Let us look at exactly what leaflets and flyer’s are. The answer is the same. In the US, a leaflet is called a flyer as well as in the united kingdom a flyer is a leaflet, but what exactly are leaflets all about?

Leaflets are an inexpensive way to get your message to the person in the street, usually in vast numbers.

Due to the amount of leaflets printed, the cost can be quite cheap and very effective.

Options in colour is common, you can have leaflets printed either in 1,2 o4 4 colors although typically 4 colors is the norm. If you opt to have Pantone colors in your leaflet design then you may require 5 colour print which is significantly more expensive.

There are many types of leaflets:

A4 : Typically a bit of photocopy paper. (210mm x 297mm)
A5 : 1/2 of A4 (148mm x 210mm)
A6 : Post card size (105mm x 148mm)
DL : Compliment slip size (210mm x 99mm)
BC : Business card size (85mm x 55mm)

There are also recycled leaflets; these are cheap however the overall finish is a gamble and often the recipient is disappointed with the outcome. Probably the most popular papers for printing leaflets is 80Gsm matt bond; this really is cheap and for most trades in the united kingdom is extremely cost effective.

Generally paper a leaflet could be printed on starts as low as 60Gsm and also the thickest being 500Gsm although the common thickest weight of paper in the UK is 350Gsm.

Folded Leaflets are available in the UK plus they are occasionally referred to brochures which actually is exactly what they are really.
