Need to know your deadline for submitting your book?
Remember, we are printing and binding the highest quality book you can find. Our hardbound, library quality books are meant to stand the test of time. This exceptionally high quality takes time. Please don’t expect instant results, you will need to be patient and wait a little while to receive your book. Please make sure to give yourself enough time to meet your deadline.
Our weekly deadlines are Friday at midnight. We start printing each new batch of books and they are typically finished and ready to ship by the following Friday. We ask for 10 business days in case we have a technical or printing malfunction. This is so that we have 2 print runs before your book is needed. Delays do not happen often, but they do happen, and there is nothing worse than putting in all that effort and not receiving your book in time.
To determine your Press Deadline, you will want to determine the Friday before your deadline, then go back two weeks. That Friday at midnight will be your deadline. If you submit your file by that day, we can guarantee the book will arrive on time. (If your deadline is around a major holiday where business would be closed or shipping delayed – please contact us to confirm your submission deadline)
In a big rush, or not going to meet your deadline? You can cut the deadline closer, and only allow us one week to print, but it is not 100% guaranteed that the book will arrive in time for your event. We do offer overnight or 2-day shipping to help expedite things. Our fastest turn around would be, if you order on Friday, chose overnight shipping, and there were no delays or printing errors. In this case we could have the book back to you by the next Friday. This is NOT guaranteed, but it is possible.
