Short Run Book Printing
We are a very special Australia printer - a printer with passion and specialising in short run, high quality book production.
Short run means anywhere between 1 - 500 books, depending on the book type.
What We
Make
Softcover Books
Softcover (or paperback or perfect bound) books are the types of books you would see in a bookshop.
We take great care in binding and sourcing our papers. Suitable for novels, guides, reports, magazines, textbooks, memoirs, children’s book, and other works.
We also happen to be very price competitive for orders from 50 to 500 books.
Hardcover Books
At Aburra Press, we decided that we will make the best hardcover books possible.
Our hardcover books are made the traditional way, section sewn by hand with the spine and joints reinforced with fabrics so the books will last a long time.
Suitable for memoirs, keepsakes, thesis, photobooks, and presentation materials. Quantities between 1-50 books are ideal.

Booklets
Of course we can make booklets too. What’s so hard about stapling books ?
Our saddle stitched booklets are suitable for informal publications and general corporate communications.

Bookmarks
We make bookmarks, although I am not sure about the best size for a bookmark. Should it be thin and short or should it be wide and chunky ?

Design Services
Through a tight design and production feedback loop, we push book production to its creative limits.
We work very closely with our authors to make sure that the final design has that wow factor.
Do you need to use our services ? No, we encourage authors and creators to give it a go themselves. It’s fun!
However, we are ready to provide a professional hand when you need. Note: our pricing is only for customers that also print with us.
-
We charge a pre-press design fee of $55/ph to make files print ready.
Example: We receive one PDF file with all the pages and cover.
We would extract the front and back cover from the PDF file, create a simple spine design, and then add bleed in a design software. This will take between 1 - 2 hours for our designer to do.
