Template Guide
Understanding the Template Lines
Every business card template has three guides — here's exactly what each one means.
Red Line — Cut Line
This is the final size of your product. The printer cuts exactly on this line. Your background and images should extend beyond this line into the bleed area.
Extend backgrounds past this line
Blue Line — Safety Line
Keep all important content — text, logos, phone numbers — inside this line. Anything outside may get trimmed during cutting.
Keep all text & logos inside
Outer Edge — Bleed Area
Extend your background colors and full-bleed images to the outer edge. This prevents white gaps from appearing on the edges of your printed product.
Extend background to outer edge

About Our Brochures
Our free brochure templates are built to the exact flat dimensions used in production — including bleed area and fold line guides. Each download includes both the outside and inside panel templates, so you have everything you need to design a complete, print-ready brochure.
We offer two brochure styles: the Tri-fold (6 panels, the most common brochure format) and the Bi-fold (4 larger panels, ideal for image-heavy or menu-style layouts). Both are available in 80lb or 100lb Gloss Book stock, both printed on 8.5×11" flat sheets.
