THESIS BINDING

PLEASE READ & PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IF YOU REQUIRE AN ESTIMATE FOR BINDING YOUR THESIS

To provide you with an accurate quote we will need the following information completed in the form below. You can also email if you prefer to:  [email protected]

Thesis Form / Bookbinding

• Would you like Colour or Black & White Printing? Colour Black & White
• Are your margins set for single or double sided printing? Single Sided Double Sided
• Would you like lettering on the front cover and spine or spine only? Front cover & spine Spine only
• How many copies would you like?
• What Colour Covers would you like (select from swatches at bottom of page)
• Single Sided
• Double Sided
• Project reference

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON HOW TO PREPARE YOUR THESIS FOR PRINT

Firstly, the margin size is very important to make sure that nothing gets cut off when your Thesis is printed and bound.We recommend a margin of the following:

Inside Margin – 4cm

Outside margin – 2cm

Top & bottom margins – 2cm

Double Sided Page Printing:

If you would like your thesis printed double sided, you will need to mirror your margins. This means that for every 2nd page of your thesis, the margin needs to be reversed, so it has 2cm on the inside and 4cm on the outside.

This is necessary to allow the print on the back of the spread to be placed away from the binding edge.

Inserting Blank Pages for Double Sided Printing:

If you are doing double sided printing, you will need to add a blank page in certain positions within your document. This will ensure that the start of each chapter is printed on the front, rather than the back of the page. This generally needs to be done at the front of the thesis and at the beginning of chapters, depending on where they fall within the document.

Landscape Page Printing:

The same rules apply for printing of a thesis in landscape orientation as they do for portrait. Sometimes Word doesn’t give you the same flexibility with formatting landscape pages as it does with portrait, so if you have any issues let us know and we can assist.

If you require additional information, or have an unusual layout for your thesis, please contact us and we can advise the best way to provide your file.

and also George in Karatha Western Australia, with a simple Paperback that was falling apart,

Scroll Below, you may like to see some videos about my Bookbinding Work. Scroll further down where there are various areas of my website to Bindings that may interest you, from Old Family Bibles, Family History Bindings, Book Boxes, Paperback Repairs to Custom Leather Bindings, they are all here below. 

Videos You May Like To Watch

This video was aired on the 28th of November 2021, and the video was shot in February 2021, was not easy answering all the questions asked of me, and some editing does not match what I was handling in some shots, but generally I was happy with the outcome and appreciated Channel 9 showing this on

their TV Show MY WAY.

Many Thanks for watching, sorry the sound is not great. Thanks also to my wife Levella Watkins for doing what she does well, being there with me.

This video was shot by myself back around 2010, it shows myself restoring an Old Family Bible from when the Text Block was prepared and ready for a New Leather Cover, this shows myself Binding a New Leather Cover with Raised Bands and Gold Trim, I sped up the video so you can watch it over a couple of minutes here in my Bindery was over a two day period.

Notice my 23 Year Old Bindery Cat called Pixy, she often joined me in my Bindery when she wanted company.

This video was produced by myself, this Solander Box was Custom Bound for a customer who wanted to further protect his Mothers, Grandmother's Study Bible, I first restored this Study Bible Binding a New REAL Leather Cover in a Yapp Style, with raised bands and Gold Tooling on the spine, and then duplicated this onto his Solander Box. The Definition of a Solander box, or clamshell case, is a book-form case used for storing manuscripts, maps, prints, documents, old and precious books, etc. It is commonly used in archives, print rooms and libraries. It is named after the Swedish botanist Daniel Solander (1733–1782),[1] who is credited with its construction while working at the British Museum, where he catalogued the natural history collection between 1763 and 1782.

My specialty, old family bibles from the 16th century to the 20th century.

Bring Your Family Bible Back to Life & rekindle your Family History, using the original covers and spine covering I can bring new life back to your Family Bible to a point that it will last several more life times. 

I can Scan your Original Family History Pages and edit the pages leaving your period border decorations with clear areas to continue on with your Family History and the originals can then be sewn back into their original place in your Family Bible. Your Newly printed pages can be sewn back into your Text Block so that your Family History can be complete and ready for new entries. 

Or maybe you have purchased second hand one of these beautiful Family Bibles and wish to start your very own Family History.

