Video transcript

1. 0:00Planning a saddle-stitched booklet? Four decisions shape the result.
2. 0:05Each folded sheet makes four pages, cover included, so totals run eight, twelve, sixteen. Short on content? Add a contact or notes page to round it out.
3. 0:16Choose the finished size, then match paper to the task: gloss for vivid photos, matte or uncoated for text. A heavier cover adds structure, and bulk.
4. 0:27Build the PDF at trim size with bleed, so backgrounds reach the edge. Keep logos and text in the safe area, clear of the fold.
5. 0:38Check thickness: a fat stack strains the stitch and pushes inner pages out. Too thick? Ask about perfect binding. Then approve the proof before production starts.
6. 0:50Here's a look inside our factory. Printed sheets feed into the folder, travel out folded on the belts, and become booklets like these.
7. 1:02Ready to quote? Send page count, size, quantity and paper.
8. 1:07Add your PDF and in-hand date for a spec review.
