You can explore the full variety of paper stock, finishing and binding types, quantity of books and personalisation options. Depending on how many pages you would like to print, the type of book you choose could be different. For example, perfect bound books are better for a large number of pages. Whereas hardback books may be better suited to a lower count of pages to ensure there isn’t a large amount of pressure on the spine.

Matte lamination offers a more professional and elegant finish to the cover of your book. It can often be described as a velvety finish. You’ll often see matte lamination on most paperback, perfect bound books.
