Top View Brochure Mockup
What's inside

Here’s a top view brochure mockup that works well for a product catalogue, an event programme and similar projects.
Good pick for marketing teams, agencies 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.
Seeing a layout on a real brochure is also the easiest way to catch problems early. A phone number that looked fine on screen can turn out too small once it sits on paper.
Use it for
- A product catalogue
- An event programme
- A company profile

Editable options in the Top View Brochure Mockup PSD
Main things you can change in Photoshop:
- Your design, placed through the smart object
- Shadows and highlights on their own layers
- Front and back artwork, where both sides are shown
- Paper texture you can turn up or down
Add your design to the Top View Brochure Mockup
- Set up the design flat at the real print size and keep text inside a safe margin.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Change the background or paper colour with the colour layer.
- Export with File › Export › Export As: JPG for sharing, PNG for the web.
Another tip: 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?
That depends on the author's terms. The download page lists what is allowed; when in doubt, ask the author directly.
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.
