I am trying to make a flyer, its A4 size and i want it to fold into 3 pieces horizontly. Is there a way that i can make 3 guides appear marking where the guides will go?

I would like to divide the page into 3 pieces.

If anyone can help then that would be great.

I am using photoshop cs.

I would like to divide the page into 3 pieces.

View – New Guide – Type in 33.33% (that’s the vertical dimension) Do it again with 66.66%.
Close enough.

Depending on how your folder is folded you may NOT want all three panels of equal width because there may be some ugly overhang caused by the fold itself or if a panel tucks into the other two as in many brochures it may not fold flat. I’d look for a template. And I’d use a page layout program.

Step 1: Don’t use Photoshop–it’s the wrong tool for the job. Use a page-layout program.

Yes; you can create new guides numerically. However, you’re better off setting it up as 3 pages in a page layout program, and building the job that way. It’ll save your sanity; Photoshop is a poor page-layout tool.

Illustrator is much, much better, even though it is not a page-layout tool. —
