Diaries & Journals

Keep life organised with a custom printed diary or journal.

: Gone are the days of forgetting birthdays, double booking and simply not remembering what day it is. Keep all your ideas in one place with a custom printed diary or journal, printed on a range of recycled and responsibly sourced paper stocks.

We square back our staple bound diaries so they sit flat and have a super slick finish. If perfect bound is your thing please note we use a hot melt EVA glue. If you aren’t sure what to go for please get in touch.
: Unicorn White is perfect for printing bright vibrant colours or photographs.

Beluga Smooth is the best option if you are wanting a satin finish.

Perlino Cotton is great for full colour designs as it flattens off the sheen.

Oribi Straw is perfect for an vintage organic look.

Our Colorplan and Perlino coloured paper range work well with simple monochrome designs.

White Ink is only for our darker coloured paper stocks.
: Note: Perfect bound books with higher page counts can result in decreased artwork visibility in the centre of each spread due to the fold. Because of this, we advise keeping text a minimum of 10mm away from the fold.

Files should be submitted in CMYK colour profile and at 300DPI

Your artwork must be provided at the size you want with a 3mm bleed around each outward facing edge, see our helpful bleed guide here.

Your file is to be provided as a multiple page PDF with individual pages, covers can be provided as spreads if artwork wraps around the front and back.

If you want white ink, please provide the file with a white background and the design in a black vector format.

A copy of any aspect of the artwork that is to be printed in metallic should be included as a spot colour called “Silver” on the top-most layer within the artwork with overprint enabled and supplied as a PDF, AI or PSD file.
