Question
How long does bookbinding printing take?
Answer
Turnaround depends on the binding style and the quantity, since some methods take longer to finish and cure than others. The estimates below are typical starting points, and rush options are available when a deadline is tight.
| Binding style | Typical turnaround |
|---|---|
| Saddle-stitched booklets | 3 to 5 business days |
| Perfect-bound and case-bound books | 5 to 7 business days |
- Larger quantities can add time, so build in a buffer for big runs.
- Glued bindings need curing time, which is why perfect-bound projects run a little longer.
- Rush service can compress the schedule when you confirm it at checkout.
