#PickUpPitch Campaign Phase II

Pitches,

It has been two weeks since we kicked off the official #PickUpPitch Campaign to find Pitch a new home. We have had some time to think and refocus some things. 

We are now targeting Hulu and Netflix only. We think that MLB network is our longest shot of being picked up by. We also wanted to keep the efforts as simple as possible to garner the MOST participation. 

Today we are pleased to drop the #PickUpPitch postcard that you can mail off to the content managers at Hulu and Netflix. You can email them and we encourage you to do that, but the physical pieces of mail will make the biggest and most lasting impression. PLEASE CONSIDER SENDING A PHYSICAL LETTER OR POSTCARD TO HULU AND NETFLIX. 

We know that you guys spent money on postcards and baseballs last time so we are asking that you send just a few postcards,if you buy them, to Hulu and Netflix. If two is all that you can afford that is MORE than okay. Also, there is no obligation to buy the postcards. They are just something fun and eye catching. .You can also print the baseball cards at home in black & white, but your own stationary or an old fashioned letter works just fine.

 Also, PST does not make any profit off of these just like the other postcards, the price is manufacturing only. 

Don’t know what to say? No worries, Pitches made a template that can be found here that you can use. Just tailor it for the person that you’re writing to! Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!!

Send it to Hulu:

Craig Erwich, Senior VP Head of Content

2500 Broadway Fl 2

Santa Monica, CA 90404

Craig.Erwich@hulu.com

Send it to Netflix:

Ted Sarandos, Chief Content Officer

Netflix Corporate Headquarters

100 Winchester Circle

Los Gatos, CA 95032

tsarandos@netflix.com

Next order of business: Tracking. Tracking. Tracking. Please track what you send so that we have an idea of what’s going out and the impact we’re having. 

Also, please continue to Tweet @Hulu and @Netflix asking them to #PickupPitch. The more noise we make in as many places as possible, the better chances of getting and keeping their attention is. 

IMPORTANT: Metrics matter. Metrics can be the difference between Hulu taking a serious look at us and blowing us off. Watch Pitch on Hulu. Turn it on and run it on mute in the background while you do other things if you have to so that our counter goes up. The more views they see, the more likely our chances of getting them seriously considering picking us up.

Lastly, Pitch showrunner Kevin Falls mentioned in an article that they want to do a closure episode. Listen, we all want a season 2 and that’s what we’re fighting for here but we will take a wrap up episode if it’s what we can get, right? So, let’s remind creator Dan Fogelman (@Dan_Fogelman) and our showrunner Kevin Falls (@KevinFalls) that we still stand by our show by tweeting them support. Don’t harass them, just let them know we are still all in and willing to watch literally anything that contains Ginny Baker. ONE tweet from each of us should be good.

As always, we need all Pitches on deck if we would like to make this a reality. We cannot stress how important it is to participate right now. Every single letter, baseball card, postcard, email, and tweet is SO important. SO! IMPORTANT! We cannot make this happen without everyone on the team doing their part. That’s right - we are a team. A big international team. We need to show these networks just what we’re capable of and we need to work together in order to win this World Series. We can’t expect Hulu or Netflix to take our requests seriously if we don’t put in the effort to show them how serious we are. Every single one of us needs to do at least one of the multiple things we’ve listed. Just one. There are a LOT of us. If each of us just do ONE thing minimum, we will be heard. 

Send your emails, tweet them, but most IMPORTANTLY send those physicals mailings. Let’s do this TOGETHER. Nobody wins alone. We CAN do this. Precedents are being set right now. Let’s set ours. 

We hope to see you guys back on the mound sooner rather than later. If you have a question or concern drop us an ask or tweet!

-PST

Anti-Black bias affects just about everyone. What’s the best way to deal with implicit racism?

