Tips on Book Printing

Book printing does not only imply placing ink on paper. Printing entails a number of elements that influence the overall look of the book. Therefore, you should approach all the locations of book printing cautiously. Here are a couple of tips you must think about whilst preparing to print your book:

1. Size of the book: It is important to first decide on the size of your book. Different sizes are accessible for different purposes. For example, there are handbooks, manuals and mass markets. Choose the size that will enhance the look and overall appeal of your book.

2. Method of printing: There are mainly three types of book printing: web press, lithography printing and digital printing.

Web Press printing is for a large printing run and in the range of 10,000 or a higher generally.

Lithography printing (offset printing - or sheet fed) is usually used with book runs in the variety of 500 to ten,000 runs. Digital book printing is used for book runs in the range 1 to 500 books. Although the unit price is greater than lithograph printing, the general cost is much less when a smaller sized quantity run is used in "Testing-The-Market."

3. Print on Demand: Print on Demand (POD) means that more copies of the book can be printed only when they are ordered by customers. This saves time, money and paper.

4. Formatting: Formatting is an important factor, which tends to make your book attractive and effective. Strange spaces, inappropriate fonts and incorrect margins can give your book a clumsy look. Make sure that your printer offers right formatting to your book.

5. Binding: There are many types of book bindings, such as pamphlet binding, saddle stitched binding, side wire binding, spiral/coil binding, comb binding, perfect binding, lay-flat ideal binding, case/hard bound adhesive, case/hard bound smyth sewn, children's case/hard bound, children's board books and children's pop-up books. You can ask the printer for a specific type of binding, according to your preference.
