Individual cover design for soft binding
Softcover or soft binding offers students the most design freedom for the cover. As a rule, it is suitable for all academic works where a particular design with different colours and photos is required.
Your customised cover design must be uploaded in the BachelorPrint online shop while placing the order. To upload the design it must be a PDF. The cover will be printed exactly like your PDF, that is why you should be sure that your uploaded design is the right one and that you’re statisfied with the placement of the images and the text.
