Most likely, yes! To be sure, it is a good idea to check with your recycling provider for recycling rules specific to your area.

In general, saddle-stitched (stapled) and perfect bound booklets can be thrown into the recycling bin as is, including any staples or glued binding. The glue we use is a polyurethane reactive adhesive so it’s durable and recyclable.

Wire-O bound notebooks can also be recycled, but you should separate the wire from the paper pages before throwing them into your recycling bin.
The pages in your book are compostable, however, the spines use materials that are not. Please remove any staples, glue, or wire and throw them away, before putting pages into your compost pile. We also recommend shedding the pages before adding them to a home compost pile.
Our customer service team is more than happy to answer any additional questions you might have. They can be reached via email at csr@greenerprinter.com or via phone at 1-800-655-5833 Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5:30 pm.
All of our eco-friendly papers will accurately show the color of your magazine, but choosing glossy paper adds a nice shine to images and can help colors appear even more vibrant.
Of course!

You can choose separate papers for the cover and interior pages of your magazine as well.
The most common size for magazines is 8.5x11 inches, however, we can produce magazine in a range of other sizes if you’d prefer.
This depends on your binding methods and what type of inserts or pullouts you want! Please reach out to our customer service team to discuss your options in more detail. They can be reached via email at csr@greenerprinter.com or via phone at 1-800-655-5833 Monday through Friday 9am to 5pm.
With any binding, there is a risk of content near the centerfold getting cut off. We recommend adding a small amount of extra space to the inner margin to ensure that this isn’t an issue. We will contact you prior to production if your designs are at risk of being cut off.
If you’re looking for a way to get your magazine printed, then you’re in the right spot! Greenerprinter can produce as few or as many copies of your magazine as you’d like. You get to fully customize the look of your magazine with our sustainable paper and ink and multiple binding options. All you have to do is make your choices and upload your magazine design.
Commercial magazines typically use thin glossy paper, but you can choose which paper you want from our wide range of recycled paper stocks.
Creating your own magazine can be intimidating. Let’s break it down with these 7 simple steps:

  1. Pick your topic. It can be anything!
  2. Choose your magazine title. Make sure it matches your topic.
  3. Choose your cover article. Every magazine features a specific article on its cover.
  4. Create your body articles. This will be the content of your magazine.
  5. Find images. Magazines are often image heavy, so try to find or take lots of photos related to your topic.
  6. Design your magazine. It’s time to put everything together! Designs can be made in Adobe products like Illustrator or InDesign, Google Docs, Word, and other design and word processing software. Online templates are a great starting place.
  7. Upload your files and place your order with Greenerprinter. You get to choose your paper, binding method, finish, and quantity!

Now you’re ready to show off your beautiful custom printed magazines!
There are no requirements for how many pages a magazine needs. Most magazines feature between 30 and 120 pages.
