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:
The binding method you choose will influence the page count range:
Perfect bound books are not designed to lay flat when opened. Forcing them to do so can damage the spine and weaken the glue holding the pages together. To maintain the book’s quality and durability, avoid pressing it down.
Pricing reflects the cost of one edition only per book. If you need additional editions or multiple covers, this requires a custom quote.
The listed pricing is for portrait orientation soft cover books only. If you’re interested in hardcover or landscape formats, please request a custom quote.
Coated paper has a smooth finish that visually sharpens images and enhances color. The coating can be glossy or semi-gloss, depending on the desired effect, but both options contribute to a polished, professional look.
Uncoated paper has a natural, porous surface. It’s perfect for projects where readability and a tactile feel are priorities. It’s also a practical option for items that need to be written on, like letterheads or notepads.
If your project includes color anywhere – even a single image or logo – it’s a 4-color (4C) job. Our standard pricing is designed for 4C printing, providing vibrant, professional results fast.
Single-color (one-ink) printing is available by custom quote and may offer some cost savings, but 4C remains the most common option. If you’re unsure, we are happy to talk with you to determine the best options for your unique printing needs.
Once PDF proofs are approved, production can take approximately 3 days for saddle stitched publications and roughly 3-5 days for perfect bound, plus shipping. Shipping times vary from next-day delivery to a few days, depending on your location relative to our NYC print house.

Whether you need a substantial print run of marketing materials for the bustling logistics sector or extensive training manuals for Jacksonville’s growing financial services industry, Thomas Group Printing delivers quality offset printing solutions.
Our services are characterized by precision, professionalism, and include free delivery – meaning your printing needs are met with both efficiency and excellence.
Offset printing is particularly cost-effective for large volumes due to the economies of scale it offers. The initial setup costs for creating printing plates are offset by the reduced cost per piece as the quantity increases.
This makes it an ideal choice for projects where thousands of prints are needed, significantly reducing costs compared to digital printing, which costs the same per print regardless of quantity.
Our press team is on hand to help you decide whether offset or digital printing best suits your project’s needs.
Offset printing, or lithography, begins by transferring your image directly onto printing plates via a direct-to-plate or computer-to-plate system.
This modern method skips the older process of using film negatives. We typically use CMYK color separation for offset printing, so it’s best to provide your image files in CMYK format.
The image is then transferred from the plates to a flexible rubber sheet on the press, which rolls the ink onto the paper to create crisp, high-quality images.
This process is not only efficient for high volumes but also offers precision and flexibility that rival digital printing.
Offset printing is suitable for any high-volume print job, including reports, catalogs, magazines, posters, and books. It’s particularly advantageous for orders exceeding 2,500 pieces.
We frequently utilize offset printing for producing annual reports, brochures, booklets, and other significant projects.
This printing method allows for large sheet sizes, offering flexibility in product size and ensuring that larger items can be printed without limitations.
We also offer a range of finishing options post-printing, such as saddle-stitching, folding, and binding to meet your specific needs.
