If you want to bind a document as a book, then you have a lot of possibilities. Depending on the type of document some binding options may be more appropriate than others.

At the most basic level we distinguish between hardcover bindings and softcover bindings.

While softcover bindings originally were for documents which are often in use and therefore need to be more flexible, today it is also used for many scientific works. Whether you want to print a term paper, a bachelor, master's or doctoral thesis, a softcover binding can open up many creative possibilities. Softcover bindings are especially suited to brochures and booklets of all kinds.

Hardcover bindings are preferable if you want an especially durable and stable book. If you want to present the results of your thesis in an elegant look, then hardcover bindings offer many options to provide you with a beautifully designed final product. Here you can either choose a stylish foil-stamped lettering (in gold, silver or other colours) on a leather or linen cover, or alternatively your individually designed printed cover.

Printing Softcover Books: The Various Binding Options

Paperback: Perfect softcover binding, which we use to create paperbacks, is a particularly inexpensive and good-looking softcover binding, which allows you to make documents with up to 350 pages. At our online copy shop a variety of coloured cardboards are available. You also have the possibility to have an individual design printed on the cover. Your document will be printed and then glued into the cardboard cover. For this we use newest technology and high quality materials, so that the result remains stable and durable even after frequent use. The A4 and A5 paper formats are available, but you can also specify your own dimensions. An online cover designer is available for all formats.
When you bind a dissertation or thesis, create a brochure or want to print a book, then perfect softcover binding is a convenient and high-quality choice.

Saddle-Stitched Brochure: Saddle-stitched brochures are suitable for music books, pamphlets and other documents under 80 pages long. Again, the cover design is entirely up to you and you can choose from many types of paper. The pages of your document will be stapled together with wire staples at the fold line, so the resulting booklet can be completely opened and folded without breaking the spine. You can choose between A4 and A5 paper format.

Plastic Ring Binding: The plastic ring binding or plastic spiral binding is particularly low-priced. The individual print pages are held together by a set of plastic rings; cover and spine can be designed on different cardboards. A4, A5 and A6 formats are available. The plastic spiral can be opened again, so that it is also suitable for the organization of work materials or seminar documents. If you wish to print a thesis or bind a presentation as a book, then the plastic spiral binding is a practical, affordable choice.

Wire Ring Binding: Wire-O spiral binding is ideal if you want to print documents such as transcripts, training documents or lecture notes as a flexible book. The individual pages are held together with a metal wire ring. Different colours, cardboards and formats are available.

Wall Calendars: Our wall calendars can be ordered in formats A4 and A3. Give free reign to your imagination and use your own images and design for a product or gift with a very personal touch.

Strip Binding: Strip Binding is particularly suitable if you want to print long documents such as books, dissertations or business documents. Up to 440 sheets of paper can be bound together with this stable binding system. A comb-like binding strip holds the sheets together while the spine will be reinforced with a fabric tape. Here at our online copy shop numerous cardboards and colours are available. An individual printed cover is also possible.
