Amazingly quick & great finish

22 Oct 2025 | Craig H. | Verified Buyer
We had a rush project requiring swift production of 1500 stapled booklets. When completing the transaction it advised a 2 week lead date, which was longer than I had hoped, but I accepted the timings as the best option available to me. Not only was the finish of the project much better than I had expected but the booklets were delivered to me within 1 week of completing on Vista. Really pleased with this work and the efficiency of the service. I have no hesitation in recommending and I will return with other work in the future.

Memorial booklet

21 Oct 2025 | Emily F. | Verified Buyer
It was great to see my design come to life and our nan was very pleased. The only disappointment was that on one of the pages, there appeared to be ink specks that had transferred from the opposite page as if it hadn't dried thoroughly before being put together.

Low Qaulity

20 Oct 2025 | imani t.
The finish was not to standard. The edging was already creasing and material coming away. The print inside was very low quality. Black font that would not be printed properly showing alot of pink. Ordered samples elsewhere and defiently not an issue with the artwork.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — for a successful print, we recommend following these design tips and upload specifications.

Format: Your file needs to be in PDF format — without password protection.

Layout: Your file should include single pages, each arranged in the correct reading order. Make sure your file includes all of your pages — including four cover pages.

Blank Pages: If you want blank inside cover pages, make sure you include blank pages within your PDF file.

Colours: Stapled booklets are printed in CMYK. Images provided in RGB or PANTONE colours will be converted.

Resolution: 300 dpi (dots per inch) is the required resolution for stapled booklets. Lower resolutions may affect the printing quality.

Bleeds: For an accurate print, include a 3 mm bleed on every side of every page. If you encounter file upload issues, double-check your bleed — it may exceed the accepted ±0.25 threshold.

Margins: Keep all text at least 1 cm from the margins. Anything closer may be too close to the edge (or the binding) to easily read.

For detailed information on how to design your custom booklets, download our PDF guide.

Staple binding is a style that uses 2 metal staples to turn individual pieces of paper into a cohesive booklet. Since the staples are placed down the centre of the papers, each piece of paper becomes 4 booklet pages.

Stapled booklets are a popular choice for an assortment of projects or business needs — we particularly recommend them for price lists, product catalogues, event programmes, brochures, pamphlets and magazines. They may also work well for restaurants or cafes in need of longer, more detailed menus.

Your stapled booklets can include 8–84 pages — this includes 4 cover pages (front cover, inside front cover, back cover and inside back cover). For example, an 8-page booklet = 4 cover pages + 4 inside pages. You can increase or decrease a stapled booklet’s page count in increments of 4: 12 pages, 16 pages, 20 pages, etc.

No, you’re not required to — you’ll just need to include blank pages in your print-ready PDF. But if you’d like to utilise all the space and add content to all 4 cover pages, you’re welcome to do that, too.

The cover paper for your stapled booklets will be laminated — they help protect booklets from wear and are a great way to show off your cover design. Our laminated covers are available in matte or glossy. You can select the same cover thickness as your internal pages, or go with a 300 gsm option for sturdier covers.

Sample booklets are not available, but you can order a single booklet. This is a great way to see how your printed booklet looks before you order a larger amount.
