Book Binding Methods

saddle stitched and perfect bound books

Although there are many ways to gather printed pages together, Saddle Stitching and Perfect Binding are the two most common methods of binding a multi-page booklet, catalog or magazine.

Saddle Stitching

saddle-stitched booklets

Saddle Stitching is one of the most common and economical methods of binding booklets. It is a binding method in which folded sheets are stapled through the fold (spine). Because a saddle-stitched booklet is formed from folded sheets of paper that are stapled into the fold, each sheet creates 4 pages (a non-folded sheet would not be able to staple into the spine). Thus every saddle stitched booklet MUST have a page count that is divisible by 4 (8-page, 12-page, 16-page, etc.).

Saddle stitching is more economical than perfect binding (soft-cover books), but the maximum number of pages that can be stapled is typically around 96. The exact “maximum number of pages” will vary depending on thickness of the paper used to make the booklet. At some point the total thickness of the combined pages become too thick for a staple to be able to penetrate the paper.


perfect bound book

Perfect Binding
Soft-Cover Books

Perfect Binding is the method of book binding used in a soft-cover (paperback) book. The inner pages
of the book are covered with a thicker paper (or cardstock) cover, and are held together with glue rather than
stitches or staples. Also known as adhesive binding, the glue on the spine of gathered pages keep them securely bound. Perfect bound books have rectangular spines.


spiral bound book

Coil Binding
Soft-Cover Books

Spiral Binding is a method of binding in which the pages are fastened together by a plastic or wire spiral that coils through holes that are punched along one side of the booklet. Spiral binding (or coil binding) has an advantage over saddle stitched and perfect bound books in that they can easily be opened and laid flat.


comb bound booklets

Comb Binding
Cerlox, Surelox, or GBC binding

Comb binding is very similar to spiral binding as a method or binding pages together into a book.
Using round plastic spines and a hole puncher that makes rectangular holes, comb binding is also referred to as plastic comb binding or spiral comb binding.

One disadvantage is, although the book can lie flat, it cannot be opened 360 degrees due to the comb as an obstructive body. For this reason coil binding has become a more popular option.
