Once we receive your files, we will check them free of charge.

Should we find any points that require attention, we will send you a clear overview of the necessary corrections. As soon as you have submitted the updated files, we will check them again.

Once the files are fully approved, you will receive a digital proof. We will only start producing your book after you have given your final approval.


Step 5 – Production

After your approval, the books go into production.

The average production and delivery times are:

📗 Softcover book: approx. 3 weeks

If you choose special materials or luxury finishes, the production time may be longer. Naturally, we will inform you about this beforehand. It is also possible to agree on a custom schedule together in advance.

During production, we will keep you updated on the progress and timeline.

Delivery to multiple addresses is possible. Do you have specific delivery requirements? Please let us know. We are more than happy to accommodate your needs.
