Perfect size for a school memory book, family year book or professional portfolio, there are just so many possibilities with this classic shape and size.

Our imagewrap photo books are constructed using the highest quality pre-cut imagewrap boards and also are bound on a computer-controlled adhesive binding machine. The casebound binding service offers a spine lining sheet which is applied inside the front and back cover and secures the fold over of the cover sheet. Covers are laminated and pages are hot-glued to the cover, which again is ideal for all of our on-demand products.

Single-Sided Printing for Softcover

by , Mon 12 of Sep, 2011 (06:06 UTC)
I am interested in the single-sided printing option for a perfect bound softcover. I am setting my file up in InDesign. Should I set up each page in order and trust that the final book will have a white, unprinted page in between each page I submit in the PDF, or should I include a white page in the PDF?

Greetings from Viovio!

You do not need to format the book in any special way - if you select 1 sided printing, there will only be printing on one side of the page.

difference between Imagewrap Hardcover and Perfect Bound Softcover?

by Amy Han, Tue 05 of Jul, 2011 (21:50 UTC)
I have a question. I made a photo book with 88 pages. I can't decide if I should get Imagewrap Hardcover with "Express Photo Silk Paper" or Perfect Bound Softcover with "Premium Photo Printing". I don't really care if it's hard or soft cover. But I want to find out which one has better paper or better printing quality ... or maybe they are the same things inside? Thanks!

InDesign and Bleeds

by Amanda, Fri 25 of Feb, 2011 (03:32 UTC)
Hi, I have a facing page InDesign file currently set up at 8.5x11 with 1/8" bleed all the way around. My question is, when I export the pdf checking the use document bleeds option, the result is that each page has an 1/8" snippet of the opposite page either on the left or the right depending on which side of the book you are looking at. Is there a way to mediate this?

Question about pages

by marciemorra, Mon 29 of Nov, 2010 (20:30 UTC)
When you say minimum 20 pages, does this mean its 10 pages total (front and back printed?)

Marcie,

All interior pages are printed as two-sided (just like a novel). Each side of a piece of paper is a page :)

If you have anymore questions please let us know!

Minimum amount of pages

by Jennifer ONeill, Fri 05 of Nov, 2010 (15:41 UTC)
What is the minimum number of pages for the hardcover and softcover books? I can't tell from above - it says two different things in the header paragraph (20 pages) vs. under Min / Max Pages (24 pages).
