Turn a manuscript into a finished reading copy with trim sizes that feel familiar in hand. Print proof copies before launch, short-run paperbacks for readers, or hard cover editions for gifts, libraries, events, and premium author presentations.
Bring your idea and branding. Our designers can help turn them into artwork for your next print project.
Novel printing usually starts with one of three goals: a proof copy, a reader-ready paperback, or a premium hard cover edition. Choosing the goal first helps decide size, binding, and cover setup.
Proof copies for final review
Print one or a few copies to check line breaks, chapter starts, margins, page numbers, cover alignment, and spine readability before a larger run.
Paperbacks for regular readers
Perfect binding gives novels a flexible paperback finish that works well for author copies, review copies, book clubs, and direct sales.
Hard covers for premium use
Hard cover binding is better for launch gifts, library placement, family keepsakes, collector copies, and formal presentation editions.
Trim size changes how a manuscript feels. Smaller sizes feel intimate and portable, while larger sizes give more room for margins, larger type, and thicker manuscripts.
Compare the available specifications and choose the option that suits your needs.

Prepare cover with spine in mind
For thicker books, the cover should account for back cover, spine, and front cover. Spine width depends on page count and paper.
