What is a Softcover Perfect Bound Book?

A softcover perfect-bound book is a book with a square 90-degree spine and a cover that is thicker than the interior pages. The cover is wrapped around the book and glued to the pages along an edge that becomes the book’s spine. All perfect bound books have a spine, and it can be as small as 0.05″ or as large as 4″.

Softcover perfect bound books are the most popular type of book we produce at Copywell, because of its efficient production methods and quick setup, the softcover perfect-bound book is the most popular choice of bookbindery among publishers, self-publishers and organizations.

Softcover perfect bound books are the most common type of books we produce at Copywell — Softcover perfect bound books have a square spine, and the cover is thicker than the interior paper and wrapped around the book block and glued to the spine.

What is the Spine Size of My Softcover Book?

The spine size of your book is determined from the page count and paper type of the interior pages. When you request a quote for a softcover perfect-bound book from Copywell, the quotation will display the spine size of the book so you can set up your cover artwork using that.

What Does a Softcover Book Cost?

Softcover Cover Coating Options

We offer a variety of book cover coatings that will protect your book from dents, scuffing and scratching in the bindery process. We strongly recommend all books have a cover coating, failure to include one may result in damage in bindery or transit. Laminate is the best choice for your book cover, as it is a plastic protective film that is fused to the cover, resulting in a long lasting durable bond.

The types of cover coatings we offer are:

Gloss laminate (OPP or Polyester Films)
Matte laminate (OPP or Polyester Films)
Soft-touch laminate (OPP Film only)
Raised Spot UV with Matte Lamination (OPP or Polyester Films)

How To Supply Interior Pages

When you’re ready to send your PDF files to us for printing a softcover book, please supply your files as follows:

Interior setup a single page PDF, assembled in order, with 1/8″ bleeds

Single page PDF's display one printed page at a time, rather than multiple pages joined together. — In the diagram above, each PDF page is one single printed page, and all pages are assembled in readable order.

Highly recommend! I’ve used Copywell to print my book for a couple years... now, and I’ve received incredible customer service and the quality is perfect. They actually care about their customers, and it shows. I had a shipping mix-up (somebody stole my packages) and they went out of their way to reprint them and drop them off personally to me! I won’t go anywhere else for my printing needs. This is why I support small local business!read more

If you are looking for a great professional place to get your book printed... do not look further. Go to Copywell. Everyone is very helpful and noone appears to want to dismiss you right away.

I had bad luck elsewhere but here I had two books printed out and everything went smoothly and quickly. If I sent off an email, I was answered promptly.

Writing is a hobby for me and, with that in mind, I didn't want the... self-publishing process to feel like "work". I'm so glad I chose Copywell to print my book because they made the process easy. They were very responsive with emails from day one and really quick with answering questions. I was considering a few other printing companies and what made me choose Copywell was a fair and detailed quote and the concise instructions on what to send. There was no guess work with the margins, fonts, formatting, cover specifications, etc. This is the part that could have been painful for me as a first-time author. I was so happy with the quality of the end result, from the paper to the ink quality... everything looks extremely professional. They came in early from what the quote said and the books showed up in perfect condition because they were packaged really well. Copywell - YOU ROCK!!!read more

My first time writing and publishing a book. I did a lot of research on... who will publish my novel. I spoke with USA and Canadian companies but it was the people at Copywell that truly impressed me, guided me, made great suggestions and options. Copywell made the process easier and a lot of fun and when I received that first test print, all of the suggestions they made were felt more than seen, it was such an amazing moment in the entire process. A few months later with a few new edits and it was off to full production and once again completely satisfied with the final print. Been receiving compliments from readers on the quality of the printing and the story. Thank you very much Copywell and the amazing staff behind every detail of the process of printing. Looking forward to printing my second novel.read more

Our cottagers' association is absolutely thrilled with the books we had... printed at Copywell to celebrate our 50th anniversary. The price was good. Service and communication were excellent. The quality is top notch. The finished books were ready for pick up by the estimated time. The whole process couldn't have been any better.I highly recommend that you have a sample book printed before printing your entire run. Images always look different on-screen than they do once they are printed. Personally I found that photos on my monitor appeared lighter than the printed sample. By printing the sample it allowed me the opportunity to lighten any photos that printed darker than I anticipated and resubmit my file. It's expensive but worth every cent.A huge thank you to the entire team who worked on our books!read more

My first time publishing a book. I learned about Copywell by doing an... online search. The reviews were really high, and I thought they looked legit, so I gave Copywell a try. I can honestly say that this is one of those rare times in my life where people exceeded expectations. Their customer service was phenomenal. I was clueless about the publishing process. They were so patient with me. They finished the printing ahead of the forecast date. The quality of the product is excellent. And my favourite thing of all is that they were transparent throughout the entire process. They have built my trust and loyalty. I highly recommend Copywell.read more

This was all a change and best of all, they didn't charge me over $12,000 for only 400 books delivered to my home.If you are a first-time publisher/author like I am don't be afraid to try Trina and her people here!read more

I spent over 30 years researching and developing our family tree. Since I... had spent so much time and effort on this project, I wanted to make sure that the printing of the books (required two volumes) reflected my desire to produce a top quality product that the entire extended family would enjoy for years to come. I am so grateful that I decided to go with Copywell. Mark and the team were outstanding, especially since they had to deal with someone who was extremely meticulous and writing for the first time. I believe the best compliment I can share is that they put me at ease right from the beginning. Also, the professionalism throughout this process would be difficult to match. They responded quickly to my questions or requests for feedback. In addition, they produced the books within the estimated timeline. I am extremely pleased with these books. The quality is better than I had anticipated – and my expectations were high! Everyone in the family is quite impressed with the quality of the books. One cousin commented that she wasn’t sure what to expect, but the books went beyond her expectations. This is my legacy for the family. It would be in the best interest of anyone considering self-publishing to consider the Copywell Team. I look forward to working with Copywell again.read more

