Product description
Revamp your productivity with our custom Desk Pads, designed to transform your workspace into a well-organised hub. Available in A2 and A3 sizes and in both portrait and landscape orientations, these quality office desk pads provide ample space for notes, sketches and plans.
Crafted from various uncoated stocks, each printed desk pad features a smooth, high-quality writing surface that optimises your daily routine. Choose from 25, 50 and 100 pages with single sided printing tailored to your needs. Edge glueing at the top, left, right or bottom side ensures that the pages stay secure, making it easy to keep your desk tidy and efficient.
Ideal for both home and office environments, our personalised desk pads blend practicality with a sleek design, offering a stylish backdrop for your work. Whether you need A2 desk pads to map out team projects or A3 desk pads for taking notes and brainstorming ideas, these pads provide a versatile solution to inspire productivity in your workspace.
Office supplies, branded gifts, promotional items and more.
Top tip
Keep the central area of your desk pad clear, as this space is often occupied by keyboards and laptops. Place logos and important details, such as telephone numbers and email addresses, along the outer edges to ensure they remain visible and accessible.

Design guidelines
To make artwork setup simple, we recommend downloading the relevant template from the 'Product Templates' section above. Don’t forget to follow the template instructions and delete the 'guide' layer before exporting your design to a PDF.
For best printing results, ensure your artwork and images are CMYK. If you use RGB, Pantone or spot colours in any element of your artwork, we will automatically convert them to CMYK which may change your colour profile.
To eliminate any font issues, make sure all fonts are ‘embedded’ or ‘converted to outlines’ before creating your PDF print file. To ensure legibility, we recommend using a minimum font size of 10pt.
For optimal image print quality, ensure all images are 300dpi to 450dpi. Anything lower than 300dpi will give poor image quality. Images higher than 450dpi will result in high file sizes and may cause longer upload times.
To avoid alignment issues during cutting, be sure to include ‘crop marks’ (offset 10mm) and ‘document bleed’ when exporting your artwork file to PDF. Refer to our product templates for the required bleed specifications.
To meet our print requirements, ensure your file is exported in Adobe PDF (Print) format, ideally as PDF/X-1a: 2001.
