Fun & functional

From jotting down quick notes to handing out branded giveaways, a personalized notepad puts your business logo and branding on everyday writing. Use them for new employee kits, client gifts, trade show giveaways or to keep your team's notes on-brand. With our professional templates made for multiple industries, you can find a unique style for lined, grid, calendar and open-ended layouts, or you can upload your own print-ready design.

Sizes & options that fit your workflow

With 4 sizes to choose from – 3.8" x 7.8", 4" x 5.5", 5.5" x 8.5" and 8.5" x 11" – you can add a favorite quote, logo or anything else that makes it yours. All notepads are top-bound and printed on 5.3pt paper. Our smaller notepads can be finished with either a sturdy 24-28pt thick cardboard reserve backing for desks and flat surfaces, or an additional magnetic back that's great for fridges and filing cabinets. So whether you need a compact agenda for the fridge or a full-size legal pad for the office, there's an option for you. Just keep in mind that, because of its size, the 8.5" x 11" notepad comes with a cardboard reserve backing only and isn't available with a magnetic back.

To start creating your custom notepads, choose a size and quantity. Then, browse our professionally created, customizable templates, or upload your design. Last, you’ll be taken to our design studio, where you can update colors, add logos and images and make your legal pads or notepads uniquely yours.

Hit or Miss with Vistaprint

It’s hit or miss how your notepads turn out. Often times the color is not right and they often don’t package them that carefully. The last notepads I ordered came smashed and the color was off. The time before that everything was ok.

My Logo wasn't on it and my name

I was really impressed with the quality of the printing of our logo. The timeliness of the print and delivery was great. I will be ordering again!

New and old

I reordered several things and added a few new things. I have some pamphlets and handout that I love to order rom Vista Print. I can not get them to be as bright and clear on a basic printer and feel like it is worth it to have them printed professionally. I ordered a few new things to hand out to other professionals in the area for marketing. I have vibrant colors in my logo and they always come out clear and appealing.

Not quite as expected

My design came out perfectly based on the preview/proof, but I feel disappointed in the quality of the paper. I ordered the same notepad last year, and the paper was much smoother and had a premium feel. The pad I just received is noticeably more rough and doesn't look as polished. It's "just okay. "
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for your review. We’re sorry the paper quality of your notepad didn’t meet your expectations, especially since you had a better experience with the same product last year. We understand how disappointing it is when the paper feels rougher and less premium than expected. To address your concerns, we’ve taken action on your account, and you’ll receive a separate email with the details. We’ll also be sure to pass your feedback about the paper quality on to our team for review.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Our fully customizable design templates include lined and unlined options.

Yes. Your notepad is printed on acid-free paper with a 5.3pt thickness (104 or 118 gsm). This resists bleed-through with most fountain pens, gel pens and acrylic markers.

Your design will be printed on white paper, but our full-color printing lets you add any colors you want to the whole of your design. The back will remain white.

To pick the right reverse side for your custom notepad printing needs, consider where and how you want to use your notepads. If you intend to use the pad on the go, or while working at a desk, our sturdy, 24-28pt cardboard backing may be right for you. But if you want an easy display option for your fridge or filing cabinets, our magnetic backing could be just what you need. Please note, our magnetic backing is unavailable for our 8.5" x 11" notepads.

Yes, you can upload a finished design to use with your custom notepad.

Not at this time.

When it comes to color choice, we recommend you think about how you’ll be using your personalized notepads – especially what you’ll use to write on them. A legal pad with predominantly dark colors may not be a good choice if you plan to write with a black pen, but a great option if you intend to use a silver marker. And if you’re creating custom notepads for business use, don’t hesitate to use your business colors and add a logo – those details often get noticed by customers or employees.

The right size depends on how your notepad will be used:

  • 3.8" x 7.8" – A compact, slim option that fits easily in a pocket or bag. Great for real estate agents jotting notes or quick reminders on the go.
  • 4" x 5.5" – A classic small notepad size, perfect for to-do lists, phone messages or corporate swag and giveaways.
  • 5.5" x 8.5" – A versatile mid-size option that works well for schools (class handouts, worksheets or student planners) and medical offices (patient instructions, appointment reminders or prescription notes).
  • 8.5" x 11" – Full letter size, best for detailed note-taking, meeting agendas or corporate use where more writing space is needed for things like internal memos, project outlines or client-facing documents.
