In short: Printseoul prints photo and art books from 100 copies in paperback or 200 in hardcover, on premium coated and uncoated papers with optional foil, spot UV, and embossing, and a physical proof for color checks.
Paper makes the book
- Gloss for maximum saturation and contrast.
- Matte for lower glare and a refined look.
- Uncoated for a warm, tactile page.
- Heavier interior weights, up to 250 gsm on the main coated papers, give a substantial feel.
Cover treatment
Matte lamination with spot UV or foil on the title is a popular premium combination. Embossing and debossing add texture. Use one or two effects rather than many so the cover does not look busy.
Prove it on paper
For work where color is critical, add a physical digital proof, and request a free sample kit to feel the stocks. Both are covered in E-Proof vs. physical proof.
