Fast, Custom Booklet Printing in NYC

Booklets can come in a wide range of sizes and types, depending on what will best suit each project. Our booklet printing services are versatile, with many paper, binding and finishing options. Booklets are often needed on a short-run basis, as a flexible and attractive print medium. We are happy to work with you on quick turnarounds for both small and large quantities of booklets. We’re proud to offer booklet printing in NYC and fast nationwide shipping.

Thomas Group uses digital printing to produce your booklets on demand. This method allows us to give you high-quality booklets of any size with clear, vibrant colors and images on a variety of paper stocks. Offset printing may be another option if you need large quantities of booklets; talk to our experienced press staff to find out what’s right for your project.

Booklet Printing & Binding Options

You can choose from our range of top quality in-house paper stocks for your booklets and covers. We offer several binding options for booklets, such as traditional saddle-stitching, perfect binding, spiral binding or Wire-O (wire coil) binding.

Saddle stitching is the most common method of binding printed booklets, and means that it’s folded magazine style, with two staples in the center fold of the booklet. This suits most small booklets and is both easy to use and cost-effective. Perfect binding is another popular choice, in which the pages are glued to a spine and wrapped in a cover, the way a paperback book is bound. This can be done with both small and large booklets.

For booklets that require more flexibility in the binding, spiral or wire coil bindings are good choices. Anything that will need to be opened often or referred to regularly, like a cookbook or a manual, does well with these bindings. They offer more durability and page movement, with both metal and plastic options available.

Choosing a wire coil binding also allows the facing pages in your booklet to lay flat precisely together, which is great for full-page spreads when those are part of your design.

Other options in booklet printing include the addition of tabs to categorize your booklet into sections, cover options like die-cutting, embossing and engraving, and matching booklets with envelopes for mailing.

Common Booklet Printing questions

How is Page Count Determined?

Each side of a sheet counts as one page, so a book’s cover alone includes 4 pages: front cover, inside front cover, inside back cover, and back cover. Binding-Specific Page Counts: Saddle Stitch: Requires page counts divisible by 4. Perfect Binding & Wire-O: Requires page counts divisible by 2.

What’s the Maximum or Minimum Page Count?

The binding method you choose will influence the page count range: Saddle Stitching: Works best for projects between 8 and 60 pages, with page counts in multiples of 4. Perfect Binding: Suitable for 32 pages + cover and up, with page counts in multiples of 2. Spiral or Wire-O Binding: This option is flexible and can handle page counts from just a few pages up to 520 on thinner stock, with page counts in multiples of 2.
