Paper Types and Print Colours
For school books, Printster recommends 70 GSM or 75 GSM natural-shade paper for standard textbooks and notes, and 90 GSM paper for workbooks where students write or draw directly on the pages. Black-and-white printing keeps costs down for text-heavy content, while full-colour printing is ideal for illustrated chapters, diagrams, and activity sheets. Every print includes margins on all sides — borderless printing is not offered.
Binding Choices That Last the School Year
A well-bound school book survives daily commutes and heavy use. Printster offers saddle stitch binding for thin booklets (ideal for unit notes or short question banks), wiro and spiral binding for workbooks that need to lie flat, perfect-bound soft covers for subject books of 60 pages or more, and hardcover binding for reference volumes. Do note that hardcover and soft cover binding adds 1 to 2 working days to the production timeline.
Uploading Your File
Print-ready PDFs with embedded fonts produce the sharpest results. Printster also accepts DOCX, DOC, PPT, PPTX, JPG, PNG, and ZIP formats. Files up to 100 MB upload directly on the website; for larger files use WeTransfer. The online configurator lets you preview your selections and get an instant quote before you pay.

Printster delivers school books to all major Kolkata neighbourhoods.

Binding-intensive options like hardcover may sit toward the higher end of that window. Once dispatched, order tracking is available through the Printster platform.

Frequently asked questions
- How many days does it take to deliver school books in Kolkata?
- Printster delivers to Kolkata — including Salt Lake, Park Street, Howrah, and New Town — within 7 to 10 working days from the next working day after your order is confirmed. Hardcover binding may add 1 to 2 days within that range.
- Which binding style is best for a school subject book?
- Perfect-bound soft cover is popular for subject books with 60 or more pages — it gives a clean spine and lies reasonably flat. For thinner unit notes, saddle stitch is a cost-effective choice. Wiro binding works well for workbooks students write in regularly.
- Can I order just a single copy of a school book?
- Yes. Printster does not require large minimum quantities. You can order even a single copy — check the online price calculator for per-copy pricing at your preferred quantity.
- Is cash on delivery available in Kolkata?
- No. All Printster orders are paid online in advance through a secure payment gateway accepting cards and net banking. COD is not available at any location.
- What file format should I use for school book printing?
- A PDF with embedded fonts is strongly recommended as it preserves layout, fonts, and images exactly as intended. DOCX, PPT, JPG, PNG, and ZIP files are also accepted.
- Can I include both colour and black-and-white pages in the same school book?
- Printster's online configurator lets you specify colour or black-and-white for your print job. For mixed requirements, contact Printster's support team or place separate orders for different sections.
