Maximize High-Quality, Organized Brochure Printing
Choosing the Best Material for Your Booklet
Enhancing your booklet’s appearance and durability starts with choosing the right materials for the cover and inside pages. For the cover, you have several options. Use 80 and 100 lb. paper gloss for short-term use and promotional materials. For professional presentations and high-end brochures, opt for 10 pt. cardstock. For more durable booklets like annual reports, 14 pt. cardstock is the perfect option. And if you desire top-notch, long-lasting booklets, look no further than 16 pt. cardstock. With the right materials, your booklet will truly stand out!
For the inside pages, 70 lb. paper uncoated works well for text-heavy booklets like manuals. Choose 80 lb. paper for image-heavy booklets to enhance colors. For a variety of finishes, use 100 lb. paper. For high-quality, durable pages in premium booklets, 10 pt. cardstock is ideal. Depending on your needs, you might prefer a matte finish for a sophisticated look or a gloss finish to make colors vibrant.