Anti-Black bias can even shared by Black people. (Clay Banks via Unsplash/)

In a world where many people actively work to fight against systemic racism and even more claim to be “woke,” the science of implicit bias reveals why most of us still have work to do. Implicit biases are like puppeteers lurking inside our heads, coloring our every action with unconscious stereotyping and prejudice.

Humans begin forming simple mental links in infancy: We learn to associate highchairs with mealtime, parents with comfort, and cribs with naps. Data streams at us from all directions—news reports, television shows, family chats, friendly gossip—and we absorb it all. But this unconscious practice of grouping different words and objects gets more complex as we grow up, and it gives rise to insidious racial biases. Because many of the world’s sources of stimuli, especially television news reports, present Black people as criminals or threatening characters, our brains naturally begin to make an all-too-common connection—Black people and danger go together.

These biases quietly and unconsciously influence our actions throughout our lives, even as some of us actively protest against racism and discrimination. Implicit biases can be just as dangerous as consciously, actively demonstrated acts of racism, such as using slurs or attacking Black people, and they’re much more insidious. In a chilling 2002 study, randomly selected participants played a video game that featured photographs of white and Black individuals holding either a gun or another object (a wallet, soda can, or cell phone). Subjects were told to decide, as quickly as possible, whether or not to shoot the character. Consistent with earlier studies, nearly everyone made the “correct” decision to shoot at an armed Black individual more often than a white individual.

Various studies, including one conducted in 2018, confirm that Black people carry the same bias. Subjects identified dangerous objects, such as guns, much faster after viewing a Black face compared to a face with both Black and white features. These snappy, adrenaline-driven responses arise from reflexive, unconscious thought processes rather than deliberate, careful reflections.

Implicit biases can weigh BIPOC down every day—and destroy their lives in an instant. Researchers are working to understand how these insidious stereotypes drive our behavior, and how we might learn to shake them off.

The origins of implicit bias

We can trace the origins of implicit bias—or at least our cultural awareness of it—back to a thick manila envelope sitting in a P.O. Box in New Haven in 1990. Mahzarin Banaji, then a graduate student in psychology at Yale University, had always been fascinated by the idea of implicit memory—past experiences that we’re not consciously aware of, but that still manage to control our actions. When Banaji came across famous cognitive psychologist Larry Jacoby’s study on the subject, she decided to replicate the experiments for herself.

The simple and elegant study, “Becoming Famous Overnight,” was published in 1989. First, the subject reads through a list of names pulled from a phone book, such as Sebastian Weisdorf—these names are designated as “old not-famous.” The next day, the subject goes through a new list with three types of names: the old not-famous names, new not-famous names (like Andrew Ringren), and famous names (like Wayne Gretzky, a then-well-known hockey player from Canada). The subject then sorts the names into two piles—famous and not-famous. Sorting errors arose almost exclusively from old not-famous names, which subjects mistakenly sorted into the famous pile, thus confirming Jacoby’s hypothesis of implicit memory. Memories have a texture to them, and the inexplicable familiarity of the name Sebastian Weisdorf caused confusion, guiding subjects to mark them as belonging to celebrities.

A year after the study’s publication, Banaji wrote a postcard to Jacoby asking for the data, and soon enough, a manila envelope appeared in her mailbox. When she rifled through the pages, she found something puzzling—all the names were male. Banaji repeated the experiment using a mix of names and discovered that non-famous females didn’t tend to follow Jacoby’s hypothesis: Sally Weisdorf didn’t become famous overnight like Sebastian Weisdorf did.

Banaji began chatting with subjects after the tests were finished, asking them if they considered gender while sorting. Had they been making the conscious decision that vaguely familiar men were more likely to be celebrities than vaguely familiar women were? Each insisted that sexism had nothing to do with their selection process. “There was a complete lack of awareness that they were relying on gender,” Banaji says. “That was the moment for me when the light bulb went off.”

Perhaps, she thought, this unconscious reaction could help us understand the nuances of how the human mind categorizes the world.

