1. will it have a uv coat fininshing.
2. does the layout required 3mm bleed?
3. 40 pages? does it mean 20pp?
This is a good forum for feedback and technical questions. It would help us to compile a list of Q&A and. address concerns and ideas to improve our offerings.
1. No U.V., as the treatment emit an odour thats quite unbearable for some. The chemical reaction released ozone into the atmosphere (not environment friendly). Anyway, a coffee table book must look and feel like one. No vanishes, no lamination, just offset ink print on paper. (we can do it at as an additional cost if you insist
)
2. We have standardised the layout template for you to design accordingly to ensure page accuracy. We maximize the paper usage and minimise wastages.
For example:
Paper size 12.5 X 18 (max)
Print size 12.125 X 17.75 (max)
Trim size - 12 X 17.5
On trimmed-off, the images can full bleed to the edge, very marginal bleed allowance of 1mm is needed. Confidence and precision in technology is important too.
3. In technical or short term, pp is paginated pages. 40 pages as in 40 printed pages, total 20 sheets of paper printed on both-sides.
The sizes are final, standard 40 pages for content.
1) Grand - 12.25" X 17.75" (landscape or portrait)
2) Classic - 8.5" X 12.25" ( " )
3) Pocket - 4.25" X 6.125" ( " )
4) Square 12.25 X 12.25
5) - 8.75 X 8.75
6) - 5.75 X 5.75
From 1 design submission, we can produce a whole set of 3 sizes.:thumbsup: Simply by designing it on the biggest size and we will scale down to the smaller size and smallest. Saved on the need to design on different size and format.
Keep your questions coming; well be able to fine-tune our work.
