here are several factors which affect the cost of producing books; the main ones are listed here.

Factors affecting price

		Major factors
		Size of book.
		Number of pages.
		Quantity.
		Type of binding – soft bound (paperback) or case bound (hardback).
		If case bound, does book have a dust jacket?
		Are we designing the book or are you supplying a print ready PDF? There is obviously a cost for us to produce the artwork which you have to weigh up against how professional you want your book to look.
		Both colour or black & white photograph plate pages add to the cost, colour more than black & white.

		Minor factors
		Type of paper used.
		Page margins.
		Type size.
		Typeface used for text. (Different typefaces are slightly different set widths and so will slightly vary the page count.)
