Perfect-bound books are the, well, perfect package for higher-page count books, manuals, and reports. Think of these bookish baddies as the stereotypical book. Just like the iconic paperback we all know and love, perfect binding involves glueing or threading pages together to create the spine, then applying adhesive to the paper to create a durable bond.
Perfect-bound book printing, the YellowDog way:

Nope! We offer spiral/wire-o, saddle stitch, and perfect binding options. Your account manager can help you figure out the best binding for your unique project.
Saddle stitch binding is a method where folded sheets are gathered together (one inside the other) and stapled through the fold line. Perfect binding is the method of binding when pages are glued together at the spine.
It’s like we always say, go big or go home. To a point. We can bind books up to ## pages, depending on the thickness of your paper stock.
Send your book artwork as one-up PDF files, which means having one page of your book on each PDF page instead of as spreads.
We do not have a minimum quantity of books you must order, but your order may be subject to a minimum order fee.
When printing a perfect-bound book, we’ve got to account for both printing (5-7 business days) and binding. Allow at least 10 business days for perfect binding, since the glue needs to set and cure.
In a hurry? Ask us about spiral or wire-o binding, which we can move along more quickly.
