Tips for Creating Effective 5.5 x 8.5 Catalogs


The 5.5 x 8.5 catalog is the smallest standard catalog size and offers an interactive, compact canvas for you to display your catalog content on multiple pages.

To design an effective 5.5 x 8.5 catalog, you need to pay careful attention to detail so that your catalog content is easy to read, engaging, and appeals to your specific audience.

To help with the layout of your catalog design, it’s beneficial to take advantage of a 5.5 x 8.5 catalog design template—also referred to as a “5.5x8.5 booklet template” and a “5.5x8.5 magazine template”— which we have available in several different formats above for you to download for free.

Our 5.5x8.5 catalog templates offer guidelines for you to follow to ensure your catalog has the proper trim area, margin space, and bleed so that you can set up your catalog design to print at the highest quality.

In addition to taking advantage of a 5.5 x 8.5 catalog template, make sure your catalog also includes an eye-catching cover, a table of contents, a color palette that aligns with your brand, high-quality images that are at least 300dpi, a good amount of negative space, and consistent design elements.
