Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main benefit of Express Glue-bound Catalogues?

Speed! Our Express service guarantees a faster turnaround. Confirm your print-ready order by 11 am (UAE time),and your perfect (glue) bound catalogues will be printed and delivered within Dubai/UAE on the 4th business day.

What binding method is used for these express catalogues?

These catalogues use Perfect Binding (also known as glue binding). Pages are securely glued together into the cover, creating a professional, flat spine suitable for thicker documents.

What is the cut-off time to qualify for the express 4-day delivery?

You must confirm your order and upload correct, print-ready artwork by 11:00 am UAE time on a business day. Orders confirmed after this time will likely move to the next business day's production cycle.

Does the express service compromise on print quality?

No, our express service utilizes the same high-quality printing technology and materials as our standard service. The speed comes from prioritized production scheduling, not cutting corners on quality.

What file format and specifications are needed for express orders?

Submit a single, multi-page print-ready PDF file in reading order, using CMYK colour mode and 300 DPI resolution. Ensure fonts are embedded/outlined. Providing correct files by the deadline is crucial for the express schedule.


Are there limitations on size, paper, or page count for the express service?

While popular sizes like A4/A5 and standard paper options are typically available, there might be specific limitations on maximum page count or finishing options for the express service compared to standard. Please check the available options on the product page.


What happens if my artwork has issues or I miss the 11 am deadline?

If artwork requires correction or the deadline is missed, your order will likely be processed under standard turnaround times. We will notify you if artwork issues prevent immediate production.

we will notify you by email, Whatsapp or by phone (for deliveries within Dubai).

Deliveries to all other Emirates are shipped out via courier to arrive the following business day.

Know Before Order

While preparing your data, please take note of the following

CMYK Data
  • Data saved in CMYK colours is the correct format, as printing on paper is done by combining four colour inks: CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black).
PANTONE Data
  • We don’t print Pantone or Spot colours for Large Formate printing. If your data has Pantone or Spot colours, you must convert it to CMYK colours.
  • If above is disregarded, than Spot/ Pantone colours will be converted to CMYK colours. In such case, expect a colour shift in printing
RGB Data
  • Data in RGB colours (primarly used for Monitors, TV Screens and Phones) are not correct colours at all for printing on paper.
  • Make sure your data is created or converted to CMYK, and not RGB. If not, we will change to CMYK colours. In such case, colours may come out different.

Print Arabia will not be held responsible nor reprint orders due to poorly prepared data.

If in doubt please see our Artworking Guidelines for more information on how to prepare your data.

Where colour accuracy is critical, we strongly recommend investing in a printed sample to avoid disappointment.
