One of the key benefits of custom spiral notebook printing is the flexibility to select the perfect size that meets your specific needs. Whether you're looking for a small, pocket-sized notebook for on-the-go use or a larger one for detailed note-taking.Our standard sizes range from A6 (105mm x 148mm) to A4 (210mm x 297mm), making it easy for you to choose the right dimensions to suit your writing habits.
If you're unsure which size to choose, think about how you plan to use your notebook. For quick note-taking, a smaller size like A6 or A5 is ideal, as it offers portability and convenience. If you need more room for detailed sketches, diagrams, or extensive writing, consider opting for a larger size like A4 or B5. Keep in mind that the size of your spiral notebook will affect both its portability and how well it suits your specific tasks, so select a size that aligns with your intended use.
There are two binding options
Wire-O binding utilizes a metal wire threaded through punched holes along the edge of the notebook. This method allows the notebook to lie flat, giving you the flexibility to rotate it 360 degrees without causing any strain on the spine. The wire creates a clean and professional appearance, making it ideal for business presentations, project notes, and reports. One key advantage of Wire-O binding is that it allows you to easily add or remove pages, making the notebook adaptable to evolving needs.
Spiral binding uses a plastic coil threaded through punched holes along the edges of the notebook. Known for its flexibility, this method allows you to fold the notebook back upon itself, offering convenient handling. Whether you’re left-handed or right-handed, spiral binding ensures a smooth writing experience. Available in a variety of colors, the plastic coil also provides an option for personalizing your custom spiral notebook. Ideal for school projects, journaling, and creative writing, spiral bound notebooks combine practicality with a touch of customization.
The hidden Wire-O binding is a more refined variation of traditional Wire-O binding, where the metal wire is concealed within the spine of the notebook. This method offers the same benefits of easy page-turning and the ability to lay the notebook flat, but with a more streamlined and professional appearance. The concealed wire provides a sleek, smooth surface on the outside of the notebook, making it an ideal choice for high-end presentations, premium notebooks, or corporate materials. This design not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also protects the wire from wear and tear, ensuring the notebook’s longevity while maintaining its stylish finish.
To give your book a polished and professional look, we provide various surface finishing options. Here are some popular choices:
Foil stamping
Foil stamping is a technique that adds a layer of metallic or colored foil to your notebook cover, creating a shiny and attention-grabbing finish. This process allows you to enhance your design by adding logos, initials, or other decorative elements, giving your notebook a premium, personalized appearance.
Emboss
Embossing creates a raised pattern or design on the cover of your leather notebook by pressing it into the surface. This technique adds a sophisticated and tactile quality, make notebook not only visually attractive but also unique to the touch.
Deboss
Debossing is a technique that creates an indented design on your notebook cover, as opposed to embossing which raises the design. This process adds depth and texture, giving notebook a distinguished look that enhances its overall elegance.
Glitter edge
If you want to add some sparkle and elegance to your leather notebook, glitter edge finishing is an excellent choice. This process involves coating the edges of the notebook with glitter in various shades, creating a captivating effect that catches the light. With this finishing touch, your leather notebook will have a playful and luxurious look that reflects your unique personality.

To achieve the best quality for your custom notebook, it’s important to ensure that your artwork is properly prepared. Here are some tips to help you through the process:
Design Size: Create your artwork in the exact size of the notebook, including bleed and trim areas where necessary.
Resolution: Use high-quality images at 300 DPI to ensure your design appears sharp and clear in print.
Color Mode: Set your artwork to CMYK mode for accurate color reproduction when printed.
Fonts: Embed or outline the fonts used in your design to avoid any substitutions during the printing process.
High-Resolution Files: Make sure to submit your artwork in high-resolution (300 DPI or higher) to ensure crisp printing.
Vector Graphics: Use vector graphics where possible for scalability without losing quality, especially for designs that will be foil-stamped or embossed.
Consider Bleed and Trim: If your design runs to the edge of the notebook cover, include a bleed area (typically around 0.125 inches) to ensure clean trimming with no unwanted borders.
File Format: Save your artwork in a print-ready format, such as PDF or TIFF, and flatten all layers for the final submission.
Proofread and Double-Check: Review all the details in your design, including logos, text, and layout, to ensure everything is correct before submitting it for printing.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure your artwork is print-ready, resulting in a high-quality custom leather notebook.
