Cover Paper
Default is 300gsm Coated Silk/Satin. Change if a different stock is required.
⚠️ Cover stock exceeds recommended 250gsm for saddle stitch. Heavy cover stocks can be difficult to fold and staple cleanly — maximum recommended is 250gsm. Please contact us before ordering.
⚠️ Uncoated cover stock — cracking risk. The binding process involves creasing and folding the cover. Uncoated paper is prone to cracking along the fold/spine, which can split and damage the cover artwork. Uncoated covers should be laminated (gloss or matte) before binding. Contact us if unsure.
