Print-Ready Tri-Fold Brochure Design

I run a commercial print shop and I’m looking for a reliable designer who can hand off truly press-ready files whenever I need them. Most of the work you’ll touch will be tri-fold brochures, although the occasional full magazine or alternative format might pop up.

Because each project comes from a different end-client, brand situations vary. Sometimes you’ll be handed a polished brand guide with precise colour values and type hierarchies; other times you’ll start from a loose idea and shape a look that complements the client’s sector. Either way, consistency across panels, clean typography and accurate colour are non-negotiable.

You should be completely comfortable setting up files in Adobe InDesign (and Illustrator or Photoshop when needed), working in CMYK, adding proper bleeds and crop marks, embedding or outlining fonts, and packaging everything so I can drop the PDF straight into the press queue with zero tweaks.

Deliverables for each job
• Print-ready PDF (CMYK, 3 mm bleed, crops)
• Collected working files packaged for archival (INDD/AI, links, fonts)

Smooth communication and quick turnarounds will keep us both happy, and a keen eye for pre-press detail will keep my presses running without costly reprints. If that sounds like your wheelhouse, let’s talk about the first brochure.