In the next few years, Banaji and two other researchers at Yale, Tony Greenwald and Brian Nosek, banded together to develop a series of tests to measure what they began to call implicit social cognition, something that deeply impacts our social attitudes, behavior, and perceptions. The Implicit Attitude Tests, or IATs, were first published on Yale’s website in September 1988, and measure the strength of associations between different concepts (black faces, white faces) and evaluations (good, bad) by asking the user to categorize certain words and images, and measuring the response time for users to group certain stimuli together. The test went viral, especially after it was featured on Oprah. The researchers ended the month with 45,000 results to parse through.

Over time, Banaji and her team created variations of the original IAT, including tests that measure bias against disabilities, sexuality, certain ethnicities, weight, gender, skin tone, and much more. The true value of the test, however, lies in the two-decade aggregation of implicit bias data, which has proven to be a goldmine for psychologists studying this phenomenon. By tracing the arc of these scores over time, especially during the Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ+ movements, scientists are attempting to crack open the phenomenon—and find out how to fix it.

Mass movements can shift biases—slowly

In a 2018 study, Jeremy Sawyer, a professor of behavioral science at Kingsborough Community College, looked at implicit bias data collected from 2009 to 2016. He wanted to see how results had changed during Barack Obama’s presidency, and the rise of Black Lives Matter after the killing of Trayvon Martin in 2012.

Many had hoped that anti-Black racism would decrease with Obama’s inauguration. Previous studies had indicated that bias decreases momentarily after subjects are shown images of highly respected Black figures such as Obama, Nelson Mandela, and Martin Luther King Jr. But Sawyer found that at a society-wide level, the exact opposite occurred: From 2009 to 2013, anti-Black bias slightly increased among white and Black populations.

The trend only started to reverse when the Black Lives Matter movement arose in 2013, following the acquittal of George Zimmerman for the murder of Trayvon Martin. Sawyer and his co-authors took this as a sign that mass movements can shift deeply ingrained prejudice.

He took a closer look by pinpointing six pivotal moments in the movement: uprisings following the killings of Michael Brown, Eric Garner, and Freddie Gray, the shooting at a Black church in Charleston, the Democratic National Convention’s resolution on Black Lives Matter in 2015, and the shooting of anti-police-brutality protesters in 2015. After each of these events, the IAT data set showed, racial bias against the Black community decreased across all political lines—including conservatives.

“There’s hope in social movements like Black Lives Matter,” says Sawyer. “A mass social movement involves many people across the country and chips away at structural racism.”

While racial and sexual bias has seen a slight downtrend over the last decade, other biases have not followed suit. Anti-age and disability have stayed relatively stable, while anti-body weight bias has steadily gotten worse since 2008 (see the graph below). “The biases where we’ve seen mass movements, around BLM and LGBTQ marriage equality—those have gotten better,” says Sawyer. “We haven’t seen recent movements around disability rights or anti-ageism or body size related movements. We should be trying to build those and support those as a society.”

When asked about movements causing political backlash, especially when protests sometimes lead to violence and unrest, Sawyer says, “Despite certain political forces branding movements as violent or changing the narrative to be all about looting and so forth, massive rebellions and uprising seem to work. Not only do they decrease people’s biases, but they often win political results.” For example, the Civil Rights and Black Power movements absorbed harsh criticism from the opposing side, but pulled out victories in law-enforced school desegregation and the legal dismantling of Jim Crow laws in the South (although some of these institutions still exist in different forms today). “Movements do really change biases,” says Sawyer.

How to face down your own implicit bias

In The New Jim Crow, author Michelle Alexander emphasizes that this type of discrimination “reflect[s] automatic, unconscious thought processes, not careful deliberations.”

To successfully manage your own implicit bias, says Jennifer Eberhardt, a professor of psychology at Stanford University, you must slow down and think carefully. “There are certain conditions under which we become more vulnerable to it: when we’re thinking fast and moving fast,” Eberhardt told Time in 2019. “We can slow down and make a shift so we’re less likely to act on bias.”

