Election Leaflets

Election Leaflets

Our Election Leaflets service is an excellent tool for political campaigns. Our campaign leaflets are designed to be informative and eye-catching, highlighting your goals and aspirations to the local community. You can choose from a wide range of high-quality paper stocks to bring your campaign designs to life and create political leaflets that stand out from the competition.

Roll Fold and Z-Fold leaflets are our most popular with election promoters. You can choose to use these in either Portrait or Landscape, for more flexibility. Using your leaflets as a letter for a direct mailing campaign? A Z-fold leaflet can save you time folding flat letters and looks professional.

One of the greatest advantages of leaflets is their portability and ease of distribution. They can be handed out directly to potential voters, inserted into envelopes for mailing, or cardboard leaflet displays and cardboard counter displays for people to take as they please. Their compact size and lightweight nature make them convenient for individuals to carry, ensuring that your message can reach a broader audience.

Remember to include an imprint - this is a legal requirement for printed political campaign materials.  What is an Imprint?

How To Design Election Leaflets

• Artwork templates are available for download to assist with setting up your files. These include the panel widths required, too.

• Before submitting the folded leaflet artwork, we recommend you print a mock-up to check that the artwork is positioned correctly.

• When creating any leaflet, please supply your artwork as a 2-page, double-sided PDF. For example, on an A4 folded to A5, page 1 should display pages 4 & 1 of the leaflet and page 2 should display pages 2 & 3, as shown in this illustration. 

• When creating artwork with a landscape fold, please submit the front and back pages on the same page, with the front page orientation correct and the back page rotated 180°. The inside pages should be on page 2 and rotated 180° so that the orientation is correct on the final print. You can check the orientation is correct by printing a mock-up before submitting your artwork.

• Please note that for artwork that includes coloured backgrounds or coloured elements which overlap the fold lines, we would recommend ordering our laminated leaflets to protect the ink and paper from cracking and provide a smooth fold.