Another of my Specialty Repairs, Study Bibles Re-Covered

Yes, is your study bible falling apart, pages falling out cover coming adrift you certainly don't want to loose all your highlighting and markings, comments and the like, how long would it take to transfer these across to a new study bible for it to happen again....ahhhh send your study bible to me and i will remove your awful fake leather cover, as all study bibles purchased over the last 90 years use imitation leathers, no matter what false info is written on your box, book manufacturers love leather on a roll and is far cheaper and more cost effective for them to have it bound in their machinery, the binding machines in factories cannot use real leather. check out some of the study bible rebinds i have have bound, all using real leather, soft bound, yapp edged, raised bands with gold tooling and title on the spine is a standard of my study bible bindings, bound for lifetimes of use, no longer will you have to replace your cover, and your pages will stay where they are meant to be, it will feel great in your hand, it will look great and as all my work is, a one off hand bound book bound by me, milton watkins master bookbinder..

Thesis printing & binding Adelaide

Drafting a thesis is a significant endeavour, and it’s probably kept you up many a night. But there’s no need to stress further about where and how to print and bind your efforts. Our online thesis printing  services will ensure your examiner is genuinely impressed.

Leather book binding  gives a top-tier finish to thesis binding , and thermal binding is another standout choice. With various embossing options, leather book binding truly stands out.

When selecting the leather book binding from the online Adelaide printing services, it’s good to note that springback binding only holds the thesis at the start and end, which might influence its durability.

However, the thermal binding is much more cost-effective with a clear and simple design. Its clear cover gives you a sneak peek of your paper’s title page.

If you can’t choose which type of thesis binding and printing is your perfect match, the online Adelaide printing services give you the opportunity to have a previous look with the live 3D online configurator.

Our tip: Opt for Leather book binding or thermal binding from our online Adelaide print shop.

Dissertation printing & binding Adelaide

Embarking on PhD research is a substantial commitment, leading to one of your most crucial final documents. Such a noteworthy work merits top-notch leather book binding, referred to as dissertation binding .

It’s about ensuring excellence and offering tailored options. When exploring options for dissertation printing and binding, keep an eye out for details like embossing and corner protectors. These can be sourced via Adelaide printing services online. Such enhancements truly amplify the sophistication of your thesis.

Remember, you might require several copies; in such scenarios, thermal binding can be an economical approach for printing and binding your PhD. work. Our advice? Choose leather book binding with embossing or thermal binding for multiple copies through our Adelaide online printing outlet.

Paper printing & binding Adelaide

Academic papers, grounded in research and understanding, are essential in one’s learning journey. These documents can vary from just a few pages to several hundred. If you’re searching for the best option in paper binding via our Adelaide printing services online, thermal binding is second to none. This method presents a stylish, cost-effective solution for both print and bind tasks. We recommend a transparent front cover to ensure your title page catches the eye. With the 3D configurator tool at our Adelaide online print shop, you’re sure to get a binding that enhances your document. We’ve simplified paper printing  for you!

Another printing and binding method provided by the Adelaide online printing service is spiral binding. You can choose between a metal or plastic comb depending on your preference, and its design is considered simple and straightforward. The spiral binding can hold up to 300 pages and is perfect for term-end assignments or scientific research papers.

For those using the online Adelaide printing services, our top recommendations are: Thermal binding or spiral binding .

Leather book binding

In Adelaide’s online print shop, we reckon premium leather book binding is the go-to for your final papers, thanks to its classy look. There are two types of leather book bindings: premium and standard. Both are top choices for your final paper when it comes to quality. The premium leather book binding  sports a sleek matte finish, while the standard one comes with a shiny finish, and both are ripper options.

With the Adelaide printing services, you can tune your premium or standard leather binding online, so it looks even fancier! Jazz them up with embossing on the cover and spine, adding a ribbon bookmark, or adding corner protectors. All these add-ons are available in noble colours, such as gold and silver.

We recommend: Leather book bindings for an eye-catching and unforgettable final piece.

Thermal binding

The thermal binding offered by the Adelaide printing services online is a top pick for chunkier documents of up to 450 pages. Thermal binding gives a sleek look, especially with its transparent front cover. Both the back cover and spine used for thermal binding  are made from dense, textured paper, and there are seven unique colours to choose from.

