2

Add Your Number and Links

3

Share It Locally

Publish with one click, then post the link in a community group, send it to your customer list, embed it on your site, or print a QR code for the shop window, the van, or the paper leaflet.

How to Create a Digital Leaflet Flipbook

Making a leaflet with Flipbooks AI is quick and needs no design skill. Start with the artwork you already have, whether that is the PDF your printer used or something you put together yourself. Upload it and the tool builds an interactive preview straight away. Pick a fold and page turn style, add your logo and colours, put a tap to call number on the front panel, link the address to a map, and choose whether the leaflet is open to everyone or password protected. Check it on your own phone, publish with one click, and start sharing the link.

What Is a Leaflet, and How Is It Different?

A leaflet is the short printed handout British organisations use to explain one thing: a menu, a service, a recycling change, a treatment, an open day. It is usually folded, often DL or A5, and it either goes through letterboxes on a leaflet drop, sits in a rack at a surgery or a library, or is handed out on the high street. A flyer is normally a single unfolded sheet promoting one event, so it says less and says it louder. If that is what you are making, our flyer tool is the closer fit. Flipbooks AI turns your leaflet artwork into a digital version that keeps the folds and the running order while adding the things paper cannot manage.

Fits Every Sort of Leaflet

The tool handles the full range of British leaflets. Takeaway and pub menus. Tradesperson leaflets for plumbers, electricians, gardeners, and window cleaners. Estate agent property leaflets. Council notices about bin days, roadworks, and consultations. NHS and dental practice information sheets. Charity appeals and volunteer recruitment. Church and village hall newsletters. Gym and salon offer leaflets. School open evening handouts. Whatever the subject, the artwork becomes a digital leaflet that opens in a browser and keeps the folds you designed.

Match the Leaflet to Your Branding

Match the Leaflet to Your Branding

A leaflet is often the first thing somebody sees of a business, so it should look like the shop it came from. Flipbooks AI lets you set the frame around the artwork: add your logo, choose the background and the accent colour, and pick a navigation style that suits the tone. Several languages are supported, which matters for a council or a surgery serving a mixed community. When the digital version matches the paper one and the sign above the door, people recognise you the second time they see the link.

Why a Flipbook Suits a Leaflet

A paper leaflet lands on a doormat and has about three seconds to earn a place on the fridge. The rest go straight in the recycling, and you never find out which. A digital leaflet gives you a second run at the same people: put the link in a local Facebook group, a WhatsApp neighbourhood chat, an email to your list, or a QR code on the window. It opens instantly on a phone, folds out the same way the paper one does, and every panel can be tapped. You also learn how many people actually opened it, which no leaflet drop has ever told anybody.

Create Your Digital Leaflet

Help Local People Find You Online

A digital leaflet can be set up so search engines index it, which quietly brings in the people who never got the paper copy. Embedding it on your website adds real content to the page and keeps visitors reading for longer. Give it a clear title with the words neighbours actually type, such as your trade, your town, and the service you offer. A leaflet you made for one street becomes something a person two miles away finds at eleven at night when their boiler has packed in.

Interactive Bits a Paper Leaflet Cannot Do

Interactive Bits a Paper Leaflet Cannot Do

This is where a digital leaflet earns its place next to the printed one. Add a tap to call button so nobody has to copy a number down. Link the address to a map that opens their own navigation app. Put a booking form or a quote request behind the offer panel. Embed a short video of the work you did on a house down the road. Add a download for the full price list. Include a linked contents panel on a longer leaflet so a reader jumps to the bit about opening hours instead of folding and unfolding the whole thing.

Create Your Digital Leaflet

Features Built for Small Businesses and Councils

Flipbooks AI carries the things a leaflet needs to do its job. Put your phone number behind a tap to call button, so a customer standing at a bus stop rings you without copying digits. Link the address panel to a map, the offer panel to a booking page, and the back panel to your opening hours. Embed a short video showing the workshop, the ward, or the finished extension. Add a downloadable order form or a consent form for a service. Everything is free, with no watermark across your artwork and no limit on how many panels or pages the leaflet runs to.

Send One Leaflet to a Whole Round

A leaflet drop covers streets one at a time. A link covers all of them at once. Flipbooks AI lets you send the same leaflet to your customer list, a community group, a WhatsApp chat, and a residents association in a single afternoon. Make a separate version for each area if the offer or the delivery charge differs, and give each its own link so you can tell the rounds apart. Councils use the same approach to reach one ward without printing for the whole borough.

Put the Leaflet Together as a Team

Put the Leaflet Together as a Team

Even a small leaflet usually needs somebody else to look at it: a business partner, a committee, a manager, or the person who knows the correct opening hours. Flipbooks AI makes that easy. Share a preview link and let them read the leaflet as a customer will, on a phone, before anything is published or printed. Keep separate versions for different areas or seasons and publish the right one when the campaign starts. It saves the usual round of emailed PDFs with three different sets of comments on them.

