Typically you can tell the difference by the amount of ‘daylight’, or space, between the base of the press and the platen. True book presses have well over 8+ inches of daylight between the two, accommodating several books at one time.

  3. Sep 3, 2010 · My understanding is the main difference between a copy press and a book press is the amount of daylight between the platen and the base. My press has only 3-1/2″ daylight which is fine for a single book. Book presses have at least 12″ of space so they can accommodate more than one book in the press. David Amstell piped in

  4. A larger version is the standing press, which allows multiple books to be pressed at once. The press that most bookbinders use when they need to work on the spine of a book, etc, is a finishing press.

    • A Computer running Photoshop. You can’t just receive an image and press ‘print’. When you shift from one medium to another (screen to paper) or one scale to another (art on the wall to art on the page), colour and perceptions change.
    • A Monitor. You don’t have to have an expensive monitor, just a consistent one. The human brain is not very good at remembering, with any accuracy, specific colours, but it is brilliant at detecting difference.
    • A Press. Because you do have to print something. In the mid 2000s I spent time researching all our options for printing, looking at using both digital and offset litho printing.
    • A sewing machine. If you want the book to open flat and to last then you have to section sew. Although you could sew everything by hand, our bindery uses a Muller Martini semi-automatic sewing machine, which was supplied by Oscar Friedheim so long ago that they can’t find any record of it.

    With offset and most digital book printing, the printing is done on large sheets and then folded into 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, or even 32 pages, depending on the machinery, the paper stock, and the trim size of the book. The end result is a booklet called a signature, with all the pages in order. It’s quite ingenious. Your book might end up with a few or ...

    Once you know how hard covers are put together, you’ll quickly catch on to the concept of paperback book binding. The method is called perfect binding; I’m not sure how it got this laudatory name, as paperbacks used to fall apart quite easily. Perfect binding has come a very long way, though, and actually is nearly perfect these days. Basically, af...

    An Espresso Book Machine (EBM) combines printing and binding all in one place. Some libraries and book stores own one for customers to print their own copies of out-of-print books or books they’ve written themselves. It’s hard to believe, but yes, you can give the machine two PDF files (one for the cover and one for the pages), and a perfect-bound ...
