Defining a Pamphlet From a PrinterÕs Point of View

When you ask a printer to create a print pamphlet for your company, it is generally assumed that this is going to be a booklet with a paper cover that is unbound, or without a hard cover. It contains fewer than 50 pages and usually contains information about a specific subject.

History of Print Pamphlets

The first reference to a pamphlet was centuries earlier, during the Protestant Reformation. At this time, printed materials were copied and used as a way to disseminate information which was detrimental to the Catholic Church. This was also one of the first forms of propaganda. Back in the early days, copies of pamphlets were made be rewriting each by hand. One can only imagine the amount of time it took to recreate a single booklet. Printing pamphlets first occurred in England, Germany, and France in the early 1500s. The most common use at that time was for political or religious propaganda, although every now and then a philosophical treatise or work of literature was also created in this manner. Prior to the Revolutionary War, the United States began using pamphlets to incite political fervor. Most of these were written by Thomas Paine, known as the foremost writer of political pamphlets. Such a practice became known as 'pamphleteering' and this still exists, in some form today. In fact, it can be considered that internet blogs are one form of modern pamphleteering.

Printing Pamphlets For Modern Use

Pamphlets are still used today. Most often, printed materials such as newsletters, flyers, and pamphlets are created in color as a way to allow a company to disseminate wide variety of information. Of course, many modern pamphlets are still being produced to relay political messages and propaganda throughout the world.

Printing Standards for Pamphlets

The most economical way to print pamphlets is on a standard-sized 8.5 x 11 inch paper stock. These pages will be folded down the middle, providing four sides which can be printed (with double-sided printing). Margins of zero ensure that the printing extends all the way to each edge. In printerÕs terms, a pamphlet job is considered a short-run print. The best companies offer same day service and can also mail the pamphlets after printing. This can be a very cost-effective way for businesses to get their information out to the greatest number of customers in a short amount of time.