The tool suits whatever you are putting through doors. A takeaway menu for the streets around the shop. A parish council update about bin collections and roadworks. A charity appeal before a collection week. A gardening or plastering round covering three postcodes. A health leaflet for a surgery waiting room. A school prospectus handed out at an open evening. Upload the artwork you already sent to the printer and it becomes a digital leaflet in minutes, ready to sit alongside the paper drop rather than replace it.

Cheaper Than a Print Run and a Leaflet Drop

Printing five thousand leaflets and paying somebody to walk them round is a real cost, and any mistake means doing it twice. A digital leaflet costs nothing to publish and nothing to correct. Change a price, add a new service, or fix the phone number after it has gone out, and everyone who opens the link sees the corrected version. Run a different leaflet every month if you want to. Most businesses keep the paper drop for the streets nearby and use the link for everywhere else.

Readable for Everyone on Your Round

Readable for Everyone on Your Round

A leaflet has to work for older residents, people with poor eyesight, and anyone using a phone with the text size turned up. Flipbooks AI covers the basics for you. Screen reader support means a resident who cannot see the artwork still gets the information. Keyboard navigation works without a mouse. Readable type and high contrast panels help a lot more people than the ones who would ever mention it. For a council or a health service with a duty to reach everybody, that matters as much as the design does.

Create Your Digital Leaflet

Works Perfectly on Every Phone

Almost nobody reads a leaflet at a desk. They read it in a queue, on the bus, or standing in the kitchen deciding what to order. Flipbooks AI makes sure the leaflet reads properly on a phone held in one hand. The layout adapts to the screen while the fold turns stay smooth. Readers pinch to zoom on the small print, swipe to the next panel, tap the number to ring you, and open the map without leaving the page. It all runs in the browser, so nothing has to be downloaded before a stranger will look at it.

Loads Fast on a Phone in the Street

Somebody scanning a QR code in a shop doorway has one bar of signal and very little patience. Flipbooks AI tunes every leaflet to open quickly on a weak mobile connection. Smart compression keeps your photographs and your logo sharp while shrinking the file. The first panel appears while the rest loads behind it. That speed is the difference between a passer by reading your offer and a passer by putting their phone back in their pocket and carrying on walking.

Works With the Tools You Already Have

Works With the Tools You Already Have

You do not need new software to publish this way. Export the leaflet from Canva, Adobe InDesign, Affinity Publisher, Microsoft Word, or Google Docs and upload the PDF. Add clickable links to your booking system, your online shop, a Google Form, a Facebook page, or a fundraising page. Drop the embed code into your website, a community site, or a council page so the leaflet sits where people already look. The artwork you sent to the printer is the same artwork you upload here.

Flipbooks AI is completely free, and the useful parts are not held back behind an upgrade. Plenty of tools stamp their own logo across your leaflet, which makes a small business look like it borrowed the artwork. Here you get unlimited leaflets, clean panels carrying only your own branding, and every option at no cost. A sole trader, a village hall committee, or a small charity can publish a new leaflet whenever something changes, keep several running at once, and share them as widely as they like without a subscription.

Keep an Archive of Past Leaflets

Keep every leaflet you have ever published, labelled and ready to open again. Last summer offer, the Christmas menu, the roadworks notice from the spring: all of them stay available. Bringing back a seasonal leaflet takes minutes instead of starting from a blank page, and you can look back at which one brought in the most calls before deciding what to run again. Nothing sits in a box in the stockroom slowly going out of date, and nothing is lost when a laptop is replaced.

What Leaflet Makers Say About the Tool

I run a takeaway and we used to print menus twice a year, which meant living with the wrong prices for months. Now the menu is a link with the folds intact, the phone number is a tap, and I change a dish the same evening. Half our orders come from people who found the link in the village group.

Product catalogs

Our parish council sends out a notice about bin changes and roadworks. We still post paper through doors for residents who are not online, but the digital version reaches the rest and, for the first time, we can show the committee how many people actually opened it.

Client lookbooks

I am a plasterer and my leaflet used to be a photocopy. Now it opens on a phone with photos of jobs on the next street and a call button on the front panel. People ring me from the leaflet while they are standing in the room they want doing.

Newsletters and programmes

We run a small charity shop and needed a volunteer recruitment leaflet before a collection week. It went into three community groups and the sign up form is built into the back panel, so nobody has to write anything down. We filled the rota in four days.

Keep a Leaflet Private Until Launch

Keep a Leaflet Private Until Launch

Some leaflets are not for everybody yet. Flipbooks AI protects a leaflet with password access, so a trade only price list, an unannounced offer, or a consultation draft going to councillors stays with the people you invited. You can also switch off downloading so a draft does not get forwarded on before you are ready. Secure hosting handles the rest. When the campaign starts, remove the password and the same link is public, with nothing to reissue.

