In reintroducing the Biddles brand to the market in 2013 as a book printing management service our aim was to retain the spirit and ethos of the old manufacturing company, best illustrated in our logo strapline making books better business.
Biddles first introduced its printing model Publisher's Choice in 2005 and in doing so transformed the short-run book printing market.
As a book printer at that time we were increasingly dedicated to the needs of the smaller publisher and our staff had an inherent understanding of the challenges and risks associated with the traditional publishing model.

Digital printing via Biddles' award-winning Publishers Choice service gives you all the benefits of the print-on-demand model but at prices you can afford and the quality you want.
Traditional Choice gives you the freedom to move from short-run digital printing to offset litho printing for titles that really take off and need a bigger print run.
There are also more opportunities for matching formats and papers on this service.
Printing with Biddles starts at just 20 copies, which is ideal if you are producing your book as a sample for potential customers or are compiling your autobiography for family and friends.

We give publishers the opportunity to print either digital or offset litho highly illustrated colour books.
Our high-end book printing service is perfectly suited for run lengths from 20 copies up to around 5000 for both paperbacks and hardbacks in any trim size from 148 x 105mm up to A4 landscape and beyond.
Although the digital presses in today's market-place produce extremely high quality products - almost comparable to offset litho printed books - digitally printed books will have a different look and feel to what you might expect from litho production.

For centuries, publishers have wrestled with one simple but crucial question upon which their success often depends: How many copies should we print?
On one hand, the fundamental economics of printing encourage publishers to produce as many copies as possible to achieve better economies of scale and lower per-unit costs.
Meanwhile, the cost of unsold copies can also erode profit margins.
We utilise the best digital book printing technology to allow you to scale down print runs and have all the advantages of the print on demand model without incurring a cost penalty and without compromising quality.

Offset litho book printing is ideal for longer print runs, typically over 500 copies, when it becomes more economic to print using litho presses than digital book printing.
Perhaps you have tested the market with a short run using our digital book printing service and now need to fulfil an order for several thousand copies?
Offset litho also caters for highly specialised book projects where you are looking for that 'special' finish.
These projects are managed by a dedicated customer service project manager who will work with you through every step of your project.