I've printed two projects with Copywell and I would highly recommend them... to anyone.Mark helped me with printing my second graphic novel (I printed elsewhere the first time and was unhappy with the quality), and it turned out beautifully. The image/colour quality was perfect, and the book feels amazing in hand. Prices for a low-hundreds print run was competitive with all other nearby companies.I loved Copywell so much that I returned to them with an out-of-the-box printing request: one copy each of 4 different public domain novels, printed with custom hardcovers as a gift to my wife. Mark forwarded my email to Trina, who walked me through the entire process step-by-step, designed the covers & interiors of the books for me, and was a joy to work with every step of the way. This project was a huge undertaking, in my opinion, and Trina was professional, responsive, and supportive throughout. She gave me the impression that she put as much passion into this gift as I did, and I can't wait to finish a new book to have a reason to work with Copywell again.In addition, the staff at their Woodbridge facility has always been pleasant to visit (when I go to pick up my books).Seriously, great company to print with.read more

Copywell absolutely blew me away with the quality they were able to... produce for my book project.We had a project that was supposed to be printed on an offset press, and when we had to reduce the quantity we were printing we no longer met the minimums for any larger-scale manufacturers.Copywell saved the day and provided a truly impressive and high-quality end-product that more than met my standards. We printed hundreds of high-resolution images in our art book and they all turned out incredibly colour accurate and clear.On top of all of that, their customer service was impeccable. They went above and beyond to deliver the finished product we needed, and put up with a lot of changing specs and delays while we sorted out the logistics of our project. They even outsourced some printing for our covers since we were printing at the limits of their press, which saved me having to redesign the entire book to be smaller.They happily surprised me when they were able to take on an extra job and print greeting cards that were part of our Kickstarter rewards. Again, these turned out incredibly well.Finally, they were a huge help when they took on shipping fulfillment for a number of our orders. They were incredibly efficient and had over a hundred orders out in less than a week after we finalized our payment. On top of that, they once again sourced specialty supplies when we needed custom shipping boxes for our oversized books and the cost was still on-par with Canada Post (better, actually).I can't recommend Copywell enough for any small-press or promotional project. I've recommended them to other companies and they've had similarly high-quality results.Thanks Shikha and everyone at Copywell!read more

If I could give 10 stars I would in a heartbeat :) I had my cookbook... printed with Copywell, and the entire experience has been stellar - from sales to prepress to production to even after sales. Trina and Mark are incredible assets for Copywell. I had expressed from the beginning that I did my research with printers overseas, but I personally found that they continuously added immeasurable value through their time, attention, expertise, and literally for actually caring for the project. When you get this crew to print your project, they are not just printing ink to paper but printing your passions and helping you achieve your project goals.I also had Copywell create the ebook. Since my book launch, I have been marketing it through my YouTube cooking show and have been mailing hundreds of print copies across the globe. Moreover, I've received many high praises regarding the beauty of the book (the addictively smooth cover - thanks Trina!) not only from colleagues, but from paying customers around the world.I'm looking forward to more print runs on this book plus future projects with Copywell with great anticipation :)- Wil Yeungread more

We hired Copywell to print our first set of high quality / professional... training materials. To say that it met my expectations would be an understatement.Chang Su was very responsive during the sales process, and their prices were so reasonable compared to all other competitors that I feared the quality would be bad. It wasn't.The books came out beautifully. I'm very proud to have our materials provided by Copywell. We'll be a longtime / loyal customer!read more

I've been printing my comic book series with Copywell for the past couple... years. They are such fantastic printing partners, and I say partners because that is what they really are. They truly care about the clients that they service, and will go the extra mile to make sure your end product is of fantastic quality and accurate. Not to mention great prices that is more than out-matched by the quality of the inks and paper stocks that they use. Thanks to JD, Mark and team!read more

We recently printed a recipe photo book with Copywell as a fundraising... project for a local charity. The books turned out beautifully and everyone was impressed by the quality of the print. We also appreciate the great customer service from the staff, especially Mark. This is our first print project and we asked many questions. Mark promptly responded to all our questions and was patient in guiding us through the process. Turnaround was very quick which allowed us to make a deadline. I will definitely use Copywell for all of our future projects.read more

I discovered Copywell after looking for a local printer to produce my... photobooks. After working with Mark, I can confidently say that there is no other place I will consider getting my books made. He has been so incredibly accommodating and helpful, and I feel like I am treated so personally despite knowing there are probably many other people and orders going on. The prices for my books have also been incredibly reasonable, and I am able to continue my business successfully because of the help from everyone at Copywell. Would highly recommend and refer other people to use their services.read more

I used Copywell's services last year to print my books, as well as my... posters. Not only did they have the best price (by far, lower than every other quote I was receiving, even from the US) but they were also personable and responded quickly to every question.The quality was incredible, any time there was an issue, they were on the ball with informing us. They helped me get my black-tones perfect for the final print, as well as working on alignments/margins to make sure it printed.In addition to that, compared to previous printers we've used, we found the colour in the print was much more true (there doesn't seem to be any weird tint that I've found with other printers during their print runs), and crisp. 100% recommend giving Copywell a chance, especially if you feel your next step is to look out of the country!read more
