This is Flyer Design Guide, a single-subject site covering how to design a flyer that works on paper. Nothing else gets added to the remit just because it would attract traffic.
Scope
In scope: designing a flyer for print, from layout and type to images, bleed and print-ready files, and the design tools that do the work and how they differ in practice.
Out of scope: adjacent subjects that would broaden the site without making it more useful, and news coverage, which goes stale faster than it can be maintained.
What gets written here
Individual write-ups, direct comparisons, and explainers for the vocabulary that gets in the way of a straight answer.
Each page is built around one question, and carries the date it was last updated so a reader can see how current it is.
How pages are put together
Where one option is better than another for a given job, that is said in words, with the reason attached. It is never expressed as a number.
- No scores out of ten, no star ratings, no tier boards and no leaderboards.
- No description of testing that did not take place.
- Pricing and feature claims are checked against the vendor’s own pages, and dated where the page says so.
- Where something is genuinely unclear, the page says it is unclear rather than guessing.

What this site is not
Flyer Design Guide is published information, not advice for your particular situation. Nothing here is a recommendation tailored to you, and no page can know the constraints you are actually working under.
Corrections
If something here is wrong, out of date, or reads as more confident than the evidence supports, write to [email protected] and say so. A link to the page that contradicts it is the fastest way to get it fixed.
