Saddle Stitching

The sheets are folded and inserted within each other. The fold becomes the spine (or saddle) of the product, where it will be stapled, holding the sheets of paper in place. We use stitched binding for calendars and catalogs of up to 64 pages.

Perfect Binding

Perfect Binding is the standard for paperback books and catalogs with a considerable number of pages. We use Perfect Binding for catalogs that hold more than 64 pages. The pages are folded and inserted into multiples of 4 sheets and then glued to the cover with a type of flexible adhesive or hot glue. The remaining three sides of the sheets are then trimmed.
