Surface Coating Review
Confirm the coating type against the stock, artwork, folding and expected handling.

Questions about Perfect-Bound Books
When can I finalize the spine artwork?
After the text stock, page count and cover construction are confirmed. These determine the spine width and the necessary artwork allowances.
Can the cover and text use different papers?
A separate cover can be specified with a different thickness or finish. The binding method and complete page block are reviewed to confirm compatibility.
How do I supply artwork for multiple editions?
Use clearly named, approved files for each model or language and provide quantities per edition. Mark the cover and text page counts separately.