For shorter works, such as essays or research papers, thermal binding is spot on. Given its value for money, it’s the first choice when you need multiple copies of important documents, like postgraduate theses.

Our tip: Go with thermal binding for any scientific paper that’s a bit on the hefty side.

Comb Binding

At the Adelaide printing services online, we provide both spiral binding and comb binding with a sleek design at a competitive price. With comb binding, you can accommodate up to 300 pages, making it ideal for shorter essays and research papers.

This Adelaide printing services outlet offers choices for metal spiral binding or comb binding. The transparent front cover ensures your title page captures attention, and you can select from a range of colours for the back cover of your spiral binding.

Comb binding  and spiral binding involve accurately punching holes through each page, followed by inserting either a metal or plastic spiral. It’s cost-efficient and convenient, particularly if you’re getting multiple copies of your uni projects.

For shorter assignments, reports, and essays, comb binding and spiral binding are our top recommendations.

Thesis Binding

Thesis Book Binding or Dissertation Book Binding is the conversion of your thesis or dissertation document into a printed and bound book format. Getting this done correctly involves several considerations that includes the Submission of your document for printing and binding, your choice of Paper, and the Style of binding you want.

SUBMITTING YOUR THESIS OR DISSERTATION FOR BINDING:

The first consideration for Thesis Book Binding or Dissertation Book Binding is whether you want your thesis or dissertation printed and bound for official submission or for your personal use, such as gifts to professors, departments, libraries, parents, sponsors, or you just want copies to preserve for future generations.

If you are officially submitting your Thesis Book Binding or Dissertation Book Binding books to your

institution, you must follow their official guidelines for paper, margins, and type of binding. Every institution has

guidelines and your can ask your department or your graduate studies department for the guidelines. The quote/

ordering process for each of our 3 main types of binding is designed to accommodate all the options that most

schools require.

Binding Options Our 3 main binding options are:

• Fabric Hardcover Binding with Gold Embossed Lettering and Emblem on the cover https://phdbookbinding.com/fabric-hard-cover/
• Printed Hardcover Binding with wraparound full color printing on the cover https://phdbookbinding.com/printed-hard-cover/
• Perfect Binding Softcover with wraparound full color printing on the cover https://phdbookbinding.com/perfect-binding/

But if you’re getting the books for personal use, then you have the option to choose the type of paper, binding and margin size that you prefer. Here again, our quote/order process contains all the options you might want.

Digital or Paper Submission

The second consideration is whether you want to submit a file or paper document(s) for publishing your Thesis or Dissertation. You have the option to place your order with a PDF file or with a paper document. Submitting a PDF file ( https://phdbookbinding.com/digital-printing/#2 ) of your Thesis or Dissertation allows you to do the following online, sit back and forget about it, and receive your books in the mail:

• Specify the size of your book
• Choose the type of paper you want for printing ( https://phdbookbinding.com/digital-printing/#9 )
•  Specify the pages you want to print in color. ( https://phdbookbinding.com/faq/#9 ) Yes, we allow you to specify the pages you want to print in color and you’ll be charged the color rate ONLY for the pages you specify,NOT for all the pages in your document.
• Specify the exact lettering you want on the cover ( https://phdbookbinding.com/gold-foil-emblem-and-lettering/ )
•  Specify the exact lettering you want on the spine ( https://phdbookbinding.com/gold-foil-emblem-and-lettering/ )
• Specify your school emblem for the cover or request a custom emblem ( https://phdbookbinding.com/gold-foil-emblem-and-lettering/#SealList )
• Choose the shipping speed you want for getting back the completed book(s)

BOUND THESIS TODAY!

Thesis Binding Melbourne, Victoria Australia

We are thesis and design folio experts..

Binding Students work is the bread and butter of DB Bookbinders, which means we are set up with the tools, staff and experience to make your thesis or folio properly.

So many students think that the last and easiest part of the completion of their work is just printing out and sticking a cover on it. But in most cases, that is far from the truth. And, after having probably sold the farm, doubled up the mortgage and sold off a kidney to get this far, the last thing you need to worry about is having to reprint a 400 page document or scrap the whole book because of some poorly constructed binding that won’t pass the scrutinizing eyes of the Lecturers and /or examinations office, much less do all of your hard work the just it deserves.

Avoid making the last moment of your thesis or design folio be stressful and painful, come to the experts.
