Create Your Saddle Stitch
Here you may select the desired type of binding for your calendars.
The ring binding, also called spiral or wire-O bond, is a classic and popular book binding method which is used for presentations in particular. With a metal wire, a twin spiral is formed, which runs through previously perforated sheets of paper. This is a cheap but also stable binding type. Depending on the book thickness or number of sheets, different spiral diameters are used. This enables the best possible turning over of your printed information.
Size is measured in inches (except for Banners).
Your artwork must be submitted in this size plus bleed. For more information please go to Bleed & Safe Area.
If your product includes folding, this is the size before folding.
Catalogs/Magazines and Calendars are not considered folded products. Their size refers to one page.
For catalogs and saddle stitched calendars, pages are available in multiples of 4 because sheets are folded over and bound in the middle, resulting in 4 pages per sheet.
For wire-o calendars, 13 or 14 pages are available.
One way or another, please always set up your print files as single pages and send them in multi-page PDFs.

Tips for a Better Saddle Stitched Booklet
- Keep your content clear: Decide what you want to include before you start and arrange it in a way that's easy to follow. A clear layout makes your booklet more enjoyable to read.
- Pick the right size: Choose a format that suits your content and how you plan to use it, whether it's for a trade show, a product guide, or a company brochure.
- Use high-quality images: For the best print results, make sure your images are at least 300 dpi. This helps keep photos and graphics sharp.
- Proofread before you print: Check your text, images, and layout one last time. A quick review can help you spot small mistakes before your booklet goes to print.
