Book Production

Book We prefer to read books for self-improvement, to learn something new or to make use of our free time. We find the opportunity to expand our horizons as well as our perspective on life through books. However, the design of the books we read is as important as their content.

What is a Book?

A book is defined as a collection of printed or handwritten pages, both bound and unbound. To put it more broadly, it is a reading book with a cover that is attached to the outside by joining from one edge, in other words, a binding technique is applied and printed pages are brought together. Apart from the usual books, today, especially those who work in the academic field prefer to print long notes or studies that they consider important in order to create practicality.

Which techniques are used in book printing?

Although book printing may seem like a more laborious task compared to catalog, brochure and insert printing, it can be understood that it is extremely easy thanks to today's developing technology. The ways to be followed in the printing process can be listed as follows;

• When printing books, glossy or matte coated papers between 115 and 200 grammage are used for the inner pages. After the printing of the inner pages is completed with techniques such as pantone color, CMYK and offset, they can be covered with embossed embossing and lacquer application.
• The cover is the most important part of the book that emphasizes its visuality. For this reason, 300 gr. American Bristol cardboard is preferred for cover design. However, in line with personal demands, printing can also be applied with coated or fancy papers. After the cover printing is completed, embossing, foil gilding and lacquer techniques can be applied on it like the interior pages. It is also possible to create a glossy and elegant appearance on books by applying cellophane to the covers.
• During the book printing process, graphic design programs can also be used at extra cost. Applications such as photoshop and illutrator within the scope of graphic design increase the external visuality of the book.
• At the end of all the processes, your books are bound and delivered to you safely.

What are Book Binding Methods?

There are different book binding methods. Post-press binding is shown in three stages.

• American book binding stands out among book binding methods. With this technique, it is ensured that the pages stick to each other with the help of gluing from the spine. It can be ordered in the desired quantity with both digital and offset printing techniques.
• Hard cover book binding is a method obtained by gluing the inner pages to the spine or attaching them to each other with thread stitching and mounting the image on the cover after grinding it on the cardboard.
• The cardboard binding is known as the most robust binding technique. It is handled in two different types. The first is the sponge binding, which makes the book cover feel thick and soft to the touch. The second is the sponge-free binding, which allows all kinds of writings and pictures to be added freely on the cover. Since the thickness of the binding is adjusted at least 3 mm. and left 1 cm. wider than the printing on the inside, the rate of protecting the book against external factors is very high.
