Q:

What is the orientation of the pockets on custom folders?

A:

Generally, you can have vertical or horizontal pockets. Some options may be limited in the case of three panel folders due to the size limitations of the printed sheet. Your account representative can help you design the appropriate folder to fit your requirements.


Q:

How many pockets can I have on my folders?

A:

When designing a two panel folder, you can have zero, one, or two pockets. On three panel folders, you can have up to three pockets. We do recommend including a spine if you plan to insert a large number of sheets in the pockets.


Q:

What does the term 'spine' mean?

A:

A spine is an added space in the center crease of the folders to accommodate a large number of sheets that need to be placed in the presentation folder. A spine can also be added to the pockets in order to provide additional space.


Q:

What does the term ‘Gate-Fold’ mean?

A:

Gate fold is a folding technique that involves two side panels that are half the width of the center panel. These two side panels fold inwards and open like two doors of a gate to reveal the content printed on the center panel or enclosed inside.


Q:

Can a pocket be added to gate-fold folders?

A:

Yes, you can add a pocket of your preferred shape and size to your gate fold folders. You can also add business card slits. The pocket is typically placed on the center panel and is used to hold other marketing materials such as inserts, sales sheets, and brochures.

Media and Press kit are folders that are specially designed to carry key business information, a selection of important press releases, and other print content in a convenient and organized manner. These folders are typically used to hand out important information during events such as a product launch or a press conference. We can also produce information inserts, staggered sales sheets, brochures, letterheads, and other promotional items that are typically included in press kits. We can also assemble the press kits before shipping. These kits will be assembled and ready to go once delivered.


Q:

What is a debossed folder vs embossed folder?

A:

Debossing is a process that creates a depression in the target surface while the embossing process creates a raised surface. You can choose one or both of these options to enhance the look of your presentation folders.


Q:

What is the difference between Spot UV and Flood UV in folders?

A:

If a targeted area of the design is coated with UV coating, that particular area stands out from the rest of the design, this process is referred to as Spot UV. If we apply UV coating on the whole surface of the folders from edge to edge, this process is known as flood UV. Folders with flood UV will have an extra shiny look compared to the standard gloss look.


Q:

What is 4/0 vs. 4/4 when designing a custom folder?

A:

4/0 refers to printing full color on one side of the printed sheet. This side represents the front cover, back cover, and pockets of a custom folders once finished. On the other hand, 4/4 refers to printing full color on both sides of the printed sheet. In this case you can customize the front cover, back cover, pockets, and the area above the pockets on the inside of the folder.
