Frequently Asked Questions (Authors)

What is the minimum run to print a book?

You can print from a single copy. We have no forced minimums. Ideal for physical proofs before a larger run, or for personalized books as special gifts.

What is a “dummy” or physical proof?

A sample copy we produce before your final run. It helps validate size, margins and color so everything matches your expectations. Recommended for first editions.

Can I mix color and black & white interiors?

Yes. Our technology lets you efficiently mix color pages with black text. You pay for color only where needed, optimizing the final cost.

How long does production take?

Typical time: 2–7 days. Usually 3–5 business days after file approval, depending on specifications.

Do you handle ISBN registration?

As an industrial print shop, we focus on manufacturing. ISBN registration is the author’s responsibility, but we leave the exact space for your barcode.

What paper do you recommend for novels?

For interiors: 90g bond for text, or 115g matte coated if you want higher visual quality (for example, full-color content).

Do you ship nationwide?

Yes, we ship across Mexico with Estafeta, DHL and FedEx. Shipments include tracking and insurance. Protective packaging helps keep your books safe in transit.
