The Facts about Tabloid Printing

Tabloid printing actually refers to the size of the paper used for printing certain publications. The pages are smaller than most of the standard size magazine pages. You can tell whether you have a tabloid size page by folding a broadsheet in half. Tabloid printing is for publishers looking to create a smaller magazine that is easy and convenient for customers to read no matter where they are. In short, tabloid size publications simply handle better, overall.

Many newsletters and gossip magazines are printed on tabloid-style stock. So, for example, if mail newsletters to clients on a regular basis, tabloid printing is ideal. You can also print in-house newsletters using tabloid printing, so that the company information you’re sending out to employees can be designed to look neat and concise. Another good example is your typical gossip magazine. Often done through tabloid printing, gossip magazines are easy to read and can easily be folded up into a purse or briefcase for additional reading at a different time.

Newspapers are also created using tabloid printing quite often, so if you are thinking of printing a local paper, tabloid printing is a cost-effective way to print your publication. A feature-style community newspaper is another option for tabloid printing and can be filled with information on local job opportunities, coupons and recipes and more. Tabloid printing is perfect as you can easily distribute a community publication through the mail and because of its tabloid size, it can easily fit into a standard-size mailbox.
