A lot goes into book printing<\/a> or booklet printing<\/a>. You have to design and lay out each booklet page and select the type of binding<\/a> you want, which also sets the limit on your booklet page count. The content needs to be written, and pictures, graphs, and other visual images (if needed) must be produced or acquired. You have to select the type of paper and whether you want full color printing or just black and white. And you have to decide how many copies you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s one more thing you need to do before sending your booklet <\/a>pages to the printer, and that\u2019s to make sure you have correctly counted the number of pages. This may seem like a minor task, but having an accurate printer page count in your book or booklet achieves two important goals. It helps your order go through more smoothly, and it enhances communication with the customer service representatives about pages in your file. It pays to take the time to ensure you have an accurate printer page count before submitting your project to the printer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Incorrectly counting your booklet pages (i.e., counting by sheets or forgetting the covers) will cause your order to be misquoted when you check out. Your order will also be put on hold until we resolve the page count and collect additional payments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The simple way to count your booklet pages<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You might be surprised at the many ways you can come up with an inaccurate printer page count. Some people forget to include the covers. Some count the sheets of paper rather than the actual pages. Others may not include blank pages (such as the inside of the covers) in their total. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, there\u2019s a simple answer to how to count pages in a book for printing. To come up with the correct page count for your book or booklet, count every page, back and front, starting with the front cover. Here\u2019s an example to help you visualize how printing companies count booklet pages when printing. Imagine your closed book is in front of you, so you\u2019re looking at the front cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
