Give brochures, reports and catalogues a clean, professional finish with A4 perfect bound printing. Pages are glued into a square spine, creating the familiar look of a paperback. You can print a title on the spine so it remains easy to find on a shelf.
Perfect binding works well for longer documents, with a maximum of 600 pages. Paper and cover weights across the range run from 90gsm to 450gsm, depending on the material and option you choose.
Choose from four stocks for your inner pages:
Covers are available in the same four stocks, plus textured Conqueror CX22 board. Print the outside only or both sides. Choose full colour, black only, matched Pantones, or up to six colours (CMYK plus two Pantones).
Protect your cover with matt, gloss, silk, soft-touch or anti-scuff lamination. You can also add spot UV or metallic foiling to highlight a logo or title.
Select your paper, cover and finishes, then upload your artwork at checkout or send it by email later. If you need help with the design, our team can create it for you.
Standard delivery is free. For express delivery, place your order before 10am and choose delivery within 3 or 5 working days.

Additional options:
Perfect binding is a method of bookbinding, where the pages are simply placed in a vertical stack and glued to the spine of your booklet using flexible glue. The outer edges of your booklet are then simultaneously trimmed to create a ‘perfect’ clean edge.
The perfect binding method offers greater flexibility and creative freedom at a relatively affordable price. Your book can have an even or odd number of pages, and each page can use a different paper stock or colour.
Presentation-wise, perfect bound books also offer identical page size and presentation, with no need to adjust your design for trim creep.
Perfect bound books also offer a spine which can be printed on – so in a stack or shelf of books, yours can still stand out!
You can view our page count options in the table below. Each paper sheet (or ‘leaf’) of your book will have two printed pages (pp); one on each side of the paper.
If you’re still unsure about page counts, or you need a different number of pages to the options here, call us on 023 8087 8037 to discuss your requirements.
Perfect bound books are available in the following standard sizes. Please note that these measurements refer to the size of the brochure when closed:

The right print method will depend on a number of factors; including the product type, quantity and turnaround time you require.
Better Printing can produce your order on either litho or digital, with both available in-house. Our sales team can recommend the most cost-effective solution for your needs and will confirm your preferred method before going to print.
All brochures and booklets are produced in portrait orientation (with the spine located on the longer edge of the booklet) by default. Alternatively, you can specify landscape orientation for your brochures if needed at the checkout stage.
We recommend supplying artwork as single pages in the same order as you want them to appear in the finished brochure. Please avoid supplying your artwork in printer’s pairs or double page spreads, as this may extend production times of your print order.
