4 page 148mm square folded leaflets provide a balanced format for combining photographs, headings and useful information across four separate pages. They begin as a flat sheet measuring 296 x 148mm and are folded once through the centre to create a finished size of 148 x 148mm.
The square format gives the finished leaflet a distinctive appearance while still providing a practical front cover, two inside pages and a back cover. It works particularly well for visual information where photographs and design are just as important as the supporting text.
Upload your own print-ready artwork and choose from gloss, silk and uncoated paper stocks.
Square folded leaflets are well suited to product showcases, venue information, hospitality guides, event details, property information, service introductions and other printed material where strong imagery forms an important part of the design.
The two square inside pages provide a wide 296 x 148mm spread when opened, giving photographs, illustrations and related information room to work together across the centre of the leaflet.
The format can also be useful when you want your printed material to look noticeably different from a conventional A-series or DL leaflet.
The equal width and height of each finished page creates a balanced layout that works particularly well with centred headings, large photographs and designs built around a strong visual focal point.
The four-page structure also lets you separate the cover from the main information, keeping the front relatively uncluttered while using the inside spread for more detailed content.
If your information is mainly text, lists or prices, an 4 Page A5 Folded Leaflet may provide a more conventional reading format. Square leaflets are especially useful where presentation and imagery are important.
The leaflet starts as a flat sheet measuring 296 x 148mm and is folded once through the centre. This is commonly known as a half fold or bi-fold.
Once folded, each finished page measures 148 x 148mm. The outside spread contains the back cover and front cover, while the inside spread contains pages two and three.
A complete 4 page square folded leaflet is printed on both sides of the flat 296 x 148mm sheet.
One side forms the outside spread and the other forms the inside spread. This gives you four equal square pages for combining photographs, headings and supporting information in a clear sequence.
Choose from gloss, silk and uncoated stocks depending on the style and intended use of your leaflet.
Gloss can suit colourful photography and image-led designs, silk provides a smoother and more understated finish, while uncoated paper offers a natural surface that can work well for information-led designs or leaflets that may need to be written on.

A 4 page square folded leaflet is printed flat at 296 x 148mm and folded through the centre to create two finished 148 x 148mm square pages on each side.
For a leaflet printed inside and outside, artwork should be supplied as two 296 x 148mm landscape spreads rather than as four separate square pages. One spread represents the outside of the leaflet and the other represents the inside.
The fold runs vertically through the centre of each spread. Use the artwork diagram alongside as a guide to the flat size, finished size, fold line, bleed and safe area.
For a fully printed 4 page folded leaflet, supply:
Check the page order carefully before uploading, particularly if photographs, backgrounds or other design elements continue across the centre of the inside spread.
We require 2mm bleed around the outer edge of each spread. Background colours, photographs and graphics intended to continue to the trimmed edge should extend fully into this bleed area.
Important text, logos and other essential information should remain at least 3mm inside the finished trim edge.
Important content should also be kept clear of the centre fold. Photographs and background graphics can continue across the crease where required, but small text, logos and other critical details are better positioned away from the fold.
Artwork should be created at the correct dimensions, with photographs and other raster images ideally supplied at 300dpi at their final printed size.
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.
Square layouts often use centred elements, borders or symmetrical designs, so positioning deserves particular attention. Avoid placing narrow decorative borders very close to the trim, as small finishing variations can make an otherwise even border appear unbalanced.
Use the 4 page square folded leaflet artwork diagram as a visual reference for the 296 x 148mm flat size, finished 148mm square pages, fold line, bleed and safe area. Checking both spreads carefully before upload can help prevent incorrect page order, uneven borders or important information sitting too close to the trim or fold.