Get the Leaflet Out the Same Afternoon

Printing takes days and a delivery round takes a weekend. A digital leaflet takes minutes. Generate a share link and post it in the local community group, send it to your customer list, or reply with it when somebody asks what you do. Embed it on your website so the leaflet becomes a page rather than a download. Print a QR code for the shop window, the van, the noticeboard, or the back of the paper leaflet itself. Password protection keeps a trade only price list or an unannounced offer to the people you chose.

Features That Keep People Reading

A leaflet gets about one chance, so every panel has to pull the reader to the next one. Flipbooks AI gives you ways to do that. Keep one idea to a panel rather than filling the space. Put the offer where the fold naturally opens. Add a sharing button so a neighbour can send it to the family WhatsApp group, which is how local businesses actually spread. Use a short video where a photograph would have done less work. Put the call button on the last panel as well as the first. Small things, but they are the difference between a leaflet that is glanced at and one that gets acted on.

FlipHTML5 turns PDFs into flipbooks and has plenty of templates. Its free plan adds branding and limits, and the reader statistics a small business would find useful sit behind a paid subscription.

Issuu is a long established publishing platform with real reach. Its free tier carries Issuu branding and caps uploads, so a clean leaflet with only your own logo usually means paying.

Canva is a genuinely good place to design a leaflet, with British paper sizes and a lot of usable templates. Its sharing is a simple viewer, without page turns or the reading figures that tell you what worked.

Adobe InDesign

Adobe InDesign gives you complete control over folds, bleed, and typography, which is why print studios use it. It needs a subscription and some training, and it has no way to publish or track a leaflet online.

Heyzine turns a PDF into an attractive flipbook quickly and is easy to get on with. Its free plan limits how many you keep and adds its own branding, with the better tools on paid accounts.

Printed Leaflet Drop

A paper drop still reaches people who are never online, and it should stay part of the plan. It costs money every time, cannot be corrected once printed, and gives you no idea how many copies were read.

One Off Leaflets for Events and Campaigns

Make a leaflet for a single moment: a summer fete, a shop opening, a Christmas menu, a jumble sale, a consultation deadline, or a fundraising week. Each one gets its own link and its own figures, so you learn which events people opened and which never landed. Retire it the day after without touching your main leaflet. It lets a small organisation run several things at once without the printing bill that would normally decide how many campaigns a year you can afford.

See Which Pages People Actually Read

A paper leaflet drop is a guess. You pay for five thousand copies, hope, and count the phone calls. Flipbooks AI shows how many people opened the digital version, which panels held their attention, and where they stopped reading. If everybody looks at the price panel and nobody reaches the guarantee on the back, you know what to move. Small businesses use it to work out which offer pulled and which streets responded, and councils use it to show that a notice was genuinely read rather than merely delivered.

A Leaflet Tool Ready for the Future

Phones and browsers keep changing, and a leaflet you published last year should still open today. Flipbooks AI keeps up with web standards and new devices, and improvements arrive without any effort from you. Your published leaflets keep working as people replace their handsets, and because everything is hosted there is nothing to install, update, or back up. The link you printed on the van stays good, which is not something you can say about most things printed on a van.

Frequently Asked
Leaflet Maker Online

What is a digital leaflet?

It is your printed leaflet artwork published as an interactive version people open on a phone. The folds turn like paper, and Flipbooks AI does it free, so a reader can tap your number, open a map, or book without leaving the leaflet.

How is a leaflet different from a flyer?

A leaflet is usually folded and carries several panels of information, and it goes through letterboxes, sits in a rack, or is handed out on the high street. A flyer is normally one unfolded sheet promoting a single event. This tool keeps the folds a leaflet needs.

Is Flipbooks AI really free for leaflets?

Yes. It is completely free, with no watermarks and no limits on how many leaflets you publish. Branding, sharing, password protection, and the reading figures are all included at no cost.

Can people ring me straight from the leaflet?

Yes. Put a tap to call button on any panel and a reader on a phone rings you with one tap. You can link the address to a map, the offer to a booking page, and the back panel to your opening hours in the same way.

Will my folded artwork still look right?

Yes. Upload the same PDF you would send to the printer, whether it is DL, A5, A4, or a tri fold, and the panels keep their running order. Readers swipe through them in the order you designed.

How do I share the leaflet with local people?

Post the link in a community group or a neighbourhood chat, send it to your customer list, embed it on your website, or print a QR code for the shop window, the van, or the back of the paper leaflet.

Can I see how many people opened it?

Yes. The figures show how many people opened the leaflet, which panels they spent time on, and where they stopped, so you learn which offer worked instead of guessing after a leaflet drop.

Can I change the leaflet after sharing it?

Yes. Correct a price, change the opening hours, or add a service whenever you need and republish instantly. Everyone sees the current leaflet through the same link, so nothing has to be resent or reprinted.
