A4 Stapled Brochures | Saddle-Stitched Printing

Supply print-ready artwork as a high-resolution PDF at 300dpi in CMYK (FOGRA39 where a profile is required). Embed all fonts or convert text to outlines/curves. Add 3mm bleed on every trimmed edge and extend backgrounds and images fully into the bleed. Keep important text, logos, QR codes and other critical content at least 3mm inside the finished trim. Crop marks are not required when the PDF is supplied at the correct trim size with bleed.

Supply the inner pages as one multi-page PDF in reading order, with the front cover first only where the product template instructs. For saddle-stitch binding, use the artwork template for binding margins and any cover, spine or drilling requirements rather than calculating these from another printer-specific specification. Keep critical content clear of the centre fold and staple area; page count must be divisible by four.
