Book Printing in Tinsukia

Print your book in Tinsukia

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

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

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. We currently reach 7 pincodes in Tinsukia, and parcels for this zone spend the full published window once dispatched.

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. Tinsukia is inside our top two hundred destinations by volume, at number 182 on 97 orders delivered.

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. Within Assam we deliver to 34 cities, and Tinsukia is number 10 of them by order volume.

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. For reference, a typical pdf print job we print for Tinsukia runs about 131 pages in a single copy.
