Home Services Company Profile Contact ISO Certification Technical Tips Publications Cover Layout Keep the grain direction parallel to the spine. On thin books, avoid using cover stock thicker than 10pts. Ink, Varnish and all other coatings should not be in the spine or hinge areas inside the cover. Allow at least 3/16" more than the untrimmed signature size at the foot for a "glue trap". Text Layout 1/8" grind-off margin is standard. If Bindagraphics is folding the project, call for imposition advice. Head, foot, and face trims should be uniform and at least 1/8" but no more than 1/2". Avoid two-pagers as the first or last signature. If this situation is unavoidable, the thicker the stock the better. Pack signatures high folio up on skids. Brick pack and do not crisscross in a lift. Light signatures (4,6, or 8 pagers) should be imposed to be adjacent to heavier signatures.
