What is a Case Bound book?

A Case Bound Book, also known as a Hardback Book, is like a treasure you'd find in a bookstore. Its inner text pages are skillfully bound together and securely nestled within a durable cover made of heavy-duty board, adorned with beautifully printed paper.

What size books can I print?

We offer an incredible range of standard sizes, including square and novel formats. And if you're feeling extra creative, we even have a custom-sized option available, allowing you to go as big as 300 x 300mm.

How many pages can I print in my book?

Our Case Bound Books can accommodate up to a whopping 500 printed pages. However, for the best results, we recommend a minimum of 32 pages for Case Bound books. If your project falls below this page count, our saddle stitched book option is the perfect fit.

How do I figure out how wide my spine is?

Simply let us know the number of pages you need, remembering to add four extra for the cover, and we will let you know the dimension on your quote.

Can I add any special finishes to my book?

Absolutely! Let your book shine like a star with our incredible selection of special finishes. We've got the glitzy gloss and the velvety soft touch laminations, guaranteed to make your publication stand out from the crowd. And if you're feeling extra fancy, our Scodix UV and foil finishing options will add that perfect touch of luxury and sophistication.
