What makes for a lasting yearbook?
PREMIUM PRINTING PRESSES

maintains the texture and gloss level of the substrate.

Offset
Rough edges with dot
gain and limited ink densities
Microsphere-based body blanket, eliminating shadow graininess and improving solid areas, making them more silky and even
Superfine adaptive color profile that reduces black color in image flat tint areas while increasing blacks in the more ‘noisy’ areas of the image for improved sharpness
Optimized two-dimensional color uniformity correction, improving cross-sheet as well as side-to-side color uniformity
Full cylinder color uniformity calibration, viewing the two sides of the cylinder as one sheet for a robust and reliable color uniformity correction
Smooth vignettes, enabling continuous color gradation with no contouring areas
7 colors calibration for optimized gamut and color consistency
Sewn books are bound to be archival. Smyth sewing is the only choice for high-end binding and will perform best despite repeated use over the years.
Sewn books open better allowing them to lay flat. This lay-flat quality lets your photos flow uninterrupted over the entire book spread.
Smyth Sewing in Action
Smyth Sewing your Yearbook is Key
Beware of Glue-only Binding!
Books that do not use smyth sewing will begin to fall apart after 1-2 years.
