Same-day delivery
In a hurry.. don’t panic..
We can now offer same-day delivery via UBER for print jobs that we cannot deliver ourselves so even if you have a small order, we can arrange for delivery the very same day.
In fact, if you are local you could receive your printing within 20 minutes of your job being completed.
NOTE: This service is chargeable and usually cost £10.
This is not a tracked service and UBER deliveries do not supply photo tracking.
How do I supply artwork for a perfect bound book?
Please supply your booklet in single page format, in the correct running order from start to finish, for example a 20 page booklet will run from pages 1-20 with page 1 being the front cover and page 20 being the back cover.
Please do not supply your booklet as printers’ pairs or as spreads. The total number of pages must be divisible by 4. We recommend you avoid content that crosses two adjoining pages.
The closer to the centre pages of a book, the more has to be trimmed off the page edges. While our imposition software makes allowances for this, it is not recommended to have text or images too close to the edges of your booklet pages. We recommend a gap of at least 5mm on all edges.
More information
We offer a variety of booklet binding options to suit different projects and page counts, including saddle stitch, perfect bound, case bound (hardback), and wiro bound booklets. Each binding type offers a unique finish and is suitable for different types of content and usage.
The most common sizes for saddle stitch booklet printing are A5 and A4 portrait. These sizes are cost-effective and straightforward to produce, making them ideal for programmes, brochures, and newsletters.
The main difference is the binding method:
Stapled booklets are stapled through the fold and are ideal for short documents. (The most common and cheapest option)
Perfect bound booklets are glued along the spine and better suited for thicker publications, offering a more professional and polished look. (These do cost considerably more than stapled books)
Yes, you can print on the spine of a perfect bound booklet, provided the spine is thick enough. This is ideal for adding titles or branding, especially when your booklet will be displayed on shelves. You can calculate the spine width directly on the product page when placing your order.
Send us a print-ready PDF with the correct bleed, safe zones, margins, and pages in the correct order. Need help? We are here to support you. You can contact us for guidance on supplying artwork for booklet printing.
Absolutely. Our quickest and best-value option is the Saddle Stitch booklet. Simply export a PDF with pages set to the correct size, and you're good to go. We will give your files a once over but remember t check your spellings before you send your files.
Certainly.. Our team of designers can design your books and booklets. The more information you supply the less time would be required.. Our currect rates for artwork are £50 per hour.
You can also design your own using many online platforms with temples like CANVA.

Perfect bound booklets have gained significant popularity in both creative and professional industries due to their lavish cover materials and impeccable precision finish. This premium binding method is perfect for brochures, catalogues, magazines, and any publication with a substantial number of pages.
How are perfect bound books made?
Our perfect bound books are produced through a two-step process. First, the inner pages are grouped together, while the outer cover is printed separately. These elements are then seamlessly combined by gluing the inner pages to the inside of the cover at the spine. The result is a sturdy and long-lasting structure capable of withstanding extensive use.
