Printing 50 or more?

That is where our pricing gets sharpest and where the custom options open up. Orders of 50+ books get our best per-book price, a custom quote turned around by a real person, the full range of custom options, and a free shareable flipbook of your book.

Printing fewer than 50 is still completely fine - there is no minimum and no extra charge to re-order later.

Questions

Book printing FAQ

How much does it cost to print a book?

The price depends on four things: page count, trim size, hard or soft cover, and how many copies you print. The per-book price drops as the quantity goes up, and 50 or more books gets our best pricing.

For 1 to 49 books, use the price card at the top of this page or our instant pricing. For 50 or more, request a custom quote and a real person will send it, normally within 1 business day.

How many copies should I print?

Fifty or more is where our pricing and service are at their best. Orders of 50+ books get our lowest per-book price, a custom quote from a real person, a free shareable flipbook, and the full range of custom options - extra paper types, laminates, endsheets and proofs.

That said, there is no minimum. We will print a single copy, and there is no extra charge if you come back later and re-order more.

What book sizes can you print?

Our standard sizes are 8.5x11 and 8x10 portrait, 11x8.5 landscape, 5.5x8.5 and 6x9 portrait, 9x6 landscape, and 8.5x8.5 and 12x12 square. On orders of 50 or more books we also print 9x12, 12x9 and custom sizes up to 12x12. See all book sizes.

Should I choose hard cover or soft cover?

Hard cover is sturdier and feels like a gift or library book. Soft cover costs less per copy and is lighter to ship. You can mix both bindings in a single order, and dust jackets are available. Compare hard vs soft cover pricing.

How long does book printing take?

Printing runs 7 to 10 business days once your files are approved, plus shipping time. If you have a hard date, tell us when you request pricing and we will confirm it before you commit.

What files do you need to print my book?

Either build the book in our FREE Book Design Pro Software and send it straight from there, or send a print-ready PDF from InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Word or similar. Pages with images that run to the edge need bleed - see full bleed page layout.

Do you check my files before printing?

Yes. We review every file sent to us. A real person checks for print problems before anything goes on press, and contacts you if something looks off. For 50+ books, you get a Proof for your approval, before we send to print.

Where do you ship, and can you send books to Amazon?

We ship within the United States and Canada. Books can go directly to you, or we can ship part of the run on to Amazon or any other distributor if you plan to sell. See shipping.

Let's find out what your book costs.

No account, no software install, no obligation. Price 1-49 books at the top of this page - and if you are printing 50 or more, that is where our best pricing and our full range of custom options kick in.
