How many sheets can I choose per pad?Choose from 20 to 50 sheets per pad. A smaller sheet count makes a lighter pad, while a larger count provides more writing pages before the pad is used up.
Which notepad sizes are available?Available sizes range from compact memo formats such as 4" × 6" and 4.25" × 5.5" through Letter, Legal, A4 and Ledger sizes, with horizontal or vertical orientation.
Which edge can be glued?Choose Glue Short Edge for a traditional top-bound pad or Glue Long Edge for a side-bound layout. Select the orientation that places the glued edge where it is most comfortable for writing and page removal.
How should I choose paper for a notepad?Choose a stock that balances writing feel and appearance. Uncoated papers are a natural choice for everyday writing, while specialty textures or coated options can be useful when presentation and branding are more important.

How quickly can notepads be produced?Available choices include 3–4 Business Days, 2 Business Days, Next Business Day and Same Business Day for qualifying configurations. Timing depends on size, paper, sheet count, printing, gluing and artwork readiness.
