As a general rule, we recommend a 5mm artwork margin.
​
However to account for the binding edge, some bound documents require larger margins.
​
​Stapled sheets: 5mm
Wire Binding:  12mm
Hardback Wire Binding:  12mm
Comb Binding:  12mm
Velo Binding:  12mm
Ring binding: 12mm
Calendar: 12mm
Booklet printing: 5mm
Paperback Book: 7mm
Hardback Book:  7mm 

Please use the Document Preview to check the margin prior to checkout. If content is not visible due to the margin or binding holes, please edit and re-upload your file.

Background colour and images can run into this area, however we recommend that text is not placed beyond the purple line.
