We can create small perfect thermo bound books,  books have to be printed with extra edge on the papers head, foot and face to be trimmed off line or 2 up.

When printed digitally, there should be no fuser oil, aquas coating, UV on printing where glue makes the contact with paper.
Minimum size of the covers must be at least 8 ½” wide and 6” on spine (head to foot ).
