How to Print Your Booklets

How to upload your files

We’ll accept your booklet files however you’d like to upload them. Send single pages or spreads as individual files or put all your pages in a combined file. We can work with either.

The maximum file upload is 2GB. Please contact our team if your file size is larger and we'll help you get your file into the workflow.

Cover

As you’re uploading your files for your booklet pages, keep in mind that the cover actually consists of four pages. There’s the front cover, inside front cover, back cover, and inside back cover.

Bleed

For all booklets, we ask for a 3mm bleed on each page. Please refrain from adding important content to this area.

Binding

We have three binding options available for booklets, including saddle stitched or stapled, perfect bound, and wiro bound. Please keep in mind that binding options may depend on the number of pages in your booklet. With too few pages, you may be limited to saddle stitched, whereas too many pages might require perfect bound. When you add all your pages to your order, our automatic system will suggest the best binding option for your booklet.

Spine for Perfect Bound

If you choose perfect bound for your booklet, the spine will contain a design. You must upload a separate file for the spine; once the booklet is in your cart our system will calculate the depth of your spine. If you do not upload a separate file for the spine of your booklet, we must leave it blank.

Completing your order

You must ensure all placeholders are completed before you can submit your order. If your booklet contains 20 pages, for example, then all 20 boxes must be filled. You can only add pages in multiples of 4, so if you do not have enough content then you must add blank pages.

Custom Size Booklet Printing

We offer custom size booklet printing, so you can create US industry sizes and other unusual sizes to make your printed booklets truly unique.

Simply select the Custom Size button on our booklet cost calculator and play around with the Width and Height fields to create your ideal size. This feature is perfect for printing square booklets in a variety of miniature sizes.

Please note that there may be some booklet size restrictions and ratios required for your booklet due to the size of the printing press plates that we use in our production.

Booklet Binding Types

There are generally 3 types of booklet binding – Staple Bound, Perfect Bound and Wiro Bound. Although they are often referred to by similar names. We also offer hardcover books and layflat books, which use similar binding methods.

Staple Bound
Also known in the trade as Saddle Stitched. Pages are bound by 2 staples through the middle of the booklet. This is the most affordable form of booklet binding and commonly used for magazines, zines, brochures and comic books.

Perfect Bound

Also known in the trade as PUR, which is an abbreviation of PolyUrethane Reactive adhesives. Perfect Bound booklets have their pages glued into a flat spine. Perfect bound booklets typically include paperback books, high end magazines, graphic novels, catalogues and prospectus.

Wiro Bound

Also known as Wire Bound, because pages are held together by a loop of wire that winds through holes punched in the papers. Wiro bound booklets are typically diaries, notepads, manuala and activity books.

Should I upload single pages or double page spreads?

We recommend uploading single pages organised within a single PDF file..

Do you offer perfect bound booklet printing?

Yes. We’re one of the best perfect bound printing companies in the UK. PUR binding requires a minimum number of pages.

Do I need to upload a separate cover file?

Only if your booklet is going to be perfect bound. You have the option of uploading a double page spread with spine for your cover file. Or you can upload the front cover, back cover and spine file separately.

For small runs, we tend to print your booklets on HP Indigos for digital printing and for larger runs of 1,000+ copies, we use Heidelberg Speedmasters for offset litho printing. For more information, please see our plant list.
