Most booklet decisions come down to how the piece will be used and how it will reach people. Binding, page count, and paper follow from that.
Booklets earn their keep as product catalogs and sales kits mailed to a customer list, as event programs and trade-show handouts, and as counter pieces and leave-behinds. Build the file at trim size with 0.125 inch bleed, run it through our free file check, and we quote the print run (and the mailing, if there is one) from that file.

We print booklets and mail them in the same managed workflow, so the spec that goes on press is the spec that goes in the mail. That matters because how a booklet travels is decided by its size, weight, and closure, and all three are set before the file is final.
Most booklet mail moves one of two ways. Catalogs, thicker booklets, and anything larger than letter size mail as USPS Marketing Mail flats or First-Class Mail flats, and we quote flat postage per job because it depends on weight, presort depth, and entry point. A saddle-stitched booklet can travel at letter prices as a booklet mailer only when it meets the USPS letter-size booklet standards in DMM 201.3.16: a bound spine, a cover of at least 60 lb basis weight (higher for some designs), a finished size inside the limits in the adjacent card, and open edges sealed with nonperforated tabs, glue lines, or glue spots placed per the USPS exhibit for that design.
Pieces that go out without an envelope need wafer seals or tabs on the open edges. We apply them inline on our finishing line, then run the same list work every mailing gets: NCOA move updates, CASS standardization, deduplication, presort, Intelligent Mail barcoding, and direct USPS entry from Lakeland. For catalog mailing, tell us the page count, trim size, paper, list count, and in-home date. We map the piece to the mail class that fits and quote print and postage together before you approve the proof.
