Design a print-ready brochure, final trim size 14" × 8.5", landscape orientation, aspect ratio 28:17. Output at 300 DPI in CMYK color mode. Final artwork with bleed should be 14.25" × 8.75" (4,275 × 2,625 pixels). Add 0.125" of bleed on all four sides and keep all text and logos at least 0.25" inside the trim edge. BUSINESS: [Business name] — [what you do] — [Atlanta, GA / neighborhood] PURPOSE: [services menu / event program / product catalog] OUTSIDE SPREAD: front cover = [headline + hero image]; back cover = [contact info, map, hours]; fold-in panel = [about us / testimonial] INSIDE SPREAD: [panel 1 topic], [panel 2 topic], [panel 3 topic] — short headings with 2–3 sentences each STYLE: [bold & modern / clean & elegant / urban & edgy / playful]. Brand colors: [color 1], [color 2], [accent]. Fonts: [bold sans-serif headline, clean body text]. IMAGERY: [describe the photo or illustration you want, or say "no photos, typographic design only"] RULES: Use large, legible fonts and strong contrast; no tiny text; no lorem ipsum or placeholder text; no watermarks; spell every word exactly as written above; flat print-safe colors (no neon or glowing RGB effects); clean edges; solid background that extends fully into the bleed area; lay out the panels left-to-right at their exact widths (two 7" × 8.5" panels per side (one fold down the middle)) and do not place text across the fold lines.
Design tips for this size
- This brochure prints on one 8.5″ tall sheet and folds to two 7″ × 8.5″ panels per side (one fold down the middle).
- Generate two images: the OUTSIDE spread (cover, back cover and the fold-in panel) and the INSIDE spread.
- Never let a headline or logo cross a fold line — keep each panel self-contained.
Tool settings
- ChatGPT / DALL·E: Paste the prompt as-is. Image output is limited to about 1024–1536 px, so pick the landscape option and then upscale (see step 3).
- Midjourney: Add
--ar 28:17to the end of the prompt and use--q 2. Upscale the result you like. - Canva (Magic Design / Magic Media): Create a custom-size design at 14.25″ × 8.75″, paste the prompt into Magic Media, then download as PDF Print with CMYK and crop marks & bleed checked.
- Adobe Firefly / Express: Choose the landscape aspect ratio closest to 28:17, generate, then open in Express at 14.25″ × 8.75″ @ 300 ppi and export as print PDF.
From AI image to print-ready file
- Generate 3–4 versions and pick the one with the cleanest text. AI still misspells words — read every line.
- Fix the text if needed by dropping the image into Canva or Photoshop and retyping headlines over it.
- Upscale to at least 4,275 × 2,625 px using Canva’s upscaler, Topaz Gigapixel, Upscayl (free) or Photoshop’s Super Resolution.
- Set the document to 14.25″ × 8.75″ at 300 DPI, convert to CMYK, and export a flattened PDF.
- Upload & order on the brochure page, or send it for a quote. Not sure about your file? Send it anyway — we look at every file before it prints.
