In the US, the classic flyer is Half Letter (5.5 × 8.5 in), or a full Letter sheet. In Europe, flyers are mostly A5 (14.8 × 21 cm) or A6 (10.5 × 14.8 cm), and DL (9.9 × 21 cm) fits a long envelope and rack displays.
| Size | File at 250 DPI (with bleed) |
|---|---|
| A6 · 10.5 × 14.8 cm | 1,093 × 1,516 |
| A5 · 14.8 × 21 cm | 1,516 × 2,126 |
| DL · 9.9 × 21 cm | 1,033 × 2,126 |
| Half Letter · 5.5 × 8.5 in | 1,438 × 2,188 |
Bleed and safe area
Add 1/8 in of bleed on each side: a 5.5 × 8.5 in flyer becomes a 5.75 × 8.75 in file. The hand holding a flyer often covers a corner, as in the preview: keep key information at least 3/16 in from the edge.
The right resolution
A flyer is read in hand, about a foot away. At 35 cm, the eye can’t resolve detail beyond about 250 DPI; many printers ask for 300 DPI. A 5.5 × 8.5 in flyer at 300 DPI with bleed: 1,725 × 2,625 px.
Paper and finishes
Flyers handed out in bulk are often printed on light coated paper; heavier stock feels more premium, handy for a flyer people keep. Printing both sides doubles the space without changing the size.
Frequently asked questions
Is the flyer mockup free?
Yes. The preview, the resolution check and the HD mockup by email are free, with no sign-up.
What size in pixels is a flyer?
At 300 DPI, 1,725 × 2,625 px for a 5.5 × 8.5 in flyer with bleed, and 1,819 × 2,551 px for an A5.
The thumb covers part of my flyer. Is that normal?
Yes: the hand is in front of the paper, just like in real life. It’s also a good test: if key information disappears under the thumb, move it toward the center.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. It is read on your device and only leaves your browser if you ask for the HD mockup by email.
