Requiring hand work book production

How can you save money when your book production is requiring specialty hand work needs?

What is the term “hand work” in reference to book binding?

Hand work means that human hands are need to complete a project, in other words, the work could not be finished by a machine.

The hand work needs in book finishing  may refer to packaging, die-cutting, shrink wrapping…Generally when human hands are required for a book project it will take longer and workers will need to be compensated, so it’s natural for the cost of the book will increase costs.

Usually, this type of specialty (manual work) is in children’s book printing.  Board book printing is the highest requirement in hand work requests.  Publishers request die-cut the book into a shape, a lift-the-flap books, insert of fuzzy, slick, rough material describing the story line.

These are examples of hand work projects.
