To make printing and printing of books easier for you, we have collected answers to the most popular questions, as well as various professional recommendations:

• usually, the printing and printing of a book takes several months, because you have to schedule the delivery of paper and cover material, as well as take a queue for printing
• before starting to publish the book, calculate the budget that you can allocate for this purpose
• think about what the purpose and content of the book will be, and how you plan to sell this book further, what channels you will use – bookstores, shops, the Internet, social networks, etc.

Also consider the desired technical nuances:

• planned book size, vertical or horizontal and type of binding (hard or soft)
• inner pages black and white or colored. If the book is going to be b&w with some color pictures, we recommend placing them one after the other
• cover material and type. Will the covers be printed or made of leather or artificial leather material
• whether you want to print front and back pages or leave them white. Maybe you will use some colored design paper
• or want a bookmark (maybe two), an extra pocket or some other element
