When ordering a Company Profile through a printing service website, you will typically need to provide specific technical requirements to ensure a professional finish. Here are the standard details required:
1. Size & Orientation
- A4 (210mm x 297mm): The most common and economical industry standard.
- A5 (148mm x 210mm): A compact, “booklet” style that is easier to carry.
- Orientation: Most choose Portrait, but Landscape is popular for image-heavy creative profiles.
2. Materials (Paper Weight)
- Cover Material:
- Art Card (210gsm / 260gsm / 310gsm): Provides a rigid, high-quality feel.
- Inner Pages:
- Art Paper (108gsm / 128gsm / 157gsm)
- Simili Paper (80gsm / 100gsm / 120gsm)
3. Binding Methods
The binding type dictates the maximum page count and how the book opens.
- Saddle Stitching: Stapled in the spine. Best for thinner profiles (8–32 pages).
- Perfect Binding: Glued spine (like a paperback book). Ideal for thicker, premium profiles (40+ pages).
- Wire-O Binding: Metal loop spine. Allows the profile to lay completely flat, great for technical manuals or portfolios.
- Booklet Plastic Comb Binding
4. Finishing & Special Effects
- Lamination: Matte (non-reflective, sophisticated) or Gloss (shiny, high-contrast).
