Book Printing in Sarkaghat

Print your book in Sarkaghat

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 Sarkaghat. Authors, publishers, coaching institutes and companies all use the same route.

Delivery to Sarkaghat 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.

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. Across everything delivered to Sarkaghat so far, the binding chosen most often is a corner staple, with loose sheets with no binding second.

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. We currently reach 6 pincodes in Sarkaghat, and parcels for this zone spend the full published window once dispatched.

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. Sarkaghat is one of the six hundred destinations by volume, at number 440 on 43 orders delivered.

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. 4 different printing products have been ordered to Sarkaghat so far, which is why the rate card below covers more than the one job you came for.
