Book Printing in Dhanbad

Print your book in Dhanbad

Printing a book used to mean a print run you had to sell. It does not any more: Printster prints from your PDF at any quantity, from a single author copy to a run of a thousand, and couriers the finished books to Dhanbad. Authors, publishers, coaching institutes and companies all use the same route.

Delivery to Dhanbad in 5 to 10 working days, counted from the next working day after the order is confirmed. Hard cover, soft cover and glue-tape binding add one to two extra working days. Cash on Delivery is not available — payment is taken online before the job goes to print.

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. Within Jharkhand we deliver to 22 cities, and Dhanbad is number 1 of them by order volume.

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. For reference, a typical pdf print job we print for Dhanbad runs about 84 pages in a single copy.

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. Across everything delivered to Dhanbad so far, the binding chosen most often is loose sheets with no binding, with spiral binding second.

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. We currently reach 42 pincodes in Dhanbad, and parcels for this zone spend the full published window once dispatched.

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. Dhanbad is inside our top fifty destinations by volume, at number 24 on 648 orders delivered.
