A trifold brochure is an information leaflet that is divided into three sections and folded into three equal parts. It is a very useful format for presenting information in an organized and attractive way, ideal for school, events, promotions or presentations.
In this article, you will learn how to create a brochure using the Microsoft Word word processor. We will also explain how to print it easily, ensuring a professional and effective finish according to your needs.
Steps to create a brochure in Word
To create your brochure in Word, follow these simple steps:
-Start the Word program to have a blank page.
-Go to the top menu and select the “Format” option.
-Click on “Orientation” and choose “Landscape”.
-Next, go to “Columns” and select “Three.” This will apply the basic settings for your brochure.
-Start adding the content of your brochure. It is important to summarize the information well so that it is properly distributed in the columns. Make sure that the text does not exceed the limits of each column, but try to cover both sides.
-You can include photos, graphics and other visual elements to make your brochure attractive. Remember that visual elements help to better understand the topics.
Keep in mind that Word offers many features to customize your brochure according to your tastes and needs, whether it is for a school project or something more professional that requires more elaboration and time.
How to print a brochure
If you already have the brochure ready, then you can proceed to print it.
-Make sure you set your printer to print double-sided.
-In Word, click “File” at the top left and select “Print.” Your printer’s options menu will open.
-Look for the “Print on one side” option and select “Manually print on both sides.”
-One side will be printed first, then you will have to put the sheet back in the printer to print the other side.
With these steps, your brochure should now be well printed on both sides and ready for you to hand out.
