Printing
Printing on good quality 100g paper: B/W throughout: 10p per side Colour & B/W mix: 21p per side Front cover foiling: £15 per bind. Documents are usually a mix of B/W and colour so we have calculated a special reduced rate of 21p to accommodate this. These prices are for students only and already include student discount. The printing prices are only for when we print the entire document. If only parts of the document require printing or any customer collation is required different timescales and printing prices will apply.

Cover & Spine Format
We can bind with black or blue Buckram cloth to your university's specification, you'll just need to let us know whether you'd like soft or hard covers and the information for the spine e.g.
PhD 2025 SMITH, A.Foiling can be gold or silver. If you would also like your front cover foiled you will need to supply us a single page PDF of the front cover. The PDF must be B/W and contain only text and small simple line images only. Anything else may not print properly.
Printing & Binding
All of our theses are bound using extra strong glue along the spine. You can either bring us the document ready to bind or we can print it here on good quality 100gsm paper. We may not accept pre-printed documents which we decide are too curly to be bound. We can bind between approximately 25 and 435 sheets of 100g (depending on the paper) in one volume. A blank sheet is inserted at the front and back as standard. Larger theses are split into two volumes (please check with your college or university if multiple volumes are accepted). We only bind A4 sheets so all A3 sheets will be scaled down to A4. We only bind theses in portrait (long edge) so all landscape pages are automatically rotated to portrait. Both soft and hard bound thesis are glue bound. We do not check the layout, content or margins of your document so you must ensure what you send us is correct to your university's specification.
