Perfect bound books designed and printed by a Glasgow designer

Perfect bound books have a glued, square spine, like a paperback, so they look and feel like a finished book. They suit catalogues, annual reports, magazines, portfolios, self-published books, cookbooks and training manuals. I design and print them for authors, brands, charities and businesses, and they’re delivered anywhere in the UK.

FAQ

01

How many pages can a perfect bound book have?

Choose 32, 40, 48, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160 or 200 pages. Perfect binding starts at 32 pages, so for a shorter document, a stapled booklet from 8 to 64 pages is the better fit.

02

Which cover finish should I choose?

Matt lamination gives a smooth, non-glare finish. Soft-touch has a velvety feel that suits portfolios and books people keep. Gloss gives a shiny finish. Every cover is laminated, on 250gsm or 350gsm silk.

03

How do I supply artwork for a perfect bound book?

Supply single pages in order, including the cover, as one PDF. Add 3mm bleed to every page, keep text 3mm inside the trim and use 300dpi images. I check the whole file before anything is printed.
