Cards
Card size (landscape) → design size with bleed:
A5 210 × 148 mm → 214 × 152 mm
210 × 100 mm → 214 × 104 mm
mini 140 × 98 mm → 144 × 102 mm
Pages: 14. Pages 1 and 2 are the front and back of the first card, 3 and 4 of the second, and so on.
The spiral runs along the top, longer edge. Keep important elements (texts, logos) at least 11 mm from that edge, as the spiral holes go there.
A ready-made 2027 calendar grid in the format of the selected card is available under the calculator (“Download calendar grid” button).
Stand
Flat stand → design size with bleed:
A5: 210 × 406 mm → 214 × 410 mm
210 × 100: 210 × 310 mm → 214 × 314 mm
mini 140 × 98: 140 × 306 mm → 144 × 310 mm
Printing: one side (outside of the stand)
The stand has two walls and a 68 mm base creased in the middle. Each wall is 21 mm taller than the card (mini: 119 mm, creases at 119, 153 and 187 mm from the top edge). The top part of each wall, equal to the card height, is covered by the cards. A strip of about 21 mm above the base stays visible, front and back. Rotate the artwork of the back wall by 180°, as shown in the template.
Templates
Download the PDF templates for the cards and the stand from the calculator (“Download template” buttons). On the template the bleed is marked blue, the trim line red, the safe margin green and the crease (fold line) pink dashed. Remove the template elements before sending the file, otherwise they will be printed.
