Notebooks are a daily necessity for students, business professionals, writers, contractors and many others. Seeing someone write in their own professionally branded notebook evokes a sense of authority and class that a generic solid-color notebook from the office store just can't match.
Customize your notebook covers with photos, art, your business or school name, or anything else you want. To get started, enter the number of pages you want in your notebook (including printed covers), and select the style of ruled notebook sheets you are looking for.
Lined / Unlined Notebooks
For unlined notebooks, simply upload your cover file with a Job Note to include blank paper inside. Alternatively, you can upload your own custom inside page(s) to be duplicated, or select one of our templates below for line-ruled notebook pages.
Ruled Notebook Options
Our lined notebook sheets come in several formats:
Narrow Ruled Medium/College Ruled Wide/Legal Ruled 4x4 Quad Ruled (Graph Paper) (Examples below are shown with
Bleed Printing )
Notebook Binding Options
Quick facts:
Spiral Binding
— Most popular choice for custom notebooks. Affordable, durable and crush-resistant, spiral bound notebooks lets pages lay flat at any angle.
Wire Binding (wire-o)
— Available as an upgrade for a more polished, professional look. Wire bound notebooks let pages lay flat when fully opened, but binding is not as durable as spiral.
See our full spiral vs. wire-o binding comparison for a closer look at which is right for your project.
Perfect Binding
— Well-suited for composition and sketch books. Pages are glued into the hinged spine of a scored and fold card stock cover.
Spiral Notebooks
Spiral notebooks are extremely durable and customizable. The flexible plastic coils are crush-resistant and allow pages to be turned a full 360° and laid flat, which is perfect for notebooks that will be used in industrial settings or on-the-go. Choose from a wide selection of spiral colors, cover materials and finishing options, which can be viewed in the price calculator.
Wire Bound Notebooks (Wire-O Binding)
For a more polished, professional alternative to our standard spiral binding, choose wire bound notebooks (also called wire-o notebooks). These provide a more rigid, refined look that suits presentation notebooks, journals, and branded corporate notebooks.
Like spiral notebooks, the double-loop metal wire lets pages lay flat when opened, though they do not always lay perfectly flat with pages rotated a full 360°. This is because of how the metal loops clamp closed inside the back cover. Hence, wire-o binding may not be ideal for some uses.
Perfect Bound Notebooks
Perfect binding is a good option for composition notebooks, sketch books and other creative uses.
Saddle Stitched (Stapled) Notebooks
Saddle stitch binding folds the notebook sheets in half, then inserts 2 staples through the folded spine to create a stapled booklet. These can be ordered on the Saddle Stitch Booklet page. Just let us know in the Job Notes if you want to use one of our lined paper templates.

Custom Notebook Printing FAQ What kind of binding is best for custom notebooks?
For most uses, we recommend spiral binding when printing custom notebooks for every day use. While the metal Wire-o binding is very attractive and professional looking, spiral notebooks have several advantages: It's the least expensive notebook binding, as well as the most durable and long lasting. It also lays flat with pages turned 180 degrees or 360 degrees.
Whichever binding method you choose for your custom notebooks, you'll be pleased to find an assortment of binding colors and cover materials to match your theme.
What is a wire bound notebook?
A wire bound notebook, also called a wire-o notebook, uses a double-loop metal wire threaded through punched holes along the spine. It allows pages to open a full 360 degrees and lie mostly flat, unlike glued or stitched notebooks. Wire binding is a popular upgrade from our standard spiral binding for planners, journals, sketch books and branded corporate notebooks.
What's the difference between spiral and wire bound notebooks?
Spiral is our standard, most affordable binding. This uses a continuous plastic coil that's crush-resistant and durable for everyday use. Wire binding is available as an upgrade, using a double-loop metal wire for a more polished, professional appearance. Both allow pages to lay perfectly flat when spread open on a desktop. With pages turned a full 360 degrees, spiral notebooks lay slightly flatter than wire notebooks.
Can I get a custom size notebook?
Absolutely! You'll find a wide range of sizes in the dropdown list. If none of these dimensions work for your custom notebook project, choose the next standard size up and click "Need a Custom Size" to enter your desired dimensions.
Can I order custom notebooks in bulk?
Yes. Custom notebook printing is available in bulk quantities for schools, businesses, and promotional giveaways. Use the price calculator above to select your quantity and see live pricing, including volume discounts at higher page and unit counts.
Can I put my logo on custom notebooks?
Yes. Upload your logo or artwork as a cover file, and it will be printed directly on your custom notebooks. This is a popular option for corporate gifting, promotional events, and branded office supplies.
Can you make graph paper notebooks?
Yes we can. Students, architects and contractors rely on precision-ruled 4x4 quad paper for measuring and calculations every day.
Choose the 4x4 Quad ruled paper option on the dropdown (4 squares per square inch) for custom graphing notebooks.
What kind of paper do custom notebooks use? We recommend 20/50# Bond or 24/60# Text Smooth for most notebooks. If the notebooks will be used for artwork or coloring rather than just writing, consider upgrading to the 28/70# Text Smooth or 32/80# Text Smooth to reduce show-through.
Will I receive a digital proof before you print my notebooks?
In most cases, we do not automatically send a digital proof. If you do want a digital proof first, no problem! Just request this in the Job Notes. The reason for this is that the vast majority of files are setup correctly and require no reformatting or proofing. Most customers also want their job as fast as possible. Unfortunately with email, there is always the risk that the digital proof could end up in the Spam, Junk or Promotions folder, which is more likely to cause a delay in production than it is to stop a misprint from occurring.
But there are some cases in which we must receive proof approval before we can print. This includes:
Files which are not uploaded as JPG, PNG or PDF Any time we make file edits at your request If we happen to notice something that looks "wrong" but aren't sure
