4 page A5 folded leaflets give you four practical pages for presenting menus, prices, services and detailed information in an organised format. They begin as a flat A4 sheet measuring 210 x 297mm and are folded once through the centre to create a finished A5 size of 148 x 210mm.
The finished size provides considerably more room than A6 while remaining convenient to hand out, display and keep for reference. With a front cover, two inside pages and a back cover, the format works particularly well when information needs a clear beginning, middle and end.
Upload your own print-ready artwork and choose from gloss, silk and uncoated paper stocks.
A5 folded leaflets are well suited to information that needs more room than a compact folded format can comfortably provide. Common uses include restaurant menus, takeaway menus, treatment lists, service guides, price lists, product information, event details and short company brochures.
The two inside pages provide a useful spread for the main content, allowing related information to be viewed together while still being divided into clear sections.
This makes A5 particularly useful for printed material that customers may keep and refer back to, rather than simply reading a short message once.
A5 provides a useful balance between page space and finished size. There is enough room for headings, photographs, prices and supporting text without the leaflet becoming unnecessarily large.
The four-page structure can also make detailed information easier to navigate than placing everything onto the front and back of a flat sheet.
For shorter information or simple service summaries, a 4 Page A6 Folded Leaflet may be more compact. If you need considerably more room for detailed content, a 4 Page A4 Folded Leaflet may be more suitable.
The leaflet starts as a flat A4 sheet measuring 210 x 297mm and is folded once through the centre. This is commonly known as a half fold or bi-fold.
Once folded, the finished leaflet measures A5 and is viewed in portrait format. The outside spread contains the back cover and front cover, while the inside spread contains pages two and three.
A complete 4 page A5 folded leaflet is printed on both sides of the flat A4 sheet.
One side forms the outside spread and the other forms the inside spread. This gives you four separate pages for organising menus, services, prices, images and supporting information in a clear reading order.
Choose from gloss, silk and uncoated stocks depending on the style and intended use of your leaflet.
Gloss can work well for colourful menus and photography-led designs, silk provides a smoother and more understated finish, while uncoated paper offers a natural surface that can suit service guides, information leaflets and designs that may need to be written on.
Select your paper stock and required quantity before uploading your own print-ready artwork.

A 4 page A5 folded leaflet is printed flat as an A4 sheet measuring 210 x 297mm and folded through the centre to create a finished A5 size of 148 x 210mm.
For a leaflet printed inside and outside, artwork should be supplied as two landscape A4 spreads rather than as four separate A5 pages. One spread represents the outside of the leaflet and the other represents the inside.
The fold runs vertically through the centre of each landscape 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 where information or imagery is intended to continue across 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, prices and other essential information should remain at least 3mm inside the finished trim edge.
Keep important wording clear of the centre fold as well. Images or background graphics can cross the fold where the design requires it, but small text and other critical information should not rely on sitting directly over the crease.
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.
A5 gives you useful room for longer information, but the layout should still have a clear hierarchy. Use headings and spacing to separate sections, and check menus, prices and smaller text at approximately the finished printed size before uploading.
Use the 4 page A5 folded leaflet artwork diagram as a visual reference for the flat A4 size, finished A5 size, fold line, bleed and safe area. Checking both spreads carefully before upload can help prevent incorrect page order, unwanted white edges or important information sitting too close to the trim or fold.
