It was my first time printing books with Imprint, and I had a really good experience. The books came out just as I expected, and they were packed really carefully for delivery. Happy with the service and the quality!
Brilliant company, which I highly recommend for any printing task, large or small.
I would give 10 stars if I could. This was my first foray into preparing a book myself for self publishing. In the past we have paid a designer a vast amount which wasn’t a cost effective option for this project. Riley at Imprint was endlessly helpful and patient and we have ended up with a very professional product at an incredibly reasonable price. What is even more outstanding is that I approved the final PDF on Wednesday and received the books on Friday!
I'm delighted with the whole printing experience with ImprintDigital. In a book with many colour photos and detailed technical illustrations, the printing quality is absolutely superb, with bright, true colours, sharp details and a high-quality glossy texture. The ordering process was simple and email responses were fast, friendly and professional..A delivery issue caused by another company was handled swiftly and elegantly. I highly recommend ImprintDigital.

Uncoated white paper is a useful starting point. Compare opacity, surface and the feel of a finished page using our sample pack. Fine linework, screentones and large black areas should be checked in a proof.
Confirm your intended reading direction with us before finalising the files. The binding edge, page sequence and front/spine/back cover arrangement need to agree. Reading direction is not selected by the calculator; send us the details for a file and production check.
Yes. Set the number of mono and colour pages in the calculator. If your colour artwork can sit together, you can also compare a colour plate section. Confirm the page arrangement before submitting final files.
A short issue may suit a saddle-stitched booklet rather than a perfect-bound book. The calculator follows the physical rules for the selected binding. See booklet printing or ask us to check the format.
