Saddle Stitch Binding
Do you have a low page count book printing requirement? If yes, saddle stitch book binding is a good option for you. Saddle stitch book printing method is commonly used for booklets, catalogs, magazines, coloring books, and more. This is an affordable method for producing books with a smaller number of pages. The binding consists of two staples in the fold. The page count must be divisible by 4.
Design Considerations
Here are some common design considerations when you choose saddle stitch binding of books:
- Since saddle stitched books must have a page count divisible by 4 you may choose to have a separate cover which would be excluded from the overall page count. The other option is to include the cover in the page count for a “self-cover” version. Self-covers use the same stock for the interior and the cover. A self-cover is very economical and best for projects that will not have heavy usage.
- You can choose to spread your content or images across adjacent pages. The book opens and closes completely flat, allowing you to get a full view of the content and makes it easy for writing or coloring.
So, if you need to print low page count projects such as booklets, coloring books, magazines, etc. that can be completely open when reading and are lightweight, you can choose the saddle stitch book binding method.
