Paper & Cover Choices
Interior Paper
- Uncoated stocks (80–120gsm): Warm, readable, great for text-heavy books.
- Coated stocks (105–157gsm): Crisp images, strong color, ideal for photo-rich pages.
- Specialty: Cream, recycled, and textured options available.
Cover Stocks
- Coated cover (250–350gsm): For sharp graphics and photography.
- Textured / specialty: For a premium tactile finish.
- Board: For hardcover case wraps with cloth or printed finishes.
Cover Finishes
Tip: If your design has heavy dark coverage, we recommend matte or soft-touch lamination to resist scuffing during shipping.
Proofing Options
We offer proofing based on your timeline and quality needs:
- Digital proof: Fast approval for content, layout, and pagination. Sent via email.
- Pre-production sample: Physical copy produced on the actual press and paper stock. Recommended for new formats, premium finishes, or brand-critical projects.
Production Method
Your quantity and budget determine the method:
- Offset printing: Cost-efficient for runs of 500+. Consistent color across the entire run.
- Digital printing: Best for shorter runs, prototypes, and quick-turn projects.
