Question
What file formats and specifications do you need for booklets?
Answer
Booklets print best from print-ready PDFs built to the finished trim size with room for bleed and set page numbering.
| Spec | Requirement |
|---|---|
| File type | Print-ready PDF |
| Sizing | Final finished dimensions |
| Resolution | 300 DPI or higher |
| Bleed | 0.25" on all edges |
| Page setup | 12 separate files (one per page) or combined spreads |
- Confirm page order: check numbering with support. Typically the front cover is page 1 and the inside front cover is page 2.
- Keep it consistent: use the same size and bleed on every page so the booklet trims evenly.
