Interior pages are printed digitally in black and white or color. Our most popular paper is our 60# white opaque stock.

We offer three styles of covers for hardcover books:
Printed Hardcover — This cover, printed on 100# white paper stock, is first treated with either gloss or matte lamination. Covers are then wrapped and glued around the coverboards that comprise the cover.
— We offer 11 colors of cloth and 5 colors of imitation leather, shown below. Each cloth cover includes foil stamping of the front cover and spine in either gold, silver or matte black. If you are looking for a foil or cloth color, Contact Us to discuss custom options!
Cloth Hardcover with Printed Dustjacket — This is the same as the cloth hardcover with foil stamping with the addition of a full-color dustjacket. Dustjackets are printed on 100# white paper stock and then laminted with either gloss or soft-touch matte.
Our standard hardcover books include the following features and more! Check out the Quote Generator for all of our standard options or Contact Us to discuss more custom options.
The interior pages are adhesive (PUR) bound, reinforced and attached to the hardcover board. Hardcover books also include white endsheets adhered to the front and back of the book. If you are looking for colored endsheets, sewn binding, or custom foil stamp colors, Contact Us to discuss custom options.
Each book is unique and deserves a unique die for the cloth or imitation leather covers. Every cover will have a custom copper die that will be made for stamping of both the front cover and spine. You may follow the Hardcover Stamping instructions and submit a PDF die mockup or we can create one for you using your title pages. Dies can be stamped in our standard gold, silver, or white foil. If you are looking for a custom foil color or have questions about your die, Contact Us about your book.
We offer 11 standard colors (see below). Colors below are approximate and may appear different on your final books. The vellum fabrics are solid, while the linens have a subtle linen texture.
