Exhibition edition / pre-publication for the Leipzig Book Fair 2025
Special solutions for book decoration, fore-edge gilding and fore-edge painting, have been used in the printing industry for a long time. The newest procedure is fore-edge printing, which has become increasingly popular these days. These procedures highlight and make the books unique from an aesthetic point of view.
About fore-edge printing
Unlike fore-edge gilding and painting, fore-edge printing is a new, modern technology that allows unique graphics, motifs rich in detail, a painting-like image or even a photo to be printed on the edges of book pages. This creates a special effect when the book is closed, distinguishes the publication, and increases its value.
Advantages
Books with book decoration may be priced higher than their normal counterparts, but the premium effect is worth it. Customers have a demand for books with a unique effect, as a decorated edition can also be a special gift.
