1. Printing
Printing refers to what is printed on the notebook – usually on the cover and the inner pages.
a) Cover Printing
-
Digital Printing – good for small quantities and full-color designs.
-
Offset Printing – best for large quantities; high quality and cost-effective.
b) Inner Page Printing
-
Can include blank, lined, grid, or custom-designed pages (like planners, schedules, prompts).
-
Usually printed in 1 or 2 colors (black or grey).
-
Paper type matters:
-
80gsm – standard
-
100gsm – thicker, more premium feel.
-
2. Finishing
Finishing refers to the final touches that make the notebook look professional, durable, or premium.
a) Binding
-
Perfect Binding – glued spine, like a book.
-
Wire-O Binding – metal spiral; lays flat when open.
-
Saddle Stitching – staples in the center; suitable for thin notebooks.
b) Lamination
-
Gloss Lamination – shiny, vibrant finish.
-
Matte Lamination – soft, non-reflective, elegant look.
d) Hot Stamping / Foil Stamping
-
Metallic foil (gold, silver, blue, etc.) pressed onto the surface – gives a shiny, luxury effect.
e) Spot UV
-
Glossy coating applied only to specific areas (e.g., logo) on a matte background – creates contrast.
