Double sided flyer

You can do this in either Illustrator or InDesign.

InDesign is the correct tool to use - as it's more of a page layout - but Illustrator would work too.

I would suggest doing this in InDesign.

File>New Document

Select <Print> from the top

Select your width and height

Pages (how many you need)

Add a title if you wish

All the above can be altered at any point anyway.

In same panel - select how much bleed you wish to add - 5mm is  plenty and 3mm is usual (for me anyway)

Clicking Bleed and Slug brings you the section to add this information (although selecting a print document should automatically add at least 5mm bleed by default imo).

Add the amount of Bleed (your print provider can advise you of that).

Now click the Create button.

A new document is created. Your panels may be different than mine:

Click the pages panel to reveal the pages in the document.

Oops - slight error it's setup as facing pages - no  problem

File>Document Setup

Untick Facing Pages

You can also alter your page size, number of pages, bleed etc. from here

Once you are here and have a document started the rest is up to you!
