In most cases, for a good balance between the graphic artworks and the text, a 12 page booklet is recommended.

With this option there is (usually) enough space to be creative with the layout, so the text will not be dense and the font size will not have to be too small.

WHY IS PROFESSIONAL PRINT PRODUCTION IMPORTANT 

The print pre-production is a vital part of the design work, as so many things can go wrong in the printing process if not done professionally. This process requires taking multiple factors into account. Here are a few examples: 

 

> Accurate layout

Files need to be built at actual size and use bleed space to eliminate room for errors. If a file is not built correctly, the printing company will have to readjust files (and therefore might charge extra fees) to fit the correct specifications.

> Precise color

You can never trust the colors of a piece being designed on a computer as the actual colors that will turn out once printed.

It's important to know how to set colors for printing (CMYK process colors / RGB / Spot colors and more), otherwise the result will be dramatically different, and when printing in large amounts that can have devastating financial consequences.

> Fonts

If the printing company does not have a font used in the design, and it has not been embedded correctly in the files, the printer may simply choose to substitute the fonts, producing something that is not what you actually approved.

> Suitable image resolution

All images need to be large enough to fit within the assigned space, or it might result in a loss of quality.
