• I found the site gave me a good guide to the process and also the personal contacts regarding my queries with Donna helped considerably. I was very pleased with the printing result, as was my family when receiving their copy of our family history. I would highly recommend the company to others for an efficient service at a reasonable price.

  It was my first experience of book publishing.
• I ordered 100 perfect bound books and received 10 free, which was great. I have recommended The Book Printing Company to my friends and associates. Self-publishing has been easy thanks to these ladies. The books look great! This company is honest and their customer service is second to none.

Understanding the relationship between paper type, thickness, and your book’s genre will help you make informed decisions that enhance both the aesthetics and functionality of your book.

One of the most common questions we are asked, is what font should be used in a book, "Sans serif" or "serif". There are two primary styles of type: "sans serif" and " serif". "Serifs" are the tiny tails on the text. Most books use a 11 to 12 pt serif font for the body copy and a bold sans serif fonts for chapter titles and headers. Depending on the age of your target audience the larger type could be more suitable.
