflets are one of the most cost-effective marketing tools for any business. This FAQ covers sizes, paper, folds, finishes, design, distribution and pricing

Leaflet printing is the production of single or folded printed sheets used for marketing, promotion, events, takeaway menus, product information and direct mail. Leaflets (also called flyers) are one of the most affordable and effective marketing formats.
There's no real difference, the terms are used interchangeably in the UK. Some marketers use 'flyer' to mean a single-sheet promotional handout, and 'leaflet' for any printed informational sheet, but most printers treat them as the same product.
Leaflets are used for direct mail, door-to-door distribution, event promotion, takeaway menus, retail promotions, exhibitions, recruitment, real estate property sheets, charity appeals and product information inserts.

Standard leaflet sizes are A4 (210×297mm), A5 (148×210mm), A6 (105×148mm), A7 (74×105mm) and DL (99×210mm). Custom sizes and shapes (square, die-cut, oversized) are also available.
A5 is the UK's most popular leaflet size, affordable to print and post, large enough to communicate key info, and small enough to handle. DL is the second most popular size, used widely for direct mail and rack cards.
A DL leaflet measures 99×210mm, exactly one-third of an A4 sheet. It's the standard size for direct mail leaflets, rack cards and tri-fold A4 leaflets when folded.

Standard leaflets are printed on 130–170gsm silk or gloss paper, vibrant, professional and economical. Premium leaflets use 250–350gsm card for a card-like, high-quality feel suited to flyers, invitations and luxury direct mail.
Gloss has a high-shine, reflective finish that maximises colour vibrancy. Silk has a smooth, semi-matt finish with low glare and excellent colour reproduction, the most popular choice for general leaflets and easier to read in any lighting.
Yes, matt, gloss and soft-touch lamination can be added for a premium feel and added durability. Laminated leaflets are popular for high-end menus, real estate sheets and luxury direct mail.

Common folds include bi-fold (one fold, two panels each side), tri-fold (two folds, three panels each side), Z-fold, gate fold, roll fold, concertina fold and quad fold. Each suits different content layouts and visual hierarchies.
Tri-fold leaflets fold inward like a letter, hiding the centre panel until opened. Z-fold leaflets fold in a zigzag, revealing all six panels in a continuous strip. Z-fold is better for sequential storytelling; tri-fold for hidden offers.
Yes, folded leaflets are produced in all popular fold styles. Specify the fold type at the point of order, and your printer will provide a template to ensure your design accounts for fold lines correctly.

Lead with a strong headline, use one clear call-to-action, include benefit-led bullet points, use professional photography or illustration, and keep the design uncluttered. Always include contact details, your URL and a clear next step for the reader.
Supply a print-ready PDF with 3mm bleed, CMYK colour, embedded fonts and 300dpi images. Most printers also accept high-resolution AI, EPS, JPEG and TIFF files. Free templates are widely available for standard sizes.

Digital printing allows orders from as few as 50 leaflets, while litho printing typically starts at 1,000 for the best per-unit value. Bulk runs of 5,000+ leaflets dramatically reduce the cost per piece.
Standard turnaround is 2–4 working days. Express same-day and next-day leaflet printing is widely available for urgent campaigns and last-minute events.
Pricing depends on size, paper, quantity and folding. Leaflets are one of the most cost-effective marketing tools, bulk orders deliver excellent per-piece economics. Always request a quote for your exact spec.
