Special Edition Book Printing
Custom Special Edition Books
Below are some of the customization options available for limited edition books:
● Hardcover binding for the limited edition, while the common edition is paperback.
● Special cover surface finishes, such as embossing, spot UV, or foil stamping.
● Faux leather or fabric covers to offer a luxurious touch.
● Painted or foil gilded edges, adding an elegant finish to the pages.
● Slipcases, perfect for presenting the book as a collectible item.
Limited edition books are typically printed with the same interior as their common edition counterparts. However, they stand apart with distinct cover designs, binding methods, and unique copyright pages. By printing both editions together, we can share the interior printing files, making the limited edition books more affordable without compromising on quality.
