148mm square flyers offer a distinctive alternative to traditional rectangular formats. Measuring 148 x 148mm, the equal proportions create a balanced layout that works especially well for bold graphics, centred designs, photography and promotional messages that benefit from a more visual presentation.
Upload your own print-ready artwork and choose from gloss, silk and uncoated paper stocks. Square flyers can be printed single or double sided and used for a wide range of promotional, event and information-led designs.
Square flyers work particularly well when the design itself is an important part of the message. Common uses include event promotions, special offers, product launches, invitations, announcements, menus, vouchers and branded handouts.
The format is also well suited to artwork inspired by square digital layouts, where large images, centred typography or strong blocks of colour form the main focus. This can make a square flyer feel noticeably different from a standard A5 or A6 leaflet when handed to a customer or placed on display.
The main appeal of a square flyer is its shape. Because the width and height are equal, the design feels balanced and can lend itself naturally to centred layouts, large photographs and bold headlines.
Square flyers are also useful when you want printed material to stand out simply because it does not follow the familiar proportions of A-series paper. That can make them a good choice for campaigns where appearance and visual identity are especially important.
At 148mm square, the format offers more design space than an A6 flyer while remaining compact and easy to handle. If your artwork relies on long vertical sections or detailed price lists, an A5 flyer or DL flyer may provide a more suitable layout.
A square layout encourages a different design approach from portrait or landscape flyers. Centred headings, large product images, symmetrical layouts and strong visual elements can all work particularly well.
Because there is no longer a dominant vertical or horizontal direction, the content should have a clear focal point. Avoid simply taking artwork designed for an A-series flyer and cropping it into a square, as this can leave the composition feeling cramped or unbalanced.
Single-sided square flyers are well suited to simple promotional designs, invitations and announcements where the complete message can be shown on one face.
Double-sided printing gives you extra space for supporting information without changing the distinctive square format. The reverse can be used for contact details, prices, terms, directions, event information or a second promotional message.
Choose from gloss, silk and uncoated stocks depending on the look and purpose of your design.
Gloss can suit colourful photography and bold promotional artwork, while silk offers a smoother, more understated finish. Uncoated paper provides a natural surface and can work well for invitations, text-led designs and artwork where a less glossy appearance is preferred.

148mm square flyers have a finished size of 148 x 148mm. When preparing your artwork, the file should include the required bleed beyond the finished edge and keep important content safely inside the trim area.
We require 2mm bleed on every edge, giving an overall artwork size of 152 x 152mm. Background colours, photographs and graphics intended to continue to the edge of the finished flyer should extend fully into this bleed area.
Important text, logos and other essential elements should be positioned at least 3mm inside the finished edge. Keeping them within this safe area helps prevent important content from appearing too close to the trim after finishing.
Artwork should be created at the correct dimensions, with images ideally supplied at 300dpi at their final printed size. This helps photographs, logos and detailed graphics remain clear when printed.
Where possible, prepare artwork using CMYK colour rather than RGB. Screens display colour in RGB, while commercial printing typically reproduces colour using CMYK. Because the two colour systems work differently, some colours may appear slightly different in print compared with how they look on screen.
It is also important to design specifically for the square proportions. If existing artwork has been created for A5, A6 or another rectangular format, simply resizing or cropping it may alter the balance of the design. Repositioning text and images for the square canvas will usually give a better result.
Use the square flyer artwork diagram as a visual reference if you are unsure about the correct dimensions, bleed or safe area. Checking these details before uploading can help prevent unwanted white edges, cropped artwork or important elements sitting too close to the finished edge.
