Which stock should I choose?
The kind of paper or material you choose for your print will affect how your colors look. For example, uncoated paper creates a softer, more muted finish and is great for writing on, while coated papers and materials are best for bright, vibrant colors.
- Text stock is lighter and more flexible - think Brochures, Flyers, or the inside pages of a book.
- Cover stock is thicker and sturdier - perfect for Postcards, Business Cards, or book covers.
- Pounds (lbs) measure paper weight - the higher the number, the heavier the stock. An 80lb text sheet is thinner than an 80lb cover sheet, as they’re measured on different scales.
- Points (pt) measure thickness. One point = one-thousandth of an inch. For example, 10pt cover stock is 0.010" thick.
- An 80lb text stock is roughly 4pt, and an 80lb cover stock is roughly 10pt, however this can differ per paper type.
- While standard paper stocks are typically measured in pounds (lbs) or points (pt), some large format and specialty materials use different measurements depending on the product.
- oz (Ounces) are commonly used for banners, fabrics, and flexible signage materials. A higher ounce number typically means a heavier, more durable material. For example, a 9oz Banner is lighter and more flexible than an 15oz Banner.
- mm (Millimeters) & inches measure material thickness and are often used for rigid signs and large format boards, such as Foam Board or Corrugated Plastic. Thicker boards are generally more rigid and durable, while thinner options are lighter and easier to display or transport.
Can I get free shipping on my order?
Yes - free shipping is available on selected orders. Depending on the shipping zip code, orders may qualify if the total weight is under 10 lb. If your order qualifies, you’ll see the free shipping option at checkout.
How many pages can I print in a Saddle Stitch Yearbook?
You can print up to 48 pages when you select this binding type. This page count includes your front and back covers, so you'll have plenty of space for your content while keeping your booklet easy to handle and read.
What exactly is Saddle Stitch Binding?
Saddle Stitch binding is a popular booklet binding method where folded sheets are stapled together along the spine fold. You might also hear these called Stapled Booklets because of the stapled binding technique. It's perfect for catalogs, programs, multipage brochures, and other multi-page materials that need a clean, professional look.
Is lamination available for Saddle Stitch Yearbook covers?
Absolutely. We highly recommend adding a Matte or Gloss lamination to your outer cover. This not only enhances the visual depth of your design but also adds essential durability to the spine where the staples are inserted
