Book paper

The kind of paper used in your book affects its appeal, functionality and the reader’s experience. Not every type of paper is suitable for every type of book. High-grammage papers, for example, are not used for printing fiction because stiff pages make the book heavy, uncomfortable and difficult to read. On the other hand, premium grade papers are used for sophisticated albums that require superior print quality and crisp graphics.

To make the choice of paper for your book easier, why don’t you check out our offer and suggestions? If you are looking for a specific paper and can’t see it listed here, contact us and we will get it for you!

Frequently asked questions

What is the best paper for my publication?

This question is too general to give a definite answer. When choosing the paper for the main part of the book, many aspects have to be considered, including the nature or type of publication, its purpose, dimensions, readers, and even the available budget. First, we need to answer a few elementary questions, e.g. whether the paper should be white, cream or off-white, coated or uncoated, standard or recycled. Providing such descriptive details will be enough for us to suggest the best paper for your book.

How long is a quote valid?

The price estimate given by our printing house remains valid for 10 days. This is mainly due to the continuously-changing prices of paper, so we cannot guarantee price stability. Nevertheless, we always encourage making enquiries – we will be happy to advise on the best possible technical and cost solutions.
Remember – our price calculations do not commit you to anything.

I am new to the publishing business and I am working on my first book. What kind of assistance can I get from your printing company?

We have a lot of experience of working with novice publishers, start-ups and self-publishers. We will be happy to lead you through the whole production process, advising on the choice of materials and binding, and finding optimum solutions (also price-wise), so that your book meets all your expectations. We will send you paper and print sample books to facilitate your decisions regarding the ultimate form of your publication.

What shall I ask about in my first e-mail?

If your book is nearly finished and you’re getting ready to have it printed, you should specify a few parameters that are essential for the printing company to prepare a quote:
• Book format (book block dimensions in mm)
• Number of pages (without the cover)
• Colour scheme of the text block: black-and-white or colour
• Type of paper for your book (if you aren’t familiar with the types you can describe it and say if you want it bright white/slightly cream white, very smooth/recycled paper, standard thickness etc.)
• Type of binding (hard- or softcover, sewn/glued book block)
• Print run (number of copies).
