Use these guidelines to help you determine which finishing solution is right for you.
Flats:
A single printed sheet, which may be folded, laminated, UV coated, or foil imprinted. The sheet may also be trimmed.
Stitched Sets:
Collated documents bound by stitching or stapling, which penetrates the media from one side of the first sheet to the other side of the last sheet.
Booklets:
One or more printed sheets, which are creased, folded, and stitched from the inside to the outside on the fold. The images are imposed on the printed sheets so that pages are in the correct order for reading.
Perfect Bound:
Individual book pages are printed on signatures, which are then stacked together in a book block and glue-bound to a flexible cover. The edges of the book block are covered and trimmed flush.
Lay Flats (Coil Bound):
Individual sheets are punched with holes and stacked together then mechanically bound offline. Separate front and back covers of heavier stock may be used. Binding methods include wire and plastic coil, plastic comb, and 3, 5, and 7 ring binders.
Tape Bound:
Individual sheets are grouped together and commonly bound to a front and back cover. Adhesive tape is wrapped around the book block, overlapping the front and back covers along the spine edge.
Case Bound:
Individual book pages are printed on signatures, which are then stacked together in a book block and glue-bound to a rigid cover. The edges of the book block are covered and trimmed flush.
