What paper type should I choose?

We print orders of service on 120gsm uncoated stock, which helps give them a traditional look.

What cover type should I choose?

You can either keep the cover the same as the inside pages or make it thicker by choosing the 160gsm uncoated option.

What does ‘pp’ mean?

‘Pp’ refers to printed pages.

How will my orders of service be printed?

We print stapled orders of service inside pages on our Truepress. The covers are printed separately on our iGen press or lithographically using our Heidelberg. They’re then stitched together with our StitchLiner.

When will they be delivered?

Booklet orders approved by 6:30pm will be dispatched for delivery within three working days. Delivery takes a further working day. For example, if you approved your order by 6:30pm on a Monday, we’d dispatch your order on Thursday and it’d be delivered on Friday.

How do I upload my order of service design?

You should upload your booklet artwork after placing your order. To do this, complete your order and then email your artwork to our Studio team at artwork@instantprint.co.uk who’ll then set it up for print for you.
