FAQs


Frequently Asked Artwork Questions

What paper type should I choose?

The best paper type depends on how your booklet will be used. Silk is a smooth, professional all-rounder, uncoated is best for writable pages, and gloss gives a high-shine finish that makes colours more vibrant.

Silk paper weights

  • 115gsm Silk: A light paper choice which offers a slight thickness compared to standard home printer paper.
  • 150gsm Silk: Our most popular paper weight with a high-quality finish.
  • 170gsm Silk: Sturdy and versatile with minimal transparency.
  • 250gsm Silk: Thick, durable and completely opaque.
  • 350gsm Silk: Premium card-like thickness with no transparency.

Uncoated paper weights

  • 90gsm Uncoated: Lightweight, budget-friendly option.
  • 120gsm Uncoated: Slightly thicker, great for stationery.
  • 170gsm Uncoated: Strong and versatile with minimal transparency.
  • 250gsm Uncoated: Thick and durable for standout print.
  • 350gsm Uncoated: Premium, card-like feel.

Gloss paper weight

  • 130gsm Gloss: High-shine finish, ideal for vibrant designs and image-heavy prints.
What cover type should I choose?

You can choose a self cover option, or go for a thicker cover with thinner inner pages.

A popular choice is 150gsm silk inner pages with a 350gsm silk cover this allows for you to see the thickness contrast between the two stocks, another popular, more affordable option is the self cover option.

What does ‘pp’ mean?

‘Pp’ refers to printed pages. Four of these pages are used for the cover (front, back and inside covers).

How will my booklets be printed?

Inner pages are printed on our Truepress, while covers are printed lithographically or on our Indigo press.

Booklets are then bound using StitchLiner or Muller machines.

What are my perfect bound booklets printed on?

We use our state-of-the-art Landa Nanopraphic press to print your book pages and then bind them together with your cover stock on either a Horizon or our Kolbus KM600 depending on the quantity ordered.

How do I upload my booklet design?

Upload your artwork using our website uploader after ordering, where you can proof and approve it.

If you have issues, email artwork@instantprint.co.uk.

How do I add foil to my print?

Select 250gsm or 350gsm silk with matt lamination to unlock foil options.

Foil must be at least 6mm from the edge and stay within the safety area.
