Why it matters

A book gets judged before a word is read

Spine alignment, cover finish, how the pages sit when it opens — readers register all of it in the first second, long before the writing gets a chance. Badly bound books fall apart, badly sized spines look amateur, and thin paper shows print from the reverse side. At Abidexpro Printz in Shomolu, we print and bind paperbacks, hardcovers, magazines, exercise books and booklets in-house, so the finishing is controlled by the same people who ran the press.

Binding done in-house

Perfect binding, hardcover, spiral, wire-O and saddle stitch, all under one roof. No sending your job out and waiting.

Spine width calculated for you

The detail self-published authors most often get wrong. We work it out from your page count and paper weight.

Bulk orders delivered

School exercise book runs and full print runs boxed and delivered across Lagos.

Which binding for which page count? Saddle stitch works up to roughly 60 pages — beyond that the fold gets bulky and pages creep. Perfect binding needs at least about 40 pages to give the spine something to glue to. Spiral and wire-O handle anything, and lie flat, which is why manuals and workbooks use them. Tell us your page count and we will say which applies.

Questions

Book printing FAQ

How much does it cost to print a book in Nigeria?+
Book printing is quoted per job because page count, size, paper, binding, cover finish and quantity all change the price significantly. A 60-page saddle-stitched booklet and a 300-page perfect-bound paperback are completely different jobs. Send us your page count and quantity for a firm quote.
What is the minimum order for book printing?+
50 copies. Below that the setup cost dominates and the per-copy price becomes poor value. Per-copy cost falls significantly as quantity rises, which is why most authors print more than they think they need.
What binding options do you offer?+
Perfect binding for paperbacks, hardcover case binding, spiral and wire-O for manuals and workbooks, and saddle stitch for thinner booklets and magazines. We advise on which suits your page count, since very thin books cannot be perfect bound and very thick ones cannot be saddle stitched.
What sizes do you print books in?+
A5 at 148 × 210mm and A4 at 210 × 297mm. A5 is the standard for novels, memoirs and general books. A4 suits manuals, workbooks, reports and magazines.
Do you print school exercise books?+
Yes. We print branded exercise books for schools across Lagos, with your school logo, crest, name lines and page count on the cover. These are typically ordered in bulk before the start of term, so order early to avoid the rush.
How long does book printing take?+
Typically 7 to 14 working days from artwork approval, depending on page count, quantity and binding. Hardcover work takes longer than paperback. Bulk school orders should be placed well before term begins.
Can you design the book cover?+
Yes. Send us your title, author name, back cover text and any images, and our team designs the cover with the correct spine width for your page count. Spine width is the detail most self-published authors get wrong, and it cannot be fixed after printing.
