A pocket folder turns a loose stack of paper into a presentation. Our 9" x 12" presentation folders are converted from heavy cardstock, scored and glued for clean folds and strong pockets, and printed in full colour so your brand frames every document you hand over. Choose 3" or 4" pockets on the left, right, or both sides, with standard business card slits or double slits to hold a card and a USB or brochure securely.
First Press produces folders for Montreal law firms, real estate brokerages, agencies, schools, and clinics, anywhere a first meeting comes with paperwork. A folder that looks and feels substantial tells your client the contents matter before they read a word.
Pocket folders are the workhorse of client onboarding kits, sales proposals and quotes, real estate closing packages, conference and seminar handouts, new employee welcome kits, investor and media press kits, school and university admissions packages, and clinic patient information packs. They also do quiet, steady duty at trade shows, where a branded folder keeps your materials from disappearing into a generic tote bag.
Start with the pocket layout. A single right pocket suits simple handouts, while two pockets let you separate, for example, a proposal from supporting documents. Choose 4" pockets when folders carry heavier or more numerous sheets, since the deeper pocket grips contents better. Business card slits are a small option with outsized impact: your card arrives attached to the documents instead of loose at the bottom of a bag. Use double slits if you want the card to sit flat without bowing.
For finishes, matte lamination gives a refined, fingerprint-resistant surface that suits professional services, while gloss makes photography and bold colour vivid. If staff will handwrite client names on the folder or its tab area, keep that zone uncoated. Build your file using our downloadable templates for each pocket configuration, with 0.125" bleed, CMYK colour, and 300 dpi images. Remember the folder prints flat, so check that artwork is oriented correctly across panels and pockets before submitting.
Folders involve die-cutting and gluing, so setup is a meaningful part of the cost. Unit prices fall significantly at higher quantities, making it worthwhile to print a year's supply at once. Orders over $200 ship free by ground across Canada.
Folders are die-cut, scored, and glued, and ship ready to use. Pockets are formed and business card slits are cut, so your team just fills them.
A 3" pocket comfortably holds a modest set of letter-size sheets, while a 4" pocket handles thicker packages. For very heavy kits, ask us about reinforced or expansion options through a custom quote.
Yes. Templates are available for standard slits on one or both pockets, as well as double slits. Pick the template that matches your configuration so the slit positions line up exactly.
Always supply a print-ready PDF with at least 1/8 inch (0.125 in) of bleed on every side and crop marks included, built in CMYK. Keep important text and logos at least 1/8 inch inside the trim line so nothing is cut off. If you are not sure how to export it that way, our file preparation guide walks through the exact settings for Canva, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, and Word. Prefer to design it yourself? Use the personalization option in the upload section to build your artwork right on the page before you order.
