A5 Flyer Printing Prices

A5 is one of the most popular sizes for promotional flyers. It gives you plenty of space for your message while remaining compact enough for letterbox distribution, counter displays, handouts and direct marketing.

Flyer Printing for Glasgow Businesses

Flyers remain one of the simplest ways to get a business, service or event in front of local customers. They can be handed directly to customers, included with orders, placed on counters, distributed through doors or used at exhibitions and events.

We print flyers for customers throughout Glasgow, including independent shops, restaurants, takeaways, driving schools, tradespeople, charities, community organisations, property businesses, landscapers, taxi companies and many other local businesses.

If you already have finished artwork, simply send us your print-ready file. If you are unsure whether your artwork is suitable for printing, we recommend reading our guide on how to prepare a file for print.

Why Choose A5 Flyers?

A5 measures 148mm × 210mm, which is half the size of an A4 sheet. It is large enough to carry a headline, photographs, contact details, prices, offers and a call to action without becoming awkward to distribute.

For many local advertising campaigns, A5 offers a good balance between print space and practicality.

A well-designed A5 flyer can include your:

• Business name and logo
• Main services
• Telephone number
• Website address
• Email address
• Special offers
• Prices
• Opening hours
• QR code
• Social media details

Flyers for Door-to-Door Distribution

If you’re planning a local leaflet drop, A5 flyers are particularly practical. They are easy to handle, straightforward to distribute and provide enough room to communicate your main message without trying to squeeze everything onto a small piece of paper.

For a local Glasgow business, leaflet distribution can also be targeted towards the areas where you actually want new customers.

This can be useful for businesses serving areas such as Glasgow City Centre, Govan, Ibrox, Cardonald, Hillington, Shawlands, Pollokshields, Pollok, Giffnock, Rutherglen, Cambuslang, Bearsden, Clydebank, Bishopbriggs and surrounding areas.

Flyers for Events and Promotions

Printed flyers are also ideal for promoting events. They give you something physical that can be handed to potential customers or displayed in suitable locations.

We can print flyers for:

• Business launches
• Club nights
• Music events
• Community events
• School events
• Open days
• Exhibitions
• Conferences
• Special offers
• Seasonal promotions

Choosing the Right Paper for Your Flyers

135gsm Gloss Flyers

Gloss paper is an excellent general-purpose choice for promotional printing. Colours and photographs reproduce well on the smooth coated surface, making it particularly suitable for advertising material where visual impact is important.

170gsm Recycled Flyers

Our recycled option provides a heavier feel and is suitable for businesses and organisations that prefer recycled paper for their printed marketing material.

120gsm Uncoated Flyers

Uncoated paper has a more traditional paper feel. Because it does not have the same smooth coating as gloss stock, it can also be more suitable where somebody may need to write additional information onto the flyer.

Preparing Your Flyer Artwork for Printing

Good print starts with good artwork. For the sharpest possible result, your design should be supplied at the correct dimensions and at a suitable resolution.

When preparing an A5 flyer, your finished document size should be 148mm × 210mm. Artwork that prints all the way to the edge should normally include bleed around the finished size.

Important text, telephone numbers and logos should also be kept safely away from the trim edge.

For more information, see our print artwork preparation guide.

High-Resolution Flyer Printing

Small text, logos, photographs and graphics all benefit from correctly prepared, high-resolution artwork. Images copied from websites or social media can sometimes look acceptable on a phone or computer screen but become blurred or pixelated when printed.

If possible, supply the original PDF artwork rather than a screenshot or compressed image.

If you are unsure about your file, send it to us before ordering and we can advise you if there are any obvious problems that may affect the finished print.

Flyer Design Tips

A successful flyer doesn’t need to contain huge amounts of information. In many cases, a simple design with one strong message works better than trying to fit every detail about your business onto one page.

Use a Clear Headline

The main message should be immediately obvious. If you’re advertising a special offer, service or event, make that one of the first things people see.

Make Contact Details Easy to Find

Don’t make potential customers search for your telephone number or website. Contact information should be clear and easy to read.

Include a Call to Action

Tell the reader what you would like them to do next. This might be to call, visit your website, scan a QR code, book an appointment or visit your premises.

Don’t Overcrowd the Design

Leaving some clear space around text and images can make a flyer much easier to read. Trying to use every available millimetre usually makes important information harder to notice.

Flyer Printing for Tradespeople

Flyers can work particularly well for trades and local service businesses because they can be distributed directly within the areas you cover.

Builders, roofers, landscapers, cleaners, window cleaners, plumbers, electricians, waste collection businesses and other local services can use flyers to introduce their business to potential customers in specific streets and neighbourhoods.

A straightforward design containing your services, a strong photograph, telephone number, website and clear call to action is often all that is needed.

Flyer Printing for Restaurants and Takeaways

Printed flyers and menus continue to be useful for restaurants, cafés, bakeries and takeaways. They can advertise opening hours, menu highlights, delivery services, special offers and online ordering information.

A QR code can also be included to send customers directly to an online menu, ordering page or website.

Add a QR Code to Your Flyers

QR codes provide an easy way of connecting printed advertising with your online content. Customers can scan the code using their phone and go directly to a chosen page.

A QR code can link to your:

• Website
• Online shop
• Booking page
• Contact page
• Online menu
• Social media profile
• Special offer page

Make sure there is enough clear space around the QR code and that it is large enough to scan easily when printed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Flyer Printing

What size is an A5 flyer?

A5 measures 148mm wide × 210mm high in portrait orientation. It can also be designed in landscape orientation at 210mm × 148mm.

How many flyers can I order?

Our advertised packages on this page are based on quantities of 1,000 A5 flyers. Contact us if you have a different printing requirement.

What paper should I choose?

That depends on how the flyers will be used. 135gsm gloss is a popular choice for colourful promotional material. Recycled stock provides a different look and feel, while uncoated paper is useful when a more natural paper surface is preferred.

Can you check my artwork?

Yes. If you’re uncertain whether your artwork is ready for printing, send us the file so it can be checked before production.

Can I put a QR code on my flyer?

Yes. QR codes can be incorporated into flyer artwork and can direct customers to your website, booking page, online menu, social media or another web page.

Should flyer artwork have bleed?

If colours, photographs or graphics run right to the finished edge, the artwork should normally contain bleed. This allows the printed sheets to be trimmed accurately without leaving unwanted white edges.

What file format is best for flyer printing?

A correctly prepared print-quality PDF is generally the preferred format. If you’re unsure about your file, send it to us and we can check it.

Do you print flyers for Glasgow businesses?

Yes. We provide flyer printing for businesses, organisations and individuals in Glasgow as well as customers elsewhere in the UK.
