Pocket-size booklets provide a convenient way to share useful information.
The compact format of pocket-sized booklets makes them ideal for instructional handbooks, reference manuals, travel guides, short stories, scripture or any other printed information people like to keep handy.
Compact, Practical and Economical
- As you would expect, pocket-size booklets are designed to be small and relatively thin books, so that they fit well into a shirt or hip pocket. A reduced size is not only more economical, it also makes it easier to distribute these booklets by hand or by mail.
- Using full-color ink for the cover and black ink for the pages is a thrifty way to create an attractive booklet. It is cheaper than using full-color throughout, yet still provides the booklet with high visual appeal.
- In addition, pocket-sized booklets frequently have a durable cover which protects them from the wear associated with frequent handling. If the booklet is expected to see very rigorous use, its cover is often further protected with a clear plastic laminate.
- To maintain the appearance of the pages, pocket-sized books are sometimes created with rounded corners. Rounding helps keep the corners of the pages from bending backward when the book is shoved into a pocket or purse.
- In order to keep the cost as low as possible, pocket-sized booklets are commonly bound with the saddle-stitch binding method (two staples in the spine) or the perfect binding method (glued spine). Both methods are popular for binding small booklets.
- Whether you're creating a how-to manual or a promotional giveaway, mini booklet printing is a compact and cost-effective solution.
