Because every book we print is unique, we work closely with you to understand the finish and production values you want to achieve, and recommend the best options and the most cost-effective approach to printing and binding your book. Tell us how we can help...

which printing is best for your book?

Your choice of digital or litho book printing will depend on a variety of factors. Digital printing is a cost-effective option for small print runs or text-heavy books, while litho printing is better for larger print runs or books where images are a key feature.

All our printing is done inhouse, so you can be as closely involved in your book’s production as you want to be. Holywell customers are always welcome to visit our factory in Oxford to see their jobs on press. Unlike online book printers, we work closely with you at every step, so you get a book that looks amazing from cover to cover.

book binding choices

Whatever type of book you want to produce, it's a good idea to start thinking about the book design and format early on. If you’re not sure what format is best for your book, let us explain the options and cost implications of the book size, paper choice, page design, print finishing, and book binding.

There are hundreds of ways to bind your book and book binding is often a balance between aesthetics, practicality and budget. Typically a book’s pages can be saddle stitched, perfect bound with glue, or thread sewn, before being produced as paperback or hardback books. Read our guide to binding to discover the pros and cons of different book binding aproaches.
