Binding Basics-10 Ways To Showcase Your Documents

A great way for your company to enhance its image is to enhance its written communications. By binding your business proposals, training materials, and marketing plans, you communicate a strong sense of professionalism and organization to your prospective clients and employees.

If you are looking for a way to showcase your documents and improve your image you are going to need to find a way to bind your documents. This article will outline ten popular ways to showcase your presentations.

* Plastic Combs: GBC binding or Combbind is one of the most types of binding, and, not surprisingly, it is also one of the least expensive. Comb spines use 19 rings to bind a typical 11" document. This binding is popular for cookbooks, reference guides, engineering documents and training materials.

* Twin Loop Wire: Wire binding is also known as double-o wire, double loop wire or wire-o binding. The spines for this style start out as a "C" shape which is closed with a special tool called a wire-closer. Wire bindings use either 21 or 32 holes for a typical 11" document.

* Spiral Coil: This type of document finishing is also called ez-coil binding, colorcoil binding, or coilbind. The plastic spirals are spun through the holes on the edge of the paper; the ends of the spines are bent over to keep the coil in place.

* Velobind: Velobinding is a strip-based system using a pair of plastic strips, one on the front and one on the back of the document. A hot knife system rivets the strips together in order to bind the document. This type of system is frequently chosen by those requiring a higher level of document security, such as law offices and governmental agencies.

* Therm-A-Bind: Originally developed by GBC, thermal binding involves using a a preformed cover with a hot melt glue in the spine to bind your documents. Thermal systems are simple to operate. You place the document in the cover, and then place it in the machine. The machine heats up the spine to melt the glue and adhere the pages.

8Unibind: This type of system uses glue and heat like thermal systems do; however, the spines are constructed of steel. Obviously, this provides a very durable bind. Pre-made covers are available, as are the separate steel spines. Unibind makes it easy to bind documents and is very popular for photo albums and scrapbooks. It is also a popular choice for real estate agents and developers who are looking for a high end look for their documents and proposals.

* Proclick: GBC Pro-Click uses the same hole pattern as double loop wire, but provides a different look and feel and allows for easy editing. This style relies on snap shut spines that you open using a zipper tool that is provided with the binding system. This style is an excellent choice for high-use documents and for sales materials requiring frequent updates.

* Zipbind: Similar to Proclick, documents finished with this type of spine are easy to edit. This system works with 19 hole comb bind punched documents (Proclick spines use 32 hole wire bind punched paper). You open and close zip-bind documents using a specialized tool that is included with each pack of supplies. This product provides an ideal complement to a plastic comb system.

* Clear View Ring Binders: Clear view ring binders are a big favorite for correspondence records and training manuals. Clear view binders include clear pockets on the front and spine into which users can insert their own customized cover and spine text and designs. While 3-ring binders lack the professional edge of other document finishing systems, they are quite practical for high-use documents requiring frequent updates.

* Staples: It may seem silly to mention, but staples are, by far, the most common way people bind documents. Staples are functional and work well for simple binding needs; however, staples are probably not the best choice when you're soliciting new clients and need to make a great impression.

What is the best glue to use on a book to repair its spine?

I have a paperback book whose spine is coming loose--that is, the pages are falling away from the spine. Does anyone know of the best type of glue to use to glue the pages back to the spine that will not damage the pages? Specific links to products or name[s] of products is what I am looking for.

Thanks!!

Use something acid free, like something found in the scrapbooking section of a craft store or art store. Acid free means that it won't destroy the pages of the years. Many craft stores have a wide variety of glues, a good brand is ZIG, and the make an acid free glue in a pen that would easily fit into the spine of a book.

The Growing Spine $239 Spinal disorders in very young children may be caused by a variety of conditions. The treatment of such conditions is often challenging due to the age of the patient and the progressive nature of the deformity. There also may be associated problems such as congenital anomalies, respiratory insufficiency, and neurological problems. Depending on the etiology of the deformity, these children are often cared for by multiple specialists including pediatricians, pediatric orthopaedists or orthopaedic spine surgeons, neurologists, pediatric surgeons, pediatric neurosurgeons, oncologists, and/or pulmonologists.Health professionals in all of the mentioned disciplines are involved in the management of these patients, which is why compiling a comprehensive textbook that is not limited to orthopedic specialists is essential. This textbook will effectively help to standardize the care of these patients. Furthermore, other professionals such as nurses, physical therapists and healthcare professionals in training are usually not familiar with these conditions and are in need of a reference book to consult when caring for children with spinal deformities.

Awakening the Spine $33.57 The late Vanda Scaravelli, an early follower of B.K.S. Iyengar and Krishnamurti, endorses a complete integration of body and mind. In three major sections, this volume touches on yoga theory, discusses the postures or asanas, and explains the importance of proper breathing. While Scaravelli does include illustrations and descriptions of the asanas, this book is a discussion of the yoga lifestyle rather than a set of instructions. The experienced yoga student will glean much from the extensive story of stories section, which goes into great detail about Scaravelli's philosophies on yoga, the body, the mind, and how they all relate to one another. The only book this influential teacher published in her long teaching career, AWAKENING THE SPINE adds a unique voice to the yoga canon.
