Question
What is the minimum page count for saddle stitch booklets?
Answer
Saddle stitch booklets have a minimum of 8 pages. Because sheets are folded and stapled at the spine, pages are added in groups, and 8 is the smallest count that binds properly.
- Minimum: 8 pages.
- Pages increase in multiples of 4 from there.
- Blank pages can be included to reach the required count.
- The cover counts toward the total pages.
If your content falls just short of 8 pages, add blank or filler pages so the file meets the minimum before you submit it.
