Colour options
Flyers are always printed in full colour on the front. On the back (or the inside), they can be full colour, black and white, or blank.
Folding
We can supply flyers flat or folded. The various folding options are illustrated on our various flyer product pages. Most flyers are folded. Flyers printed on 170gsm stock or higher will be scored if necessary before folding.
A4 flyers and A3 can be folded in half, or in three — either roll folded or Z folded.
DL flyers are sometimes known as rack cards. They are ideal for placing in the racks commonly used in motel, hotel and other hospitality establishment reception areas. DL flyers are supplied flat. DL flyers are sometimes used as greeting cards, so we have made them available in 300gsm gloss or satin.
Responding to popular demand, we have included what we have called a ‘double DL’ format. These flyers would normally be folded once from 198x210mm to 99x210mm (DL). They are also idea for hospitality industry racks.
A5 flyers are another popular format, These would normally be supplied flat, but could be folded in half. A5 flyers can also be used as greeting cards, so we have made them available in 300gsm gloss or satin.
A very popular format that bridges the gap between single sheet flyers and multi sheet flyers which we offer as booklets, is the six page A4 flyer. The unfolded size of the 6 page A4 flyer is 630x297mm. They are always folded in three — usually roll folded, but you could choose a Z fold. Because of the length of 6 page A4 flyers, they cannot be printed on a conventional offset press. We are pleased to be able to offer smaller quantities of these posters which are printed on a Xeikon digital press. Xeikon presses are reel or web, fed, which means the paper is on a continuous reel, and the length of the sheet is more or less unlimited. The quality is superb. We offer two paper weights only for this format, 150gsm and 250gsm. If you choose other weights, the Abacus will show a zero value.
Multiple designs for the cost of the total ordered
Wherever possible we offer to print more than one design for the cost of the total number ordered. For instance, you could order 250 each of four different designs of A4 flyers, and pay the 1000 A4 flyer rate. Our capacity to offer this benefit has some limitations, based on the presses we use to print the flyers. These limitations are explained below.
A4, A3 and double DL flyers. You can have up to five different designs, single or double sided in any combination (quantities do not have to be equal), provided the total does not exceed 1000 flyers. For quantities over 1000 flyers, you can have equal quantities of two single sided A4 or double DL flyers.
DL flyers. You can have up to six different designs single sided or double sided in any combination (quantities do not have to be equal), provided the total does not exceed 2500. For quantities over 2500, you can have equal numbers of six single sided designs or three double sided designs.
A5 flyers. You can have up to five different designs, either single sided or double sided in any combination (quantities do not have to be equal), provided the total does not exceed 2000 flyers. For quantities over 2000 you can have equal quantities of two double sided or four single sided designs.
We can’t offer the multiple design option for six page A4 flyers.
