We furnish mini catalog printing that perfectly aligns with the market strategies of your brand.

Spiral-bound catalogs consist of a plastic spiral coil that helps to keep pages intact. It not only provides durability but also gives an enchanting appearance to wholesale catalog printing.
Saddle stitching offers professionalism with saddles placed at the spine of the catalog to align all the pages. This type of catalog is suitable for 60 to 70 pages.
A strong adhesive is used to hold the papers together at the spine in a perfectly bound catalog. Perfect bound is an affordable choice and its flat spine makes it convenient for printing.
Just like its name suggests, staples are used to bind the catalog. This type gives a handy approach to cataloging and makes it a perfect fit for evergreen content.
In the PUR-bound catalog, an extremely strong adhesive is used to bind papers together. A square spine is formed because this binding can hold up to 700 pages and you can print the spine as well to display your logo.
Printing plays a key role in the inclusive presentation of catalogs. Color catalog printing is crucial because the black-and-white theme seems outdated. To offer quality printing we use efficient color systems and inks that are stable and long-lasting. Our printings offer detailed graphics so after reading the sparkling catalog your business becomes the go-to choice for customers. Some state-of-the-art printing methods you can utilize are as follows:
Often known as lithography, the offset is suitable for large-run custom catalog printing. Typically the CMYK color system is used in offset printing to build a professional and precise outcome. This printing method offers flexibility in material choice so you can choose the paper that suits you best.
Digital printing is an upgraded mechanism that provides maximum customization of mini catalog printing. It has various subtypes such as UV printing, laser printing, inkjet printing, and dye sublimation printing each holding unique characteristics.
Nicknamed flexo, flexography printing provides high-quality prints at minimal rates as compared to other printing. Our catalog printing services give various design options and our printed images remain unfaded and whole during shipping and handling.
A mesh pencil (screen) is used to transfer inks on the paper material into screen material. Screen printing is a familiar tool in catalog printing companies because it can make bold as well as simple designs for catalogs.
Gravure Printing
A cylinder is used to engrave graphics in gravure printing. The engraved cylinder is coated with ink and then with a concise process ink is transferred from cylinder to material. This method gives high-speed production and offers a wide range of substrates for catalog and folder printing.

Catalog/page size: The size of the product page depends upon the size of your catalog, its design, and its format. The most common sizes that we use for catalog printing are:
Blees is an area that extends beyond the document’s trim edge. Thai area ensures that no unprinted edges remain after the catalog is trimmed. ⅛ inches should left on all four sides of the pages. The bleed area is important as without it unwanted white borders may appear on the paper in case of any misalignment and will show in the final product.
Margins are essential to make sure that no important design elements such as the logo, text, or important images are cut off. Usually, a common margin is 0.5 inches but this can vary based on the overall layout of the page.
It is the area in which you have to place all the critical content such as the logo and texts. This is at least 0.5 inches from the edges of the page to the margin of the design. This is necessary because if the page is slightly trimmed off the important content remains intact.
CMYK Color Mode: For printed designs, the use of CMYK is necessary as this is the standard mode and it makes it possible to give full-color coverage so that you get the same designs as you see on your digital screens. The digital screens use colors that are in RGB mode, so if you convert RGB into CMYK then the chances of color variation persist, that is why it is better to start from the right mode such as with CMYK.
Grayscale Mode: If you need your artwork in black and grey color then switch your design software to greyscale mode. This is essential because it converts all the images to shades of grey and amke it easy for you to ensure that the output is in true monochrome.
Image quality is essential for a good output. We prefer images of 300 dpi (dots per inch) for high-quality printing. This results in sharp and clear images. If you are sending images with low dpi such as 72 dpi then your resulting print will look pixelated and blurry which will significantly reduce the professional quality of your catalog. We prefer the following formats for images:
Legibility: Choose formats that are easy to read especially if you are selecting fonts for smaller texts such as product descriptions, price tags, or contact info. Serif fonts such as Times New Roman, Garamond, etc. are a good option for the body. On the other hand, Sans-serif fonts like Arial, Helvetica, etc are a good option for headings.
Font Size: Choose texts that are easy to read and do not overly complicate the design. For the body, you can choose a size of 10 to 12 pt while the font size of the heading can vary based on your design.
Limiting Font Choices: Stick to only 2 to 3 fonts while giving the design a cohesive and professional look. Multiple fonts can make your design look cluttered and unorganized.
Embedding Fonts: If you need a custom font then make sure that you are embedding it in PDF when saving. This will make sure that your font is displaying correctly on the system.
PDF (Portable Document Format): The best file format printing is PDF because it preserves the fonts, images, and layouts ensuring consistency when you open the file on different devices.
Include Bleed: When you are exporting your file format into PDF, make sure that you are including the bleed area in the file setting. In some of the software you can find tools that will allow you to check-box “include bleed” or “use document bleed settings.”
Double-check your final file to see if any errors are present or not such as typos, spelling errors, grammatical mistakes, spacing, images, etc. You must also have to check the layout consistency.
