Perfect bound books are formed by a stack of printed text pages, glued into the cover at the spine with a strong yet flexible glue to create a square backed spine.
The other three sides of the book are then trimmed as needed to give them clean “perfect” edges.

-
the cover is printed flat before assembly, so has the opportunity for different print options such as embossing.
