A custom folded photobook from Popecho is a bi-fold booklet printed double-sided on 400gsm coated art paper, finishing at 210×145mm with your choice of matte or holographic starlight laminate. Each unit is sleeved in an OPP bag over a grey board backer, then packed into an air-column bubble bag — stable enough to mail individually or bundle flat inside a larger shipment. Multiple interior layout templates are ready to use directly in Popecho's onsite editor.

File Prep
- Canvas: 216 × 151 mm (2551 × 1783 px at 300 DPI) — Popecho's editor loads this as the live workspace for this variant.
- Finished cut: 210 × 145 mm; bleed is 3 mm on all four sides, filled to the canvas edge.
- Bleed fill: Extend background color or artwork fully to the canvas edge — do not leave white or colored borders, as trimming through them creates a miscut artifact.
- Safe zone: Keep text, faces, and key elements at least 3 mm inside the finished cut line (6 mm from the canvas edge) — the safe-zone overlay snaps into place inside the editor.
- Fold line: The center fold divides front and back panels — avoid placing a single panoramic image across it, as the crease will bisect the composition.
- Color mode: Upload in RGB; CMYK files will have saturation boosted at output, so RGB gives the most accurate on-screen preview.
- File formats: PNG or JPG, maximum 5 MB per upload.
FAQ
