Books and newsletters

Books

Books are folded sheets of a document which are collated and bound. We offer different binding options depending on the amount of pages and the type of paper. The binding options include; side stitch, saddle stitch, coil bound, and perfect bound. All options are available in house and we also have samples of each. Some products that are commonly ordered and bound are; program guides, convocation booklets, calendars, newsletters, annual reports and promotional booklets etc. If you have an upcoming printed project please don't hesitate to ask our advice on a bound book.
