Bespoke Self-Publishing Printing Services
Our self-publishing printing services offer authors a wide range of bespoke solutions to ensure their books are as unique as the story they have to tell. Case-bound or hardback books offer a sophisticated and durable option which ensures they stand out from the crowd. A hardback cover not only protects the pages inside but also gives a solid, permanent feel, ideally suited to important literary works, coffee table books and special editions. Our case-bound book printing services also offer a range of options for print finishes, embossing, de-bossing and more.
Section-sewn books combine the high-quality feel of a case-bound book but with a flexible cover designed to allow the book to lie flat. This allows for maximum page space for images, making section-sewn books the perfect choice for books using photographic images. In addition, the strength of the binding is also ideally suited to reference books, manuals or training publications.
Perfect-bound books have a contemporary, clean look with a professional, seamless finish. This type of format is ideal for books including novels, catalogues, manuals or marketing materials, whilst the square spine and glued edges give a smart appearance. Available in either a matt, gloss or silk finish, perfect-bound books are a versatile choice for a range of publishing projects.
Saddle stitch magazines are a popular choice and are a budget-friendly and straightforward option, perfect for club and society magazines. To create a professional, clean finish, we secure the pages using wire staples along the spine. As with all of our self-publishing products, our saddle stitch magazines are made from high-quality print materials, with a range of print finishes and additional options available.
