Description
MAD Monkey Media prints 100lb gloss text booklets (8.5 x 5.5) in full color for catalogs, programs, menus and guides. Every booklet is saddle stitched (folded and stapled on the spine) so it lies flat and holds up to repeated reading.
100lb gloss text is a heavier text weight with a glossy surface, so pages feel substantial and colors stay vivid.

Frequently asked questions
Why do page counts go up in fours?
Each sheet is folded in half and stapled, so one sheet makes four pages. Plan your layout as 8, 12, 16 and so on, counting the front and back cover as pages.
What is the difference between self cover and a 14pt cover?
A self cover uses the same paper as the inside pages, which keeps the booklet light and the price lower. A 14pt cover is a heavier card stock that makes the booklet feel sturdier and lasts longer when it is handled a lot, such as a catalog or a menu.
How should I set up my file?
Send a print-ready PDF at the finished size with the pages in reading order, extend background colors past the trim line, and keep text away from the edges and the spine.
Can you design or lay out my booklet?
Yes. Our in-house designers in Dallas can build the layout from your text and photos or clean up an existing file. See graphic design services.
How long does it take?
Production takes 4 to 5 business days after you approve the proof. Shipping time is added on top and shipping is calculated at checkout.
