Go to the File menu, then New and From Template.

The Template gallery will open and you need to press CTRL and F on your keyboard to open a search box. Type the word brochure and press Enter on the keyboard. You will see all templates that are called brochures. Choose the one you like the most and click on it. The brochure will open in a new Google docs document.

The last step would be to remove the template text and write your own. You can even change images, fonts, or anything you want. Eventually, the brochure will be personalized and tweaked according to your needs.

In the Page Setup options, change the page orientation from Portrait to Landscape and click OK.

The second thing to do is to click the Table menu and then Insert Table. 3×2 table would be big enough for the start. Again, click the Table menu to open Table Properties. In the column width and row height, type the values. For instance, select value 3 for the column width and value 6 for row height.

The final thing to do is to add content (text, graphics into table-cells). The second column will be a back cover, while the last will be the front cover. Your document will be saved automatically and ready for printing.
