Custom Presentation Folder Printing
MMPrint produces custom presentation folders and pocket folders for businesses, agencies, schools, nonprofits, associations and organizations nationwide. Presentation folders organize proposals, sales materials, reports, brochures and other documents while giving the entire package a consistent branded appearance.
Choose from one-pocket, two-pocket and specialty folder configurations with options for business card slits, custom pocket shapes, capacity pockets and premium finishing. Standard formats work well for most projects, while custom die-cut folders can be produced when your presentation requires a more distinctive size, shape or construction.
Need more than a standard pocket folder? MMPrint can review custom sizes, pocket configurations, die-cuts, coatings and specialty finishing when your project falls outside the standard online options.
Popular Presentation Folder Sizes
- 9" × 12" – The standard presentation folder size for holding 8.5" × 11" documents, proposals, brochures and sales materials.
- 6" × 9" – A compact presentation format for smaller inserts, event materials, promotional pieces and product information.
- 4" × 9" – A narrow folder format suited to brochures, coupons, rack-card-size materials and compact marketing pieces.
- Custom Sizes – Specialty dimensions can be reviewed for projects requiring a format outside standard presentation folder sizes.
Presentation Folder Styles & Pocket Options
- Two-Pocket Folders – The most common configuration for organizing documents on both sides of the folder.
- One-Pocket Folders – A streamlined option for smaller document sets and simple leave-behind materials.
- Three-Pocket Folders – Adds capacity for multi-section proposals, media kits and more complex presentation packages.
- Custom Pocket Shapes – Create angled, curved, wave, arch or other die-cut pocket designs.
- Business Card Slits – Hold a business card securely inside the folder as part of the presentation.
- CD, DVD or USB Slits – Specialty slits can be incorporated for qualifying projects that include digital media.
- Expandable or Capacity Pockets – Designed for thicker document sets, catalogs, samples or other presentation materials.
- Spine Prongs – Can be used for qualifying projects that need punched pages or bound inserts secured inside the folder.
Custom Die-Cut Presentation Folders
Custom die-cutting allows the folder itself to become part of the design. Pocket edges, outside panels and other folder elements can be shaped to reinforce a logo, theme or visual concept. MMPrint has produced presentation folders with rounded corners, wave pockets, arches, circles, ridges and other custom contours.
Custom die-cut folders are particularly useful for sales presentations, product launches, media kits and high-value proposals where the presentation package needs to stand apart from a standard folder.
Paper Stocks & Finishing Options
- Coated Cover Stocks – Provide a smooth printed surface for full-color photography, illustrations and branded graphics.
- C1S Stocks – Coated on the outside with an uncoated interior surface, making them useful for folders that need a glossy exterior with a flatter interior.
- C2S Stocks – Coated on both sides for projects with printed artwork on both the inside and outside of the folder.
- Uncoated & Textured Stocks – Available for presentations requiring a more natural or distinctive paper feel.
- UV Coating – Adds a glossy protective surface and enhances printed color.
- Aqueous Coating – Provides surface protection with a smoother gloss or matte appearance.
- Spot UV – Adds gloss selectively to logos, photographs or other design elements.
- Foil Stamping – Adds metallic or specialty foil accents to logos, lettering and selected artwork.
- Embossing – Creates raised dimensional elements for logos, text and graphic details.
- Lamination – Adds additional surface protection and a more substantial finished feel.
- Pantone Color Matching – PMS color matching can be used for qualifying projects requiring specific brand colors.

Design Tips for Presentation Folders
- Design using the correct dieline – Pocket folders contain folds, glue areas, pockets and other structural elements that must be considered before artwork is finalized.
- Keep important content away from folds – Logos, text and other critical design elements should remain inside the appropriate safe areas.
- Plan the pockets as part of the design – Pocket artwork can align with the inside panels to create a more integrated presentation.
- Account for business card slits – Leave sufficient room around card slits so important artwork is not interrupted.
- Choose finishing strategically – Foil, embossing or Spot UV can be most effective when used selectively rather than across the entire design.
- Consider the contents before choosing pocket capacity – Thicker reports, catalogs or sample sets may require expandable pockets instead of standard flat pockets.
- Use high-resolution artwork – Logos, photography and other graphics should be prepared at suitable resolution for commercial printing.
