What Alathur customers print most

Across our own orders delivered to Alathur, the most common job is PDF Print, followed by Paperback / softcover / softback Books, A4 Printing. A typical pdf print order from Alathur runs about 74 pages in a single copy. The binding most often chosen here is loose sheets with no binding, followed by soft cover (perfect) binding. Every one of these is priced from the same rate card below.

Soft binding and paperback printing in Alathur

Soft cover binding — also called perfect binding or soft binding — glues the pages into a wrapped colour cover with a flat, printed spine. It is the format most people mean by a paperback, and it is the second most ordered job we deliver to Alathur after plain document printing.

Soft cover binding is ₹110 per copy at 1 to 50 copies, ex-GST, on top of the per-page printing cost. It suits anything from about 40 pages upward — below that the spine is too thin to hold a square edge, and a spiral or centre staple is the better choice. Soft cover adds 1 to 2 working days to production, so allow for that against your deadline.

A4 printing and printouts in Alathur

Plain A4 printing is the workhorse order from Alathur: assignments, reports, forms, applications and everyday documents.

A4 black and white is ₹0.60 a page double-sided and ₹0.85 single-sided for a standard order of 1 to 49 copies over 20 pages; a document of 20 pages or fewer is ₹0.63 double-sided. Colour on the same paper is ₹3.36 double-sided. There is no minimum order — a single page in a single copy is a valid order.

Poster printing delivered to Alathur

Posters are one of the more frequently ordered jobs from Alathur. They print on heavier coated stock — 170, 225 or 300 GSM in matte or glossy — in A4, B5, 12 × 18 inch or 13 × 19 inch. 300 GSM matte is the recommended stock.

Because posters are a single sheet on heavy paper the per-page rate is higher than document printing, and the price shown in the calculator already reflects the stock you pick. Posters ship flat or rolled depending on size; the packaging is chosen to protect the print rather than to a fixed rule.

Why order printing online in Alathur instead of finding a shop

Good print and binding is not always easy to find locally in Alathur, and quality varies between counters. Ordering online gives you the same equipment and the same rate card as any other city: upload the file, see the price before paying, and it is delivered in 7 to 10 working days.

Binding is the part that is hardest to get locally - spiral, soft cover and hard binding all come from the same rate card here, with no minimum order. Typical courier transit to Alathur is about 5 days once the job leaves our facility, on top of 3 to 5 working days of production.
