Short run checklist

Page Set Up

  • Margins: The minimums are 1/2 inch in inner margin and 1/4 inch on top/bottom/front. The bindery makes a final trim of 1/8 inch ont he top, bottom and front edges.
  • Recommended page margins are 1 1/4 inch in inner margin and 1 1/8 inch top/bottom/front.
Paper
  • Do you want acid-free paper?
  • Is the grain of the page running parallel to the bind edge?
  • If the grain is running side to side (short grain) books must be sewn (upcharged service).
  • If the grain is running top to bottom (long grain) gluing may be an option (saves money).
  • If you print double-sided, 60 pound weight paper is a recommended weight. If it is lighter, the ink will show through from the other side.
  • Endpapers must be 80 or 100 pound cougar opaque.
  • Have you communicated well with your book printer and book binder?

A note from one of our clients...

I just wanted to write and tell you what a fantastic job you and your company did in the rebinding or my book. I an scarcely believe it is the same book! The sewing, edge trimming and new cover and general cleanup are all surpurb and has transformed a tattered wreck that I found at a used bookstore into a new book that will last forever.
