They can lay flat and stay open when you are flipping through the pages, which makes it easier to read. Saddle-stitching is like the catalogs and magazines you get in the mail. It is two staples nested in the spine of the folded piece, securing the sheets together. It can go along the left edge or on top depending on how the project is planned out.

Saddle Stitch Booklets Saddle stitch is when single sheets of paper are printed on both sides, collated in page number order, folded in half and then stapled through the fold by a saddle stitch stapler. Saddle stitch binding is one of the most common binding methods for booklet manufacturing. Saddle stitch binding requires that any publication has a minimum of eight pages, four pages per spread. Saddle stitch documents need to be built in page multiples of 4 pages (8, 12, 16, etc.) because they are printed on sheets that are folded in half.

Quick Tips C1S indicates coated on one side and uncoated on second side. C2S indicates coated on both sides. Glossy stocks provide brighter colors, whereas matte and uncoated stocks provide softer colors. We do not recommend using heavy, dark ink on uncoated stocks due to offsetting. Ultra Violet (UV) Gloss is a high gloss coating. Aqueous (AQ) is a glossy coating, and Matte finish is a non-glossy, flat finish. You cannot write or print on UV-coated stocks, and we do not guarantee that you will be able to write on Aqueous-coated stocks.
