Why Choose Perfect Bound: If you are looking for a highly professional look and feel to your books/booklets and you want a cost-effective option, then perfect bound is a great choice. It is a great, affordable choice for short runs and on-demand printing You get clean cuts for the perfect edges on all three sides You can choose to have your cover clear-coated to make it even more durable You can have the title of your book or booklet printed along the spine You can easily stack and store them on a shelf Perfect binding books have a number of great advantages over other binding methods including: It is a popular choice for softcover books and thicker magazines and booklets. This booklet printing and binding process gives you a crisp, clean, and extremely professional-looking finished product. Once all of the pages are bound together, more adhesive is applied to the spine and then the cover is wrapped around them. Perfect bound refers to the process of grouping pages of booklets or books together and binding them with a thermal adhesive. For example, you might be preparing handouts for a class that you are teaching and you want to hand each page out separately at different times to your students. Non-collate printing is useful for times when you do not want your projects in numerical order. If you choose to not have your document collated, then the printer would print out 4 copies of page one, followed by 4 copies of page two and so on until you have all 7 pages copied. The binding can be as simple as a single staple but for longer and more professional results, you can choose from a variety of binding methods. Usually, collated print jobs are also bound to keep the pages together. This type of printing is helpful when you want to have your projects printed out as a complete set. It would then repeat this process three more times until you have 4 complete sets of pages that are in numerical order. The printer would print one copy of page 1 then one copy of page 2 and so on until all seven of your first set are done.
If you choose to have it collated, then the following would happen. You have a 7-page document, and you want 4 copies made of that document. Here is an example to help illustrate the difference between collate printing and non-collate printing.
Difference Between Collate and Non-Collate Printing Some form of collating will be necessary for multiple page documents but if collating should be done while printing or in the inserting phase of the project depends on the size, type of information, and design of the piece.Collate Printing 1. It is also best practice to add a sort number onto each page so an audit can be conducted to confirm that the pages have been collated correctly and are in the correct order. Typically when a piece has multiple pages with generic information, the piece is inserted one after the other, as the sequence does not matter, but when there is personalized information it is better to nest the pages to ensure that personal information is consistent. A printer can either print the pieces in the correct order or print each version separately and collate the pieces when inserting. In these cases the piece can either be inserted one after the other or can be nested behind each other. When a piece needs to be inserted into a regular #10 envelope collating will need to be done after the piece is folded when the pieces are being inserted. Once the files are printed they can be directly inserted into 9x12 envelopes stapled or binded and will remain in the correct order and grouping. We can also setup your variable data merge so that the file is in the correct format to be collated when printing.Ĭollating during the printing process works well for packets that will be stapled, binded, or inserted into a 9”x12” envelope. At Action Mail we can collate when printing (as long as the file has a FreeForm, PPML, Creo VPS, Xerorx VIPP, PDF/VT imposition or needs to be collated after a set number of pages) and can also collate after printing when inserting or assembling the piece. Pages can be collated based on a set number of pages (after every nth page) or after each record (when printing variable data). Collating is important when sending multiple page documents like open enrollment information, financial documents, statements, etc that have sensitive and personalized information on each page.
