Page-Count Reference (50.8 mm / 2-Inch Hardcover Spine)

  • Coated / art paper (130–170 gsm):
    ~ 200–260 pages
    Ideal for photo books, art books, and illustrated children’s books.

  • Uncoated / offset paper (80–100 gsm):
    ~ 380–520 pages
    Common for textbooks, workbooks, manuals, and reference guides.

  • Premium photo paper (190–250 gsm):
    ~ 120–180 pages
    Suitable for luxury photo albums and coffee table books.

  • Mixed paper interiors (image + text sections):
