Flyers print on a standard text-weight stock chosen to balance stiffness with affordability.

Common flyer sizes are 5.5×8.5, 8.5×11, 8.5×14, and 11×17 inches. 8.5×11 is the workhorse for retail and event flyers. 5.5×8.5 fits in a standard envelope without folding. 11×17 reads as poster-adjacent — best for trade-show handouts.

Set your document to the final trim size plus 0.125" bleed on every edge. Keep important text and logos at least 0.125" inside the trim line. Export as a press-ready PDF at 300 dpi in CMYK. Outline fonts to avoid substitution. Avoid pure black (0,0,0,100) for large dark areas — use a rich black like (60,40,40,100) so the press doesn't render it dull.

Single-sheet flyers in 8.5×11 and 11×17 can be scored and folded into half-fold, tri-fold, or z-fold layouts. Folding is a finishing add-on; choose at checkout and we score the sheet so the paper folds clean without cracking at the spine.

Production typically takes 2–4 business days once your file passes pre-flight. Most flyer jobs ship same-week. Quantity has little impact on production time because press setup dominates short to mid runs.

Same paper family, same surface. 100lb is noticeably stiffer in hand — resists curl in stacks, stays flat on a counter-top stand. 80lb ships lighter and costs slightly less per piece. If the flyer is mailed in an envelope, 80lb. If it's handed to a person at a trade show or sits in a display, 100lb.
