A modern tri-fold brochure mockup, made for presenting a tri-fold brochure. Drop in your artwork and the lighting and shadows stay as they are.
Good pick for agencies, print designers or anyone putting together a portfolio. A small tip: match your panel widths to the fold lines in the smart object; tri-folds have one slightly narrower panel.
Clients sign off faster when they can picture the finished piece, and a flat PDF rarely does that as well as a photo of the brochure. For a complete brand board, show it next to a business card and a notebook.
Dribbble Graphics created this one and hosts the download on their own site, so you always get the latest version straight from the source.
Editable options in the Modern Tri-Fold Brochure Mockup PSD
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Your design, placed through the smart object
- Paper or background colour
- Shadows and highlights on their own layers
- Front and back artwork, where both sides are shown
Add your design to the Modern Tri-Fold Brochure Mockup
- Set up the design flat at the real print size and keep text inside a safe margin.
- Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
- Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
- Turn the texture layer up or down to match the paper you’ll print on.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
Export your artwork at the size the smart object asks for; scaling a small file up is the usual reason print mockups look soft.

Questions about this mockup
What licence does it come with?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Dribbble Graphics. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the brochure?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Will my artwork look printed or pasted on?
Most print mockups keep the paper texture and lighting on separate layers above your design, so it takes on the grain and shadows. If it still looks too clean, lower the opacity of your artwork a little.
