Helpful Tips - Trim Size

We have developed five standard book sizes, with built-in savings. These sizes are generally the most common trim sizes in bookstores. Special trim sizes, which stray from standard ones, require an extra fee.

Unless yours is a specialty book which requires a unique size or shape, we recommend that you choose a standard trim size, which is commonly accepted and most economical.

Standard Trim Sizes:

• 8.5” x 11”
• 7” x 10”
• 7.5” x 9”
• 6” x 9”
• 5.5” x 8.5”

Special Trim Sizes:

• Must be between 4.75” x 7” and 8.5” x 11”
