What is the minimum number of books I can print?

One. There is no minimum run and no setup fee, because this is digital rather than offset printing. Per-copy cost falls at 100 copies or more, where A5 printing drops from Rs 0.38 to Rs 0.34 a page.

How much does it cost to print 100 paperback books?

For a 200-page A5 book: about Rs 68 of printing per copy at the Rs 0.34 A5 rate that applies at 100 copies or more, plus Rs 110 for perfect binding — roughly Rs 17,800 for the run before GST and delivery. The calculator prices your actual file.

Printing a book no longer means a print run you have to sell. We print from your PDF at any quantity, from a single author copy to a run of a thousand, in paperback or hardbound, and courier the finished books anywhere in India.

Paperback or hardbound

Soft cover perfect binding at Rs 110 a copy is the paperback: a printed spine, a squared edge, the thing a bookshop sells. Hard binding at Rs 250 gives a rigid board cover for library copies, gifts and anything meant to last, and Rs 275 adds golden print on the front. Spiral at Rs 40 and wiro at Rs 45 are for workbooks and manuals that need to lie flat rather than look like books.

What a print run actually costs

The printing scales and the binding does not. A 200-page A5 novel is Rs 76 of printing at Rs 0.38 a page, or Rs 68 at Rs 0.34 on 100 copies or more, plus Rs 110 a copy for perfect binding. A hundred copies of that book is roughly Rs 17,800 before GST and delivery. The calculator gives the exact figure against your own page count.

Choosing the trim size

A5 is the natural novel and handbook size and costs Rs 0.38 a page against A4 at Rs 0.60. A4 suits technical books, manuals, workbooks and anything with diagrams, tables or code. Decide before you typeset, because reflowing a finished book into a different trim size moves every page break in it.

Spine width and the cover

Spine width follows page count and paper GSM, and the spine calculator on printster.in gives the exact measurement. Design the cover to that figure — a spine set 3 mm too narrow puts the title round the corner onto the front board. Supply the cover as its own file rather than as page one of the text PDF.

Preparing the interior

One PDF, fonts embedded, images at 300 DPI, page size consistent from first page to last. Set a mirrored gutter of at least 15 mm on the inside edge for perfect binding, or the text runs into the spine. Check that blank versos fall where you intended, because a missing blank shifts every page after it from recto to verso.

Colour interiors

Colour is Rs 3.36 per A4 page double-sided against Rs 0.60 black and white, and a mixed file is priced as colour throughout. For a book with a colour plate section, supply the black-and-white body and the colour plates as separate files and have them bound as one volume — on a 300-page book that is the difference between hundreds and thousands of rupees.

Proof one copy before the run

Order a single copy from the final PDF and read it in your hand: the gutter, the running heads, the spine, the image pages, the last page. It costs a few hundred rupees and it is the only reliable check on a run of hundreds. Almost every fault that ruins a print run is visible in the first copy.
