FAQS

What paper type should I choose?

150gsm silk is our thickest option and is a classic paper type for booklets. Go for our uncoated, writable option for workbooks or booklets that need filling in. 130gsm gloss is a high-shine finish that’s ideal for catalogues.

What cover type should I choose?

For your cover, choose from three thicker stocks to protect the inside pages. 250gsm is our standard option. Go for 350gsm for a heavier cover, or writable if you want the cover to be filled in.

What does ‘pp’ mean?

‘Pp’ refers to printed pages.

When will my booklets be delivered?

Booklet orders approved by 6:30pm will be dispatched for delivery within two 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 Wednesday and it’d be delivered on Thursday.

How do I upload my booklet 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.
