Softcovers, tradepapers, paperbacks, perfect bound, digests and graphic novels all amount to the same thing in the printing world – they’re typically books that are 64 pages or larger and have a card stock cover instead of a hardback. This is one of the most popular formats and is quickly gaining in popularity among fans for a great way to gain reading copies of their favorite works. We can handle any size and any format, including landscape editions and manga digests. Dustcover options and slipcases are also available.

A very popular option among our clients is to simultaneously create a hardcover edition of their tradepaper. This lowers the overall cost and is a very effective use of the printer, as the TEXT (aka interiors) is the same for both versions. See our SPECIAL OFFERS page for more information.
