: Unicorn White is perfect for printing bright vibrant colours or photographs.

Choose our Elephant Natural for warmer tones and more of a newspaper finish.

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.

Pair our Colorplan range with white or metallic ink for a premium finish.

White Ink is only for our darker coloured paper stocks.
: 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.

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.

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.
