Funeral program PDF

A funeral program PDF that is genuinely print-ready

Not every PDF prints correctly. A folded program needs its pages arranged for the fold, bleed for anything that runs to the edge, and crop marks so the shop cuts in the right place. Every program here downloads as three PDFs prepared for exactly that, and the free sample is one of them.

  1. Print-shop PDF. Printer spreads with 3 mm bleed and crop marks. Hand it to any commercial printer or office supply store as it is.
  2. Home-printer PDF. The same spreads at exact size with no bleed, with light fold and cut guides. Print at 100% on both sides, flipped on the short edge.
  3. Reading-order PDF. Pages 1, 2, 3, 4 in sequence, for reading on a screen, emailing to relatives, or posting alongside the obituary.

A finished program, not a blank template

Most "funeral templates" are a layout you still have to design, on a day you have no time for it. This is different: type the details once, and every piece is made for you — matching, print-ready, checked.

A template in a design app · an evening

You do the designing

  • Pick one of hundreds that look alike, then type the same name into six boxes.
  • Resize the photo yourself and hope it prints sharp.
  • Work out which page goes where when the sheet is folded.
  • Export, guess at bleed and margins, print, find the back is upside down.
  • Start again for the prayer card, the bookmark, the sign — none of them match.
  • Nobody to ask when it goes wrong at the copy shop.
Here · about ten minutes

You enter the details; we make every piece

  • Name, dates, order of service, obituary, a photo — once. Every page appears as you type.
  • The photo is placed, framed and checked for print quality; you are told if it is too small.
  • Pages are already in printing order, with bleed and crop marks for the shop and exact size for home.
  • What you see on screen is the PDF, to a third of a millimetre — proven on every build.
  • 61 designs, each making the program, cards, bookmark, sign, guest book and slideshow to match.
  • Free corrections after you pay, and a person who answers when a print goes wrong.

$29.95 for the program · $89.95 for the complete set — one payment, files in minutes, nothing shipped.

What print-ready means

A funeral program template PDF you find online is usually a single page in reading order. It looks right on screen and prints wrong, because a bifold program is one sheet printed on both sides and the pages are not in reading order on that sheet: page 4 sits beside page 1 on the outside, page 2 beside page 3 on the inside. Arranging pages this way is called imposition, and it has to be done before printing. Funeral program page order explains it with a diagram.

Bleed is the second thing. If a photo or a colored band runs to the edge of the page, the file needs a few millimeters of extra image past the trim line, so that a cut that is slightly off does not leave a white sliver. Crop marks show the shop where to cut. A PDF without bleed and crop marks can still be printed, but a good shop will either ask you for a corrected file or add a white border you did not want.

Why we produce three files instead of one

A print shop and a home printer want different things. The shop wants bleed and marks on oversized paper it will trim; a home printer cannot print to the edge and needs the page at exact size on Letter paper with a faint line showing where to fold. Sending the shop file to a home printer produces a program that is slightly too small; sending the home file to a shop loses the bleed. So both are generated, and a third in reading order for anyone who will only ever see it on a screen.

All three are regenerated together every time you edit. Fix a name on the cover and download again, and the imposition, bleed and marks are still correct — there is nothing to redo by hand. How to print a funeral program shows which file to use where and what settings to choose.

Check the file before you pay

The free sample is a real print-shop PDF from this site, not a picture of one. Open it in any PDF viewer, or take it to the shop you plan to use and ask whether they can print it; most will say yes on the spot. Then create your own knowing the output is the same.

Questions

Is the funeral program PDF editable?
The PDF itself is a finished print file. Editing happens in the online editor, where you can change any text or photo and download new PDFs as often as you need, free, within the correction window.
What size are the PDFs?
The bifold and booklet programs are half-Letter pages on Letter sheets (5.5 × 8.5 in folded); the trifold is a Letter sheet in landscape. A4 versions of the bifold and trifold are available for families outside the US. Sizes are shown on every product page.
Can I open the PDF in Word or Canva?
There is no need. The PDF is ready to print as it is. If you want to change something, use the editor and download again.
Do office supply stores accept the print-shop PDF?
Most do. It is a standard PDF with bleed and crop marks. If you print in-store yourself, use the home-printer file at 100% scale with double-sided printing set to flip on the short edge.
Are fonts and photos embedded?
Yes. Everything is embedded in the PDF, so it looks the same on any computer and any printer.
