Product description
A4 accordion-fold brochure printing
An A4 accordion-fold brochure uses two parallel folds in opposite directions. The three equal panels open in a zigzag shape, making the content easy to view panel by panel or as one continuous composition. Unlike a roll fold, no panel is enclosed inside another.
This construction is suitable for timelines, service stages, event programmes, menus, maps, product groups and tourist guides. Full-colour printing on both sides gives six usable panels, while the compact folded size remains convenient to distribute and store.
Preparing the layout
All three panels normally have equal widths, but the project must still follow the supplied production template. Keep key text and logos away from fold lines, add bleed and check the reading order on both sides. We will review the artwork before printing and precision folding.