Nextdoor.com, a virtual neighborhood hub that contains community posts on everything from babysitter requests to warnings about suspicious activity, has tried to implement this strategy to minimize prejudicial posts. In 2015, Nextdoor.com decided to work with Eberhardt and various other nonprofits to fight against the influx of racially influenced comments. When a user writes a review, perhaps describing a Black man as “suspicious,” they must answer a series of questions, such as “ask yourself—is what I saw actually suspicious, especially if I take race or ethnicity out of the equation?” before posting the review. When a user references a contractors’ race in a review, further questions dig for more distinctive characteristics instead. Nextdoor.com staff also incorporated a racial profiling flag beside each review. These initiatives caused a 75 percent reduction in racially influenced comments and reviews over the 110,000 local networks hosted by Nextdoor.com, according to founder Nirav Tolia.

The practice of slowing down and practicing deliberate thought processes may sound more like a suppression of your implicit bias than a way to make it go away, but ensuring that you’re not letting prejudice rule your actions is the first—and most effective—step.

There’s no instant, foolproof way to make implicit bias go away completely, but self awareness and education are key to making that mental shift happen. Research shows that implicit biases arise from the daily barrage of information that crowds our eyes and ears—so by harnessing control over this data flood, you can slowly but surely alter your mindset. Consistently surrounding yourself with diverse perspectives by reading the writings of Black people and watching movies starring non-white protagonists, as well as staying aware of how news media may enforce certain biases, can help you neutralize your subconscious racism.

Banaji’s next project involves a self-education series in the form of study modules, articles, podcasts, and graphics posted on a website called Outsmarting Human Minds. She hopes to transform this website into a full-fledged course for use at schools and companies.

Reflecting on unconscious bias is inherently difficult and disturbing for people who don’t consider themselves to be racist. But our subconscious minds won’t change without some very conscious effort. You can actively work to help others overcome their implicit bias, too: Sawyer’s research on the impact of the Black Lives Matter movement shows just how much progress can be made in amplifying Black voices and causes.

“These experiences will change people,” says Banaji. “A white kid who marches in protest and watches the power structure unfold in real time will not be the same.”

Arranging Pages on Catalog Design For Printers

A Guide to Preparing and Arranging Pages for Online Catalog Design For Printing Project

The proper arrangement of papers while printing books and catalog design is very important. The improper paper arrangement will lead to spreading wrong information. It will also confuse readers and make them comprehend the wrong meaning. This is more important for storybooks. When the papers are printed in the wrong order, readers lose track from the original story. They will not only get confused but fail to understand what’s wrong. In general, the pace of the story gets ruined easily.

Unlike a storybook, it is important to maintain proper paper arrangement in catalogs too. catalogs are a great way to communicate information in short. catalogs are often used in the form of user manuals or guide books. They are small, handy and user-friendly. The new digital marketing trends may not always be of your time or money. Sometimes it is simply better to stick to the true traditional concepts of advertising. And when you talk of true traditional methods, catalogs are one of the best traditional marketing methods.

What is Online Catalog Design For Printing Projects?

The modern digital marketing methods can use different tools and channels for advertisement. But the majority of these modern marketing concepts is not tangible and remains attractive to the eyes. Customers cannot touch or feel it. The tangible marketing materials have always been considered as a major hallmark for most companies. Booklets are tangible materials and have been used as a standard advertisement tool for decades

In simple terms, the catalog is a printed publication with not many pages. It is essentially used to communicate information but in brief. A booklet can have 20 to 80 pages and it can be used in any field. In the last few years, catalogs have proved its efficiency by reaching many customers. With this business can reach customers with the exact message they want to give them.

What sets a Catalogs Apart?

In the age full of digitally planned strategies what is the importance of catalogs? Perhaps, you might be wondering this in your mind. Well, the format is itself attractive to gain serious customer attention. A booklet comes with enough space to carry out flawless communication with customers. You do not need to overwhelm the readers with a lot of information. You have the liberty to design it with texts, graphics, images or anything else. A booklet can include various kinds of information. Whether you are describing a company using it for promoting products, booklets are just fine with everything.

