Advert sizes
Width × depth.
| Eighth page | 63 × 43mm |
| Quarter page | 63 × 92mm |
| Half page, vertical | 63 × 190mm |
| Half page, horizontal | 132 × 92mm |
| Full page, to float | 138 × 210mm |
| Full page, with bleed | 154 × 216mm |
| Double-page spread, with bleed | 302 × 216mm |
Full pages: never supply at the 148 × 210mm trim size. Add 3mm bleed on every edge when artwork runs off the page.
What is bleed?
Extra artwork, 3mm beyond each edge of the page, so there are no thin white lines after the magazine is trimmed. Only needed if your advert runs right to the edge.
What does “to float” mean?
Your advert sits on the page with white space around it, so it doesn’t reach the edge and doesn’t need bleed.
Made your advert in Canva?
Download it as a “PDF Print”. For full pages and spreads, tick “crop marks and bleed” so the 3mm bleed is included.
