What is a Booklet and What Kind Will You Print?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A booklet is usually a thin, saddle-stitched book with less than 96 inside pages with a paper cover. You can choose a self-cover booklet, where the cover is the same paper as the inside pages or pick a plus cover which has a little bit heavier card stock. There are many great custom options when it comes to building the best booklet ever, but first you should decide what kind of booklet you are making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Booklets usually promote one particular subject and give you detailed descriptions and information or advertising and can set your company, school or organization apart by making a positive and long lasting first impression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the most popular types of booklets that we print<\/span>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Design Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Ok, so maybe you already know why you need a booklet. Maybe you even know what it will be about! Well congrats, because you are ahead of the game and you are in the right spot. Now you just need design help on how to get your information on the page in an attractive way. Many people don\u2019t know where to start when it comes to booklet and catalog design. Follow these helpful tips to make the daunting task of design simple. (If you were so inspired and would rather not read today, feel free to order now!<\/strong><\/span><\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Start by outlining the goal of the catalog or booklet and focus on what you want to accomplish.<\/strong> Your purpose for the booklet can drastically influence its design. If you\u2019re looking to raise brand awareness or acquire a later sale via phone call or website visit, think about designing a catalog with a lookbook<\/strong><\/a> or a photo booklet<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Organize your design around how you intend the booklet to be used.<\/strong> Sometimes putting a mockup together is helpful in laying out ideas. Don\u2019t forget the design and print quality of your catalog is just as important as the information. It doesn\u2019t matter how great your information is. If you have poor images and poor print quality, your audience will get bored and won’t read your material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Put yourself in the shoes of your audience.<\/strong> What will attract them? What will keep them turning the pages? Finding the right image for your product is also very important. There is a plethora of websites that offer copyrighted, free and royalty-free stock photos to fill your creative needs. When you decide to use an image from any website, be sure to read the terms of service to know the rules or regulations and don\u2019t forget to check for a high resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Consider adding pages if you have lots of information.<\/strong> Do not try to cram it all into a booklet that is too small. Add a few pages or upgrade to a larger size booklet. You don\u2019t want to overwhelm your audience with too much information that isn’t even legible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    Print Project Specifications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
