Printing: The booklet pages are printed on large sheets, typically with multiple pages per sheet laid out so that they are in the correct order when folded.
Folding: After printing, the sheets are folded in half, known as “signatures.”
Stapling: Metal staples are inserted along the fold line from the outside, securing the sheets together. The number of staples used can vary but typically ranges from two to three depending on the booklet thickness.
Rimming: Once stapled, the other three sides of the booklet may be trimmed to give a clean, even edge.
