What is Perfect Bound Booklet Printing?

Method of bookbinding where a flexible adhesive attaches a paper cover to the spine of the assembled signatures is called perfect binding. Perfect binding puts all the pages or signatures together, roughens and flattens the edge, then a flexible adhesive attaches the paper cover to the spine. Paperback novels are one example of perfect binding. Booklets, telephone directories, and some magazines use perfect binding methods. Compared to other binding methods, perfect binding is quite durable and has a low to medium cost. It can be used with publications that are several inches thick. The Perfect Bound Books we print and produce come in two sizes, the most popular being 8.5×11 inch or the half-size 5.5×8.5 booklets and catalogs which are also a popular design.

Perfect Binding Catalogs vs. Saddle Stitching Booklets

Perfect Binding goes by many names depending on the specific process involved, but generically, perfect binding is similar to book binding whereby the folded signatures of a booklet are collated and the excess paper on the binding edge is ground off and glued, or sewn, into a cover forming a spine.

Saddle-stitching does not have a spine. The printed catalog signatures are folded and stitched (stapled) at the binding edge before trimming. Saddle-stitch binding has a page limit, so your choice does depend on your project.

Perfect Binding is a widely used soft cover book binding method. With this binding method, the pages and cover are glued together at the spine with a strong yet flexible thermal glue. The other three sides of the book are then trimmed as needed to give them clean “perfect” edges.

Unlike our regular Multi-Page Booklets, the page count specified in the product name does not include the cover. E.g. “8.5 x 11, 52-Pages” will require you to upload 52 inside pages + a cover file (which is always 4:0). Templates are available for the covers of the Perfect Bound Booklets and relate to the number of inside pages. The normal 8.5×11 and 8.5×5.5 flat, Flyer templates can be used for all the inside pages. Templates are available for both the cover and inside pages of the perfect bound books.

Magnets Attract Customers

Everyone is looking for new ways to attract customers.  With no shortage of options available, choosing the right method of promotion can be challenging.  You need to find what will work best for your own business.  Magnets are just one of the many options that has proven successful across a wide range of industries.  Marketing with magnets could be the effective promotion you have been looking for.

Magnets come in a wide range of sizes.  This allows you to choose the right size for the amount of information you want to provide.  The smallest size available is 2 x 3.5 inches.  This size is the standard business card size and it is available in standard, oval or rounded corners.  Although this is the smallest size, that doesn’t mean it can’t be effective.  If you only need to display your logo and phone number, this size can work very well.  Magnets are also available in other sizes such as 4 x 3, 4 x 6, 4.25 x 6, 4 x 7, 4 x 8, 4 x 11, 5 x 7 or 8.5 x 5.5.  If you want to maximize the size of your magnet, you can choose the large magnet size options.  This is ideal if you want to incorporate instructions or information into the design of your magnet. A popular magnet size is 4 x 6 or 5 x 7 which are ideal for  special events or dates such as Save the Date or fundraising affairs.

Marketing with magnets

Magnets are an ideal choice for service businesses. The reason is because although people may be interested in your service, they may not need it at this time.  With a magnet, you can ensure they remember you when they do need your service.

If you run an auto repair business, a magnet will remind people to call you when their car breaks down or they need an oil change.  If you are a dentist, a magnet can help your patients remember that they need to visit you every three to six months for a cleaning.  And if you run a bail bonds business, whoever is at home will know to call you if one of their family members ends up in trouble.

Another benefit of magnets is that they are easy to distribute.  You can include them in mailings or hand them directly to people.  The reason that magnets are so effective is because people keep them in a very visible location.  While it’s common for people to throw away promotional materials like postcards or flyers, chances are your magnet is going to end up on their refrigerator instead of in their trashcan.

If you’re ready to see what magnets can do for your business, it’s easy to order them online.  Printed on 17PT magnetic stock, these magnetic cards are printed with the highest quality and in vibrant colors. If this will be your first time to order magnets online, you will find that the process is very easy to do.  One advantage of ordering online is that you can have your magnets printed in full color.  While full color magnets for your business will look great, they don’t have to cost a fortune.  They offer durability, extended exposure, and efficiency along with huge savings. Ordering online will allow you to take advantage of prices that are comparable to the cost of wholesale magnets.
