Start a pending order by adding a quote to your Cart and clicking Continue. Please label your files clearly before uploading with names like Page_1, Page_2, etc., so our system can place your files chronologically.

Visit our Print File Setup Guide for more information.

A multi-piece shipment refers to a single order containing multiple items. Once you add your first quote to your Shopping Cart, you can repeat the process for the same item or add a quote for another item via the categories at the top of the website. You can then upload your files to each item in one order.

The cut-off time for Confirmed orders is 4 pm CT every workday. It would help to confirm your order before these times to secure your estimated shipping date. Unconfirmed orders may mean you receive a new estimated delivery date. Visit our Shipping and Delivery Support Page for more information.

Upload one 300 dpi PDF file to your Artwork tab containing a back cover, spine, and front cover design. You only need to include a spine design file if you're printing a Perfect (PUR) item. If you do not upload a spine design file, the spine area will remain blank. Ensure your design matches the dimensions you selected in your initial quote, and before uploading, label it with a name like cover.pdf so our system can automatically put it in the correct place. Visit our Print File Setup Guide for more information.

A spine refers to the edge where the outer covers and interior pages are bound, typically featuring artwork, the publication title and the author's name. For Perfect (PUR) items, upload a single PDF file or design one as part of a cover spread at 300 dpi. You can find your spine dimensions in your Shopping Cart or Artwork tab. Add 0.125" bleed to the top and bottom of your spine. For Hardcover items, add a 0.2" hinge area on both sides of the spine and 0.8" bleed to the top and bottom. Labeling your files will also ensure they appear in the right place. If you cannot upload spine artwork, add a blank page by clicking the blue three-dot button under the spine thumbnail. Print work will only appear if you upload a spine design file. Otherwise, it will remain blank. Visit our File Setup Support Page for more information.

Lamination means applying a transparent plastic coating on top of prints to preserve, protect and enhance aesthetics. All laminations and finishes can affect the final appearance of printed colors, but each minimizes issues like marking, ink transferral, smudging, creasing, fading, wrinkling, abrasion and tearing. Please note we cannot laminate Uncoated and Recycled Paper stocks. Visit our Print Finishes Support Page for more information.

In today's digital age, where online advertising dominates the marketing landscape, it's easy to overlook the power and impact of physical print materials. However, for small business owners, magazine printing offers a unique opportunity to engage with customers tangibly and memorably. Whether it's online magazine printing or utilizing the services of magazine printing companies, the benefits are vast. Let's delve into how small business owners can use magazine printing as a powerful marketing tool.

Magazines provide a platform for small businesses to showcase their products and services in a visually appealing and comprehensive manner. Unlike online advertisements that can be easily overlooked, a well-designed magazine captures attention and encourages readers to explore further. From high-quality images to detailed descriptions, a printed magazine allows small business owners to highlight the unique features and benefits of their offerings, creating a lasting impression on potential customers.

A magazine serves as a powerful medium for small businesses to establish and reinforce their brand identity. By incorporating consistent branding elements such as logos, color schemes, and typography, a magazine becomes a visual representation of the brand. From cover to cover, every page can be carefully curated to reflect the business's personality, values, and mission. Small business owners can leverage magazine printing services to create a cohesive brand experience, strengthening customer connection and fostering brand loyalty.

Beyond product showcases, magazines provide a platform for small business owners to share valuable and engaging content with their target audience. From informative articles to how-to guides, interviews, and industry insights, a well-crafted magazine offers readers a compelling reason to engage with the brand beyond its products or services. By providing relevant and interesting content, small business owners can position themselves as thought leaders and experts in their respective fields, establishing credibility and trust with readers.

One of the key advantages of magazine printing is the ability to reach a specific target market. Small business owners can carefully select the distribution channels and locations where their magazines will be available, ensuring they reach their ideal customers. For example, a local boutique can distribute their magazines in neighboring stores, coffee shops, or community centers to target residents in the area. By placing their magazines in strategic locations, small business owners can increase brand visibility and connect with potential customers who may not have encountered their online presence.

Print-on-demand technology has revolutionized the magazine printing industry, offering small business owners a cost-effective and efficient way to print magazines. With print-on-demand services, small business owners can avoid the upfront costs and risks associated with large print runs. Instead, they can print smaller quantities based on demand, minimizing waste and allowing for flexibility in content updates and design revisions. Online magazine printing platforms make it easy for small business owners to upload their magazine files, customize print options, and deliver the magazines directly to their doorstep.