How to Create a Great Catalog Design?

Designing and printing a booklet is all about proper planning and implementing. Ensure proper balancing of text and images. Since booklets are speaking on behalf of your product or brand, make it interactive. You don’t want to make the catalog monotonous right? It is not enough to give appropriate information only.

To make the catalog interactive, add colors to it. Make use of interesting graphics and images for better illustration. When designed properly a booklet can prove to be a perfect marketing solution for any business. Just like posters and postcards, booklets also come in different sizes. You can make a pocket booklet or prepare a big book type booklet. As long as the information is error-free and arranged properly, everything makes sense.

How to arrange Catalog Pages?

A booklet printing project is managed in different methods. There are various ways to arrange the pages in a catalog. It all depends on how the final product will look like. When you are getting in the area, you will come across two-page arranging procedures. One is the “Readers spreads” and the others is “Printer Spreads”. Not always will you get individual page numbers to arrange pages in proper order? Moreover, the chances of improper arrangement remain. Keep reading to know how you can arrange a catalog design easily and systematically.

Readers Spreads

The printers order is different from the reader’s order. This means the common order in which a reader is reading a book is page 1, page 2, page 3 and so on. But this is not necessarily the same order in which the book was originally printed. Precisely, the pages in a catalog are printed without following a particular order.

Printers Spreads (During the Catalog Design)

The same catalog when it comes to the printing process changes its order of printing. It is printed completely in a different order than which the readers read. For example, when readers are reading it in the order Page 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on, the printing format can be different. The printing order is likely to be Page 8, page 1, page 2, page 7, page 6, page 3 and so on. This format of printing the pages of the booklet is known as printers spread.

Difference Between Readers Spread and Printers Spread

The readers spread is not the format in which the booklet is printed. However, it is still important to maintain the order. Once the catalog is printed this order will be taken to reference. You may think that the pages are not printed in particular order. They are arranged later in a separate process. But when you look carefully, you will see that the pages are in order, only if you consider the page as a whole. We will discuss this with an example in the next subhead.

A reader’s spread is created for the convenience of the readers. It is also the format that most people commonly believe it to be printed. But the booklet is printed in the printer spread format. It is very different from the readers spread. You will not find the pages organized in the correct numerical order. However, they are organized in a way that will just fall in the correct order when the catalog design goes through the binding process.

Printer Spread with Example

If you are unable to understand the page arrangement in a printer spread, this example below will help you understand the process easily. Take a sheet of paper and place it on a table. Now take another sheet and place it on top of the first sheet.

The next step is to fold both the sheets from the middle and. Right now you can see that you have a total eight sides. Starting from the cover page, mark each side form 1 to 8. When you are done with this, you will notice that Page 1 is linked directly to page 8 on the reverse side. Similarly, page 2 is together with page 7, page 6 is with page 3 and page 4 is with page 5.

The only pages that you may notice to be printed in the correct order are page 4 and 5. The entire process happens because each page is divided into two parts. So when one particular page is getting printed, it is printing two separate pages.

Do all printers print this way?

Now the common question that will come in everyone’s mind is whether this is the only available printing way. To answer that, there are other ways too. But this is the most commonly used format and most printers are okay with the format too. However, some printers work with a completely different format and compatibility.

Linear Page Organization

Apart from the printer spread, most printers use another method known as linear page organization. Most printers use this method to save time and speed up the process. Although this is not the actual process they still use it. In this process, the pages are arranged in an organized numerical format. It helps the printers to keep a clear idea of identifying the pages as per the needs. Once the printing is done, the pages are organized in the original format. When there are huge orders for catalog design separately, the process is often put into use.

