A paperback whose pages are glued into a wrap-around card cover, giving a square, printable spine. It is the standard format for novels, manuals, theses, reports and catalogues of 44 to 300 pages. Sewn perfect binding adds strength for books that are opened constantly, and a cover with flaps gives a more editorial finish.
Paperback (perfect bound) books run from 44 to 300 pages online. Below 44 pages the spine is too thin to glue reliably; above 300 pages, ask for a custom quote.
