Calculate spine thickness

Once you know how many pages your book will have, you can calculate the spine thickness and design your cover. We have developed a handy tool for this.

Which printing technique is best suited to my book?

If you have a preference, we will leave that up to you. Otherwise, we will automatically go for the most economical option: digital printing for small print runs, offset printing for larger print runs.

Offset printing: LE-UV

LE-UV (Low Energy Ultra Violet) refers to the ink curing technology at the end of our printing press. The lamps cure the ink in an instant, preventing it from being absorbed by the paper. This means that even on uncoated paper types, your colours remain irresistibly bright and vibrant.

Digital printing: HP Indigo 7900

If you have a preference, we will leave that up to you. Otherwise, we will automatically go for the most economical option: digital printing for small print runs, offset printing for larger print runs.

Binding method: thread-sewn

It is extremely popular for good reason. Much of this has to do with the durable nature of the binding, which significantly increases the lifespan of your book.

Binding method: open spine

If you want something different: the big advantage of this binding method is that the book opens flat. Ideal if you work with continuous images or books that need to be written in a lot. The binding thread remains visible, which adds a nice extra touch.

What is a capital band?

The capital band is a small detail that is visible on the spine of your book. Functionally, it provides extra reinforcement, but aesthetically, it also comes in all colours of the rainbow. So it’s fun to match it with your book design!

Press on cut

Designing a book involves more than just the pages and the cover. The choice of materials influences the end result, and extras such as edge printing can give your book a completely new look.

There is a wealth of choices, colours, paper types, finishes and traditional techniques that result in that one perfect message.
