2. Photo book materials and binding process

1. The materials used in the photo book mainly refer to the paper on which the inner pages are printed. There are usually 3 kinds: coated paper, matte paper, pearl paper.

Since the paper is white, it is difficult to show the difference between the three with a picture.

Coated paper: smooth paper surface, high whiteness, reflective paper surface, good ink absorption and ink adhesion, commonly used paper for high-end books and photo albums.

Matte paper: Also known as matte coated paper. Compared to coated paper, it is less reflective when viewed in sunlight. Although the printed pattern is not as bright as the coated paper, the pattern is more delicate and higher-grade than the coated paper. The color will also be as reflective as the coated paper.

Pearl paper:It is a special paper with a very smooth, thick, reflective and pearly surface.It is also used for high-end picture albums, books, and exquisite packaging, and the price is relatively high.

If the pictures of the photo book are brightly colored and of high quality, you can choose matte paper, otherwise, it is recommended to use coated paper for printing. As for pearl paper, it is selected when there are physical samples.

2. Photo book binding and craftsmanship, mainly including hardcover, butterfly matching table hardcover, paperback, saddle stitching
