About Perfect Bound Catalog Printing
Present a product collection, manual or proposal in a perfect bound catalog. The glued spine and heavyweight cover create a book-style format for multi-page information. Review the available page counts, inside paper and cover specifications, then use the matching template to allow for the spine and keep content clear of the binding area.
Perfect binding creates a more finished, refined look. A 10pt, C1S cover with no coating is bound with an 80lb gloss book with no coating stock on the inside.

Frequently asked questions
What cover and inside coating options are available for perfect bound catalogs?
What types of stocks can you use for a perfect bound catalog?
What is the minimum and maximum page count for a perfect bound catalog?
What is the bleed requirement for a perfect bound book?
Bleed must extend past the cut line and will be trimmed from the product during the final cutting phase. When the image is required to extend all the
way to the edge, bleed is needed to preserve the finished look and the quality of the final product. Keep all text at least 0.125" inside the cut-line.
