Guidelines for advertorials in the print sector
Definition
A publicity report is a special commercial form of advertising. It is written and designed in the style of an editorial article and usually by the advertising client. The publicity report provides specific and detailed information about a company, a product or a service, whereby images and logos may be used within the framework of the design specifications.
Requirements and specifications
Publicity reports are placed in the editorial environment.
- The font and layout must be visibly different from those of the editorial content.
- No use of sans serif fonts for legends, intertitles, interview questions and boxes. (SonntagsZeitung)
- The text/image ratio is approx. 2/3 text and 1/3 image. (Berner Zeitung)
- Readers must be able to clearly recognise whether they are on editorial pages or in paid space.
- The publicity report must be set in a line frame.
- Publication reports are clearly labelled by the publisher in the header with "Publireportage" / “Publicité” / "Pub".
- The advertiser must be clearly identifiable (name, company, logo, etc.).
- The use of keywords for the title that are derived directly from the layout of the publication is not permitted.
- No price announcement in the picture, but approximate price announcement permitted in the text. (Berner Zeitung)
- The number of columns must not be identical to the number of columns in the editorial text.
- Running text must not be wrapped in 5 or 6 columns.
- Eine identische Unterzeichnung des Artikels (Autor), wie sie von der Redaktion verwendet wird, ist nicht gestattet.
Format
Minimum format: 1⁄4 page.
Data delivery: Print-ready PDF, image resolution 300 dpi.
Decision
The layout of the publicity report must be submitted to the relevant sales and editorial management. If the requirements are not met, such an advertisement can also be rejected with appropriate justification.
Prices and production
The prices for publicity reports are subject to the applicable advertising rate. As a rule, the advertisement is delivered ready for printing (PDF) by the customer. If the design is handled by an internal Tamedia production team, images, logos and texts of the appropriate quality must be supplied in good time by agreement. The production costs will be invoiced separately on a time and material basis.
Handling
- Possible format and placement depend on the title in which the publicity report is to appear and are available on request.
- The delivery of the printing material takes place after consultation, depending on the title at least 10 days before the advertising deadline.
- Journalists, photographers and layout artists only start work after the publicity report has been officially booked. If a booking is cancelled, the editorial services already provided will be charged at cost plus expenses.
