Book Printing

Our Business Is To Make Yours Shine-Book printing Johannesburg

A hardcover, hardback, or hardbound is a book bound with rigid protective covers (typically of cardboard covered with printed, cloth, heavy paper, buckram, or occasionally leather). They may have flexible, sewn spines which allow the book to lie flat on a surface when opened, or have glued spines. Hardcover books are often printed on acid-free paper, and are much more durable than paperbacks, which have flexible, easily damaged paper covers. Hardcover books are also marginally more costly to manufacture and are usually much more expensive. Hardcovers frequently come with artistic dust jackets, but a “jacketless” alternative is becoming increasingly popular: these “paper-over-board” or “jacketless hardcover” bindings forgo the dust jacket in favour of printing the cover design directly onto the board binding The hard cover format is the best format for long lasting and good looking books. At Boldmedia we produce coffee table books, map and guide books, leisure books and special interest books, in hard cover binding configuration with a variety of specialised cover finishes. Boldmedia has a number of finishing options, we can satisfy the most complex requests: round or square backs, half or quarter binding, printed paper cases or jackets; with or without ribbons, head and tail bands, or with sprayed edges.

It is less expensive than hardcover binding methods.
This method will accommodate a high page count.
It can be used for very short production runs…for example, 150 books.
Books can be made with a heavier weight cover for durability and longevity.

This method forms a flat spinal edge which can be printed upon.
The finished shape allows books to stack well for storage and display.
Perfect binding provides a crisp, professional appearance.
