Catalogs are multi-page bound documents. They can range from glossy product sales tools to corporate training aides. Catalogs often provide comprehensive information about the range of products or services offered by the publisher. Catalogs that are intended to be kept for longer periods of time often have covers printed on thicker stock for durability.
Our Catalogs are bound with saddle stitching. For other binding options, please submit a custom estimate request by clicking "Custom Estimate" at the top of the page.
AQ 2 Sides
AQ is short for Aqueous Coating. This is a semi-gloss, environmentally friendly, water-based coating applied over the entire front and back of the printed piece. It provides additional gloss and protection, and it can be written on with a ballpoint pen.
Satin AQ 2 Sides
AQ is short for Aqueous Coating. This is a matte finish, environmentally friendly, water-based coating applied over the entire printed piece. It reduces the gloss of the printing and it can be written on with a ballpoint pen.
Our Catalogs w/ Presentation Folder Cover are offered with one or two 4" pockets. Also with and without standard business card slits. Your file must be supplied with die line indicating which of these options you prefer. The size indicated on the website refers to the size of the Presentation Folder and inside pages, for example the 9 x 12 size will be a 9 x 12 Presentation Folder and 9 x 12 inside pages. If you prefer a smaller size for the inside pages, the size may be no smaller than one inch in height and one inch in width from the size of Presentation Folder. Catalogs w/ Presentation Folder that require a smaller size for the inside pages will always be stitched flush to the bottom. If you require the smaller size inside pages to be stitch in the center, enter a custom estimate as these must be hand stitched.