This process is often followed when booklets are being printed in the off-set printers instead of the copier machines. The printing concept of off-set printers is completely different. But in general, organizing the paper in the linear format is easy for the printer. When you provide a printer with a 2-page design catalog they can find it difficult to comprehend it at first.

This method, however, has a disadvantage. It is good to use it with a catalog that does not have a lot of pages. You can take each page individually and then manage it later. But when you are working with a booklet with too many pages, it gets difficult to manage each page in separate files. Hence to avoid this inconvenience, most printers use PDF format. Using PDF gives the printer flexibility to handle too many pages in a single file. Moreover, the option will allow them to customize the document. They can arrange the margins and borders to meet the printing scales accurately.

Page Arrangement with Imposition Method

Booklet paper arrangement with the Imposition method is the least popular of all methods. Most printers will avoid this method. It is because the process can make the paper arrangement more confusing and complicated. This method is not appropriate or convenient for beginners. Expert printers can use this method to accomplish a good catalog design. The imposition process involves printing arrangement before its printing. When the printing is done and the pages are folded, bound and trimmed, they automatically fall in the correct page order.

How to distinguish Front and Rear cover pages to the Printer?

To help printers understand better, many clients choose to send the form cover page and rear cover page in separate files. Sometimes this is unnecessary. The most saddle-stitched catalog design comes with the front and rear covers in separate bounds. They are thicker than the normal pages within the booklet. This gives the catalogs a better presentation and steadiness to handle. It also makes the booklet more durable.

But when you are submitting a file to the printer, you should follow certain instructions to make it clear for the printer to understand your needs. So if you want to opt for a self-cover book you do not need to provide the printer with separate files. It’s because the cover page and inner pages are to remain the same. This can also confuse printers. But if you want to get thick outer covers, it is a good idea to provide the printer with separate files for the cover and rear pages.

Arranging catalogs design with the printer spread format is the most commonly used method. It is easy, fast and convenient. So next time you want to get a booklet printed, arrange the papers in the printer spread unless the printer asks you for some other method.

They are small, handy and user-friendly. The new digital marketing trends may not always be of your time or money. Sometimes it is simply better to stick to the true traditional concepts of advertising. And when you talk of true traditional methods, catalogs are one of the best traditional marketing methods.

What is Online Catalog Design For Printing Projects?

The modern digital marketing methods can use different tools and channels for advertisement. But the majority of these modern marketing concepts is not tangible and remains attractive to the eyes. Customers cannot touch or feel it. The tangible marketing materials have always been considered as a major hallmark for most companies. Booklets are tangible materials and have been used as a standard advertisement tool for decades

In simple terms, the catalog is a printed publication with not many pages. It is essentially used to communicate information but in brief. A booklet can have 20 to 80 pages and it can be used in any field. In the last few years, catalogs have proved its efficiency by reaching many customers. With this business can reach customers with the exact message they want to give them.

What sets a Catalogs Apart?

Well, the format is itself attractive to gain serious customer attention. A booklet comes with enough space to carry out flawless communication with customers. You do not need to overwhelm the readers with a lot of information. You have the liberty to design it with texts, graphics, images or anything else. A booklet can include various kinds of information. Whether you are describing a company using it for promoting products, booklets are just fine with everything.

How to Create a Great Catalog Design?

Designing and printing a booklet is all about proper planning and implementing. Ensure proper balancing of text and images. Since booklets are speaking on behalf of your product or brand, make it interactive. You don’t want to make the catalog monotonous right? It is not enough to give appropriate information only.

To make the catalog interactive, add colors to it. Make use of interesting graphics and images for better illustration. When designed properly a booklet can prove to be a perfect marketing solution for any business. Just like posters and postcards, booklets also come in different sizes. You can make a pocket booklet or prepare a big book type booklet. As long as the information is error-free and arranged properly, everything makes sense.

How to arrange Catalog Pages?

