How long does it take?

Typical flow: quote, file check, digital proof, print, dispatch. Timelines depend on specification and quantity.

What files do you accept?

Print ready PDF (fonts embedded, CMYK, 300 dpi images) with bleed and safe margins.

What sizes and margins should I use?

Use common sizes (A5, 6x9 in). Allow larger inner margins on thicker books to avoid gutter loss.

How do I calculate spine width?

Rule of thumb: spine_mm = (page_count / 2) x paper_caliper_mm.

Do you print children books, A5 or family history books?

Yes. Paperbacks, casebound keepsakes, and workbooks are all supported.

What is the cheapest way to print a book?

Minimise colour pages, choose common stocks (80–100 gsm text, 250–300 gsm cover), pick popular sizes (A5 / 6x9), and print at price breaks.
