[Get a Quote](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/contact?service=brochures) ## About This Service First decide whether the brochure is one folded sheet or a multi-page booklet. Supply open and closed dimensions and a sketch showing the reading order. Fold direction, panel widths and cover placement affect the layout; do not divide every panel equally without checking the chosen fold. Confirm paper and finishing after the fold structure is agreed.

Specify one folded sheet or several bound pages; that construction determines artwork, dimensions and cost variables. How many folds does a trifold have?+ A typical trifold has two fold lines, three panels on each side and six panels in total. Agree final panel widths against the actual fold diagram. Does the cover count toward the page total?+ State this explicitly. Sixteen pages including cover and sixteen inner pages with an additional cover are different specifications. What is the price of 500 folded brochures?+ Provide open and closed dimensions, stock, printed sides, fold and artwork with the quantity. For a bound booklet, add page count, cover and binding; the estimate depends on these details. Which binding should I choose?+ Consider page count, materials and how the publication needs to open. Confirm the availability and file requirements for saddle stitching, perfect binding or spiral binding. Can I use a template without changing it?+ Check the template against agreed dimensions, panel widths, margins and reading order. A generic A4 template does not suit every trifold or booklet. ## Ready to Get Started?

Start with size, reading order and content length, then agree materials and a quote. ### Folded brochure versus bound booklet Georgian product names can overlap. Here, a folded brochure means one sheet divided into reading panels, while a bound booklet means a publication with pages assembled in sequence. A catalogue, company profile or information guide describes the content; each can require a different format and construction. - [Bi-fold brochure printing](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/bukleti/bukletebis-bechdva) - [Six-panel trifold printing](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/tripleti/tripletis-bechdva) - [Flyer printing](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/flaeri) ### Fold lines and panel counts A bi-fold sheet has two panels on each side, four reading panels in total. A trifold has two fold lines and three panels on each side, six in total. A colloquial “three-fold” label does not necessarily mean three crease lines. Specify open and closed dimensions, fold direction and the outer cover. A roll fold may need a narrower tuck-in panel; a Z-fold opens in a different sequence. Do not automatically divide the width into three equal parts. Accordion, gate fold and other constructions need review against the actual paper and artwork. The need for creasing is also agreed for the material and fold. - [Agree the trifold construction](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/tripleti/tripletis-damzadeba) - [Plan a folded brochure](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/bukleti/bukletis-damzadeba) ### Pages, cover and binding State the finished page count and whether it includes the cover. “16 pages including cover” and “16 inner pages plus a four-page cover” are different specifications. Blank pages still count. Agree reading order, contents, captions and assembly before finishing the layout. For conventional saddle stitching with folded sheets, page counts are generally multiples of four; special inserts need separate review. Perfect binding and spiral binding need different margins and cover preparation and open differently. Confirm the available method, acceptable thickness and minimum quantity with production. Do not guess the spine width: it depends on final paper and page count. - Specify inner-stock and cover-stock requirements separately. - 8, 12, 16, 24 or 32 pages are planning options; agree the final construction. - For thicker publications, check the safe text margin at the binding edge. ### Finished size versus open sheet An A5 finished booklet page is 148 × 210 mm; A4 is 210 × 297 mm. For a folded brochure, state both open-sheet and closed-product dimensions. An A4 sheet folded in half gives approximately A5 proportions, but trimming and exact artwork dimensions must be agreed. A trifold measuring 210 × 297 mm open is not the same job as one measuring that size closed. Assess square, narrow or custom formats against the content, transport and efficient paper use. Quotes based only on a format name may not be comparable if one assumes open dimensions and the other closed dimensions. ### Inner stock, cover and finishing Paper for a folded brochure must suit the fold; a bound booklet may use different stocks for its cover and inner pages. Alongside weight, assess readability, show-through, image appearance and ease of opening. Matte or gloss paper and a matte or gloss laminate are separate choices. List lamination, soft-touch, spot UV, foil or specialist paper as separate requirements and confirm the specific material and method. Environmental or recycled-stock descriptions need verified product information; appearance alone does not establish certification or recyclability. ### Folded brochure, trifold and booklet pricing To price 500 folded brochures or 1,000 trifolds, provide open and closed size, fold, stock, printed sides and artwork status as well as quantity. A bound booklet also needs page count, cover specification and binding. List separate languages and versions within the print run. Request a clear breakdown of printing, design, folding or binding, finishing and delivery. Check VAT and any proof cost. Compare budget alternatives without silently changing the content: fewer pages, different stock and another quantity are different decisions. Where no fixed price is published, the exact amount comes from a specific quote. - [Folded brochure price factors](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/bukleti/bukleti-fasi) - [Trifold specifications for a quote](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/tripleti/tripletis-bechdva) ### Design, layout and reading order The outer cover, first opening and inner panels of a folded brochure are seen at different times. Sketch the reading sequence before placing content. Six trifold panels should not become six overcrowded miniature pages. A bound booklet needs a page plan, heading hierarchy, a contents page when useful and image captions. Supply final copy, logo, licensed images, languages and brand guidelines. Design, page layout, editing, translation and print-file preparation are different services. State which are needed, the revision stages and which files should be handed over. - [Folded brochure design](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/bukleti/bukletis-dizaini-da-bechdva) - [Trifold design](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/tripleti/tripletis-dizaini-da-bechdva) ### Artwork, templates and print files Review inside and outside artwork separately. Agree the fold diagram, panel widths, bleed and safe areas with production. A Canva A4 template is not automatically a correct trifold template. Fold a paper dummy to check the cover, opening direction, phone number and QR code. For a multi-page PDF, confirm whether single pages or spreads are required. Do not impose the job yourself without instructions. Check sequence, blank pages, fonts, image size and a separate cover file if needed. Electronic approval checks layout and text; a physical colour or stock proof is a separate agreement. - [General PDF and colour checks](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/services/flyers#print-file) ### Match the format to the content A single promotion often fits a flyer; several services may fit a folded brochure; a detailed company profile or product catalogue may need a bound booklet. The uses below are planning examples, not a portfolio of completed commissions. - Restaurant and hotel: menu sections, visitor information and a working QR link; plan how changing prices will be updated. - Property and construction: project description, plans and legends; diagrams must remain readable at finished size. - Education, clinic and beauty: steps, programmes or instructions; have the responsible specialist approve the final content. - Tourism, culture and events: route, programme, map and times; short information can use a trifold, longer material needs pages. - B2B and exhibitions: company profile, capabilities and contact route; project evidence must come from verified work. - [Plan an advertising brochure](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/bukleti/sareklamo-bukleti) - [Information trifolds](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/tripleti/sainformacio-tripleti) ### Ordering specifications and receipt date For a quote, send construction, open and finished dimensions, quantity per language and version, pages or panels, stock and cover requirements, fold or binding, artwork and required receipt date. Mark undecided specifications as options to compare. Minimum quantity, rush production, specific binding, packing and delivery to another city are confirmed for the actual order. Separate artwork approval from production time. Whether collecting in Tbilisi or requesting shipment elsewhere, verify the handover method, cost and agreed date. - [Order folded brochures in Tbilisi](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/bukleti/bukleti-tbilisshi) - [Order trifolds in Tbilisi](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/tripleti/tripleti-tbilisshi) - [Request a brochure quote](https://www.craftarea.ge/en/contact) ## Brochure Printing — ordering guide Available from Craftarea in Tbilisi: Brochure Printing.
