A magazine print is a project requiring time and money in order to get great results for high quality. There are quite a few small details that can make a big difference in a magazine, such as the type of paper, ink, binding, and even the number of pages. All of these make or break a magazine, so before starting on a magazine print project, here are some things to consider.

Things to Know About Magazine Print

Project Budget – Determining the budget for the magazine project keeps the end goal in mind. If the budget is too low or unreasonable, you won’t achieve great results or responses to the magazine project.

Quantity Needed – The number of magazines must be realistic and fit into the budget. The number of magazines you need can determine the print process. Save room within the budget to order extra magazines.

Paper Stock – The most important element of a magazine. The type of paper showcases the graphics of the magazine project so be sure to explore the quality that best suits your magazine project.

What Kind of Binding to go With – Although there are various types of bindings for magazine print, the best bindings for magazines are saddle stitch or perfect binding.

High-Quality Graphics – People often look at images before deciding if the information is worth reading. Be sure to pick only high-quality graphics and images. No one will take a second glance at a pixelated image.
