Folio

The folio is simply one page - one side of a half-folded sheet. In publishing terms, it also refers to the page number of a publication, as opposed to the actual position of the sheet in the document.

For position only

abbr. FPO
For position only (FPO) refers to the placement of a dummy image, dummy text, graphic or blank box as a placeholder - during the proofing or editorial process - to indicate that there is a real image or 'live' copy still to come.
 
Sometimes the correct image may be in place, but it will only be a low-resolution, non-printing image, until a high resolution version has been scanned and imported. It is particularly important in these cases to identify the images as FPO, to prevent the accidental sending of the file to pre-press, for output.

Flyer

extend. Leaflet
Usually a single sheet or handbill designed to be handed out or picked up by consumers.
