Design guidelines
We recommend using our templates and guides for preparing your print-ready PDF.

You can download our guides and templates in the template section. Remember to delete the template layers before exporting your design to PDF.

If you already have a design, no worries; we accept other file formats, including JPEG, PNG, or EPS.

For photographic content, high-resolution JPEGs are recommended, preferably without compression. For graphics or text-based content, we recommend print-ready, vector-based PDFs. For content that is a combination of graphics and photography, we suggest using print-ready PDFs to ensure the best quality.

Use CMYK as the colour mode.

Prepare your files using CMYK as the colour mode, not RGB. Use colourmode FOGRA39 (ISO Coated v2). If you are unsure of the colour mode of your file, don't worry we can always convert this for you. Keep in mind this can cause the colours to differ from the original file.

Resolution of at least 300 dpi.

Make sure the resolution of the images and graphics in your artwork are at least 300 dpi.

Add 3 mm bleed and keep 4 mm safety margin

During production, there might be a slight cut deviation. To avoid any issues, we recommend the following:

  • Add a 3 mm bleed around all edges of your design.
  • Keep important elements 4 mm away from the edge or folding lines.
  • Avoid using borders or frames on smaller formats like labels or business cards.
Text and fonts specifications (Min. font size is 6 pt)

For this product, the minimum font size is 6 pt. To avoid any issues, we recommend the following:

  • Fonts must be embedded or outlined.
  • If your design contains small black text, make sure it is 100 % black (Cyan: 0 Magenta: 0 Yellow: 0 Black: 100).

Note that we don't check spelling or typographical errors.

Check line thickness.

Lines should be at least 0.25 pt. Negative lines should be at least 0.5 pt.

Check your artwork for overprint.

Make sure no elements in your artwork are set on overprint unless you want this effect in your design. You can read more about overprint in our Help Centre.

Make sure the ink coverage isn't higher than 300%.

Force Colour Images to CMYK with a 260% ink limit (in Photoshop > Convert Colour Profile > Photoshop 5 Default CMYK). Make sure the ink coverage isn't higher than 300%.

Frequently Asked Questions: Stapled Booklets

What are Stapled Booklets?

The stapled booklet is a small book consisting of 8 or more pages that are held together with metal staples. A booklet consists of the internal pages and the cover. Our booklets are available in various sizes, materials and numbers of pages!
This product can be used:
• To introduce people to your business
• As a presentation guide
• As an information guide
• As a price list

Why can my booklets only be printed per 4 pages?

In short, it's to make sure that no pages fall out of the booklet. For example, when you choose an A4 size booklet with 8 pages, we print two A3 sheets (two times as big as A4) and fold them in half, which results in a total of 8 pages.

If you don't have enough content to fill four pages, here are some suggestions: Find a sponsor who would like to add advertisements in your booklet, make use of an extra introduction page or consider going the 'less is more' route and leaving 1 or more pages white.

What is the maximum number of pages per booklet?

The maximum number of pages will depend on the type of paper you choose. Below you can find the maximum amount of pages according to the type of paper:

90gsm silk MC: Maximum of 64 pages
90gsm offset paper: Maximum of 64 pages
90gsm recycled paper: Maximum of 40 pages
110gsm recycled paper: Maximum of 64 pages
120gsm offset paper: Maximum of 64 pages
135gsm gloss MC: Maximum of 64 pages
135gsm silk MC: Maximum of 64 pages
170gsm silk MC: Maximum of 64 pages
170gsm gloss MC: Maximum of 48 pages
170gsm offset paper: Maximum of 48 pages
170gsm recycled paper: Maximum of 48 pages
250gsm gloss MC: Maximum of 36 pages
250gsm silk MC: Maximum of 36 pages
250gsm recycled paper: Maximum of 36 pages

If you would like a booklet with more than 64 pages, check out our Perfect Bound Brochures,Wire Bound Booklets or Hardback Books.

Is the amount of pages equal to the amount of paper sheets?

No. This is because the pages are folded and printed on both sides. A sheet of paper gets folded in the middle so it covers 4 pages (2 on the front and 2 on the back). For instance, when you choose an A4 size brochure with 8 pages, we print two A3 sheets (two times as big as A4) and fold them in half, which results in a total of 8 pages.

What paper type can I choose from?

90 gsm: This paper is our budget paper. It's light, thin and cost-effective - ideal for distribution!
110-120 gsm: This paper is a little thicker and more robust than the 90gsm paper. A moderate option of good quality.
135gsm: This material is lightweight and slightly thicker than printing paper. Thickness: 0.11 mm.
170gsm: This material gives your product a professional look. It's ideal for use at events, fairs and for your business-stand. Thickness: 0.17mm.
250gsm: This paper is mainly used in the hospitality and retail and is three times as thick as printing paper. With a thickness of 0.22 mm, the paper feels pretty solid.

What is lamination and do I need it on my cover?

Lamination is a plastic coating that's applied to a finished printed page. Laminating a cover not only elevates the look and feel of your print, but also extends the longevity. Additionally, it acts as an added layer of protection and helps reduce the risk of creasing, fading, wrinkling, abrasion and tearing. It is important to keep in mind that ordering without lamination could mean the prints may be more at risk of ink or paper damage. When books with lamination are packaged on top of each other in boxes, there is no risk of the ink smudging on the other books.
Note: Laminated paper products are water-resistant, not waterproof.

Can I select any paper type or weight for lamination?

No, not all paper can be laminated. Lamination is only possible for paper with a Glossy or Matte cover of 250 gsm or higher.

What is the fastest possible turnaround?

The fastest possible turnaround varies depending on the specifications you select, and will always be stated at the bottom of the page. To make sure that your order is delivered at the indicated time, it is important that we receive your file with your design for the product by the stated cut-off time. This way, the product can be moved into production promptly.
Please note: The delivery date shifts a day every time the deadline for submission has passed. This is also the case if the file is rejected by us and corrected artwork isn't submitted before the next cut-off time.

Paper thickness inside pages: 170 gsm Silk MC

Paper thickness cover: Cover is the same as the inner pages

"Selfcover" means that your cover is made from the same paper as the inner pages.

Pages (incl. covers): 8

Our stapled booklets always come in multiples of 4 pages. For an 8-page booklet, you should send a single PDF composed of 8 individual pages, including the front and back cover.
