Can I preview my Brochure before it goes to print? 

Yes, when you upload artwork for us to print, our automated Online Proofing Tool runs a series of checks and presents the artwork back to you as a proof for your approval.

It’s easy:

1. Create and upload your artwork, using our Brochure templates and guidelines 2. We’ll run a checklist to identify any errors 3. Your Brochure will be displayed on-page, ready for you to view and approve

How should I supply artwork for each type of Brochure? 

Often the main cover design of the Brochure will be wrapped around the spine. In this case, we will automatically enlarge the cover design to accommodate the spine – no action is needed from you. Another option is to create a spine with its own bespoke design. Our team can also help with this, but we’ll need to work with you on it. Our experts will:

Calculate spine width, based on paper type and number of pages
Establish the new dimensions needed for the spine so you can supply separate spine artwork

How effective are Brochures in marketing?

A thoughtfully crafted brochure can convey your business’s identity and values in a way that feels real and memorable, creating a lasting impression on your audience.

What is the difference between a Brochure and a Booklet? 

Brochures and Booklets are two names for the same product, so there is no difference between them. Whatever name you choose to use, as long as you're looking for multiple sheets of folded paper bound together, you're in the right place.

What is the difference between a Pamphlet and a Brochure? 

‘Pamphlet’ is a term that was historically used for non-commercial publications concerning politics, religion or charity. ‘Brochure’ is a more modern term for an effective marketing tool used by a wide range of businesses.

Pamphlets also tend to be just a few pages long and aren’t bound. Brochures can have as many pages as you like and are usually sealed together.

How many pages can I include in my Brochure? 

It depends on the type of Brochure you order. Each one can contain:

Stapled Brochures - between eight and 64 pages
Perfect Bound Brochures - between 20 and 254 pages
Wiro Bound Brochures - between 20 and 254 pages
Folded Brochures - between four and six pages depending on the type of fold

Please note: The number of pages in a Stapled Brochure must be divisible by four. The number of pages in a Perfect Bound Brochure or Wiro Bound Brochure must be divisible by two.

What Does 'pp' Mean? 

‘PP’ means ‘printed pages’, we use this when referring to your page numbers through your Brochure design. For example ‘64pp’ would be a 64-paged Booklet.

Why can I not have an odd number pp? 

The number of pages in a Stapled Brochure must be divisible by four. The number of pages in a Perfect Bound Brochure or Wiro Bound Brochure must be divisible by two. Please make sure your Brochure design is within these requirements.
