CUSTOM HARDCOVER BOOK PRINTING FULL

Our linen hardcover books can be foil stamped with your design, wrapped in a full color dust jacket or decorated with a beautifully printed inset image set into your books cover. Whether you are designing a family history or an artist's monograph, we are confident we'll be able to decorate your cover beautifully with our comprehensive range of traditional book finishing options. Color images print well on this paper, though blacks will not print quite as dark as they would on the Super Smooth Uncoated described above. We stock this paper in 80lb text weight (120gsm) only. The vellum surface texture appears slightly more matte than the super smooth uncoated stock. This is a bright white paper with good opacity and thickness. We have added this luxurious vellum paper to our line in response to our customers request to have a more toothy paper for their books.

We stock this paper in 80lb text weight (120gsm), though lighter weights are available for books with high page counts. Color images will not print accurately on this stock as the paper base is not a true white. Natural tone papers are considered to be easier on the eyes than bright white papers, and are frequently used for poetry books, novels, and any other text based book which does not contain many, if any images. This paper is identical to the paper described above, but with a pleasing warm white color.

Color images still print very nicely on this stock, though it feels more appropriate for text based books. This paper is slightly rougher and toothier than our photo & art paper described above. We suggest using this paper for books which are primarily text, such as poetry, fiction and memoirs. In this stock we carry 100lb text weight (148gsm) and 80lb text weight (120gsm). We stock this paper in two weights, and the page count of your book will dictate which weight will be used. If you have many images in your books, this is likely the best paper for your book. The super smooth surface and bright white base allow for the most accurate and vivid color reproduction. This paper is best for art, photography and illustration books. Many of the papers we use are manufactured using renewable energy, and all are FSC certified. We have chosen papers from Neenah, Mohawk, and Domtar which print beautifully on our presses and help to create strong and reliable bound books. Our books are printed on high quality papers made by trusted and environmentally responsible American paper mills.
