Description
Elevate your storytelling with our Custom Saddle-Stitched Digital Books. Featuring a professional “Plus Cover” (a heavier cardstock for the exterior), these booklets offer a substantial, high-end feel that standard booklets lack. As a premier boutique book printer in Los Angeles, Indie Printing specializes in short-run digital production for zines, lookbooks, and corporate reports. Our saddle-stitch binding provides a clean, secure finish that allows your pages to lay relatively flat, making it the perfect choice for high-impact visual presentations and artist portfolios that demand both durability and style.
The cover is the first thing your audience touches. A "Plus Cover" book offers:
-
Tactile Quality: By using a 10pt or 12pt cardstock for the cover while keeping interior pages lighter, the book feels like a high-end publication.
-
Durability: The thicker cover protects the interior pages from wear and tear, ensuring your catalog or zine lasts longer in the hands of readers.
-
Aesthetic Contrast: You can choose a different finish for the cover (like a Matte or Gloss lamination) to make your branding truly stand out from the interior content.
