Easy File Preparation

To ensure the best results, please follow these simple steps when preparing your files:

  1. First, save your booklet as a single PDF. Make sure the front cover is the first page and the back cover is the last.

  2. Next, check your page count. It must be a multiple of four (e.g., 8, 12, 16). If it is not, we will insert blank pages to complete the booklet.

  3. Furthermore, please use CMYK color mode. By doing this, you avoid unexpected color shifts during the printing process.

  4. Regarding layout, please submit individual pages rather than double-page spreads.

  5. Finally, make sure you page size matches the booklet size you are ordering.

WHAT IS 60# TEXT UNCOATED PAPER. IS THAT WHAT I SHOULD USE FOR BOOKS? Richard Lichtman asked on December 12, 2025

60# text uncoated is a common lightweight, uncoated paper stock used for the interior pages of books, especially novels, workbooks, manuals, journals, and nonfiction.
Uncoated means there is no shiny coating and it has a matte, easy-to-write-on surface.

I have a quick question: when printing, is the first inner content > page printed directly on the back side of the cover and the last page > printed directly on the back side of the back cover? I would assume so > with booklet style? Anonymous asked on September 29, 2025

Correct, page 1 is the front cover and page 2 is the inside front
cover. The same for the back cover were the last 2 pages make up the
inside and outside back cover.
