Explore our adaptable sizing and flexible stock varieties
Picking the right physical dimensions, paper type, and binding layout completely alters how your target audience engages with your document. Here’s how to select the ideal specifications and finishes for various wire-bound scenarios.
Booklet sizing and format selections
We offer an extensive selection of standard formats to suit any specialised arrangement, spanning A6 up to a large A3 format, international Letter and Half Letter layouts, and modern 148 mm or 210 mm square dimensions.
- A4 wire bound formats (portrait and landscape): The traditional A4 size is the industry standard for comprehensive training manuals, corporate reports, and presentation documents that demand crystal-clear visibility for fine text and complex graphics.
- A5 booklets: Serving as a compact and highly portable choice, A5 booklets are ideal for pocket guidebooks, low-volume educational tools, and on-the-go instruction manuals where space is at a premium.
- Square layouts and A6 pocket formats: Providing a highly stylised, contemporary geometric alternative, square dimensions (148 mm or 210 mm) and A6 booklet sizes are incredibly popular for creative design portfolios, custom notebooks, pocket diaries, and eye-catching event merchandise.
Page capacity and orientation options
Unlike stapled documents, wire binding can handle substantial page counts and offers the flexibility of single or double-sided printing. Portrait layouts can be bound on the left long edge or top short edge, while landscape layouts can be bound on the left short edge or top long edge.
- High-volume document limits: You can compile up to 191 single-sided or 382 double-sided pages using matt 90 gsm, silk 130 gsm, or gloss 130 gsm stocks. This massive capacity makes it perfect for thick annual financial statements, reference indices, and extensive legal bundles. Selecting thicker paper stocks will naturally reduce your maximum page capacity.
- Top-edge binding flip charts: Choosing a top-edge bind creates a calendar-style layout. This is exceptionally useful for corporate presentations, recipe books, or desktop instructional guides that need to open completely flat (360 degrees) back-to-back without placing stress on the spine.
Paper weights, textures, and colours
The texture, finish, and weight of your paper directly influence page durability and writing usability. You can fully customise your internal leaves using low-glare matt finishes (90, 100, 120, 160, and 200 gsm) or polished silk and gloss options (130, 150, 170, and 200 gsm), available in white, cream, pink, deep red, or pastel shades of blue, green, and yellow.
- Internal leaves (120 gsm uncoated text): We highly recommend heavy uncoated options like our 120 gsm text for the interior of training manuals or workbooks. The natural texture provides the perfect surface for writing easily with pens or highlighters while minimising the risk of ink bleeding through or ghosting.
- Coated silk and gloss stocks (130 gsm to 200 gsm): Choose these sleek finishes for marketing assets, product lookbooks, and creative portfolios where crisp photography, vibrant colours, and a high-end corporate finish are required.
Cover protection and professional styling
Protect your booklet from daily wear by customising the exterior with a 300 gsm card cover (available plain or single-sided printed) enhanced with a choice of matt, gloss, or soft-touch lamination, complemented by clear or opaque acetate outer shields.
- Acetate protective covers: Adding a clear acetate front cover and a thick frosted or coloured plastic back cover gives your document extra protection against liquids, dirt, and tears. This is an essential upgrade for high-use workshop manuals, cookbooks, or reference guides.
- Lamination choices: Opt for a gloss laminate to make bold cover graphics pop, a matt laminate for an elegant, glare-free aesthetic, or a soft-touch laminate to provide high-end marketing booklets with a premium, velvety feel.
