Perfect Bound Booklet Sample

Our Perfect Bound Sample allows you to order a single printed booklet using your own supplied artwork. Each copy is made to order using the same high-quality materials and finishes as our full production runs, giving you a clear idea of how your final product will look and feel. It’s the ideal way to review print quality, paper options, spine finish, and lamination before committing to a larger order.

Curious about going perfect bound? Start with a single copy.

Whether you're exploring options or fine-tuning your design, this is a simple way to see the final product before placing a full run.

How It Works

Place an order for one booklet using your chosen specifications.

Once your order is placed, you’ll receive a £100 discount code via email. This will arrive in a separate message from your order confirmation, typically within 10 minutes.

You can use this code on your next order of Perfect Bound Booklets, with a minimum order value of £500. The discount code is valid for three months from the date it is issued.

Ready to Place Your Full Order?

If you’re happy with your sample and ready to move forward, simply place your full order for Perfect Bound Booklets and apply your £100 discount code at checkout. A minimum order value of £500 applies.

Technical Specifications for Perfect Bound Books

Setting Up Design Files For Perfect Bound Books

Artwork Submission:

1. Submit Two Files:

  •    Cover Pages: Submit as a spread including the spine. Use our spine width calculator to ensure the correct spine size.
  •    Inner Pages: Submit as individual pages in running order.

For example, for a 40-page brochure, supply an inner PDF of 36 pages and a cover PDF of two pages (page 1 is the outside cover spread, and page 2 is the inside cover spread).

File Requirements:

  • Page Total: Booklets must contain a page total divisible by 4.
  • Safe Zone: Do not place words, page numbers, or images too close to the edges. Maintain at least a 10mm safe zone on all sides.
  • Non Printable Area: Leave the spine area on the inside cover blank, ensuring 6mm on both sides of the fold, including the spine, for optimal glue adhesion.
  • Bleed: Include a 3mm bleed on all sides.
  • Colour Mode: Supply as a CMYK PDF.
  • Fonts: Outline or embed all fonts.
  • Resolution: Ensure a 300dpi resolution.

Lamination Recommendation:

We recommend adding lamination to the cover pages for protection. During production, the spine is glued to the inner pages using a clamp, which may cause scuffing or printer marks around the spine area and any other heavy ink coverage area on the cover.
If lamination is not desired, reduce graphics or background colours crossing into the outer and inner spine area.
