Below are reminders when choosing booklet specs:

The standard sizes for booklets are 5.5” x 11” and 8.5” x 11”. Remember that the size contributes to the appeal and functionality of your booklets. Consider the industry you’re in when choosing the booklet size. For businesses that need to showcase products through images such as clothing stores or car shops, it’s more advisable to use a large booklet size. You can also opt for the 12” x 12” size. However, not all printing companies offer this. You can go to UPrinting.com for a variety of booklet sizes available.

Since booklets are multi-pagers, the process of uploading your file may be confusing. Choose a printing company that provides customer support and file review to save you the hassle. If you want to have your design proofed for free, choose UPrinting.

The common paper options for the pages are matte and gloss. These differ in texture and appearance but both are visually appealing. Gloss is recommended for booklets that have many images because the shine brings out the quality of the photos.

Black and white booklets are cheaper than full-color booklets. Printing your booklets in black and white is more economical especially when ordering in bulk. But if you want your booklets to have that extra oomph, we recommended you go for colored booklets.

Choosing the right booklet printing company can be a bit tricky because of the many options available. Go for the one that offers high-quality printing to get your money’s worth.