A booklet printing project is managed in different methods. There are various ways to arrange the pages in a catalog. It all depends on how the final product will look like. When you are getting in the area, you will come across two-page arranging procedures. One is the “Readers spreads” and the others is “Printer Spreads”. Not always will you get individual page numbers to arrange pages in proper order? Moreover, the chances of improper arrangement remain. Keep reading to know how you can arrange a catalog design easily and systematically.

Readers Spreads

The printers order is different from the reader’s order. This means the common order in which a reader is reading a book is page 1, page 2, page 3 and so on. But this is not necessarily the same order in which the book was originally printed. Precisely, the pages in a catalog are printed without following a particular order.

Printers Spreads (During the Catalog Design)

The same catalog when it comes to the printing process changes its order of printing. It is printed completely in a different order than which the readers read. For example, when readers are reading it in the order Page 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on, the printing format can be different. The printing order is likely to be Page 8, page 1, page 2, page 7, page 6, page 3 and so on. This format of printing the pages of the booklet is known as printers spread.

Difference Between Readers Spread and Printers Spread

The readers spread is not the format in which the booklet is printed. However, it is still important to maintain the order. Once the catalog is printed this order will be taken to reference. You may think that the pages are not printed in particular order. They are arranged later in a separate process. But when you look carefully, you will see that the pages are in order, only if you consider the page as a whole. We will discuss this with an example in the next subhead.

A reader’s spread is created for the convenience of the readers. It is also the format that most people commonly believe it to be printed. But the booklet is printed in the printer spread format. It is very different from the readers spread. You will not find the pages organized in the correct numerical order. However, they are organized in a way that will just fall in the correct order when the catalog design goes through the binding process.

Printer Spread with Example

If you are unable to understand the page arrangement in a printer spread, this example below will help you understand the process easily. Take a sheet of paper and place it on a table. Now take another sheet and place it on top of the first sheet.

The next step is to fold both the sheets from the middle and. Right now you can see that you have a total eight sides. Starting from the cover page, mark each side form 1 to 8. When you are done with this, you will notice that Page 1 is linked directly to page 8 on the reverse side. Similarly, page 2 is together with page 7, page 6 is with page 3 and page 4 is with page 5.

The only pages that you may notice to be printed in the correct order are page 4 and 5. The entire process happens because each page is divided into two parts. So when one particular page is getting printed, it is printing two separate pages.

Do all printers print this way?

Now the common question that will come in everyone’s mind is whether this is the only available printing way. To answer that, there are other ways too. But this is the most commonly used format and most printers are okay with the format too. However, some printers work with a completely different format and compatibility.

Linear Page Organization

Apart from the printer spread, most printers use another method known as linear page organization. Most printers use this method to save time and speed up the process. Although this is not the actual process they still use it. In this process, the pages are arranged in an organized numerical format. It helps the printers to keep a clear idea of identifying the pages as per the needs. Once the printing is done, the pages are organized in the original format. When there are huge orders for catalog design separately, the process is often put into use.

This process is often followed when booklets are being printed in the off-set printers instead of the copier machines. The printing concept of off-set printers is completely different.

How to arrange Catalog Pages?

A booklet printing project is managed in different methods. There are various ways to arrange the pages in a catalog. It all depends on how the final product will look like. When you are getting in the area, you will come across two-page arranging procedures. One is the “Readers spreads” and the others is “Printer Spreads”. Not always will you get individual page numbers to arrange pages in proper order? Moreover, the chances of improper arrangement remain. Keep reading to know how you can arrange a catalog design easily and systematically.

Readers Spreads

The printers order is different from the reader’s order. This means the common order in which a reader is reading a book is page 1, page 2, page 3 and so on. But this is not necessarily the same order in which the book was originally printed. Precisely, the pages in a catalog are printed without following a particular order.

Printers Spreads (During the Catalog Design)

The same catalog when it comes to the printing process changes its order of printing. It is printed completely in a different order than which the readers read. For example, when readers are reading it in the order Page 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on, the printing format can be different. The printing order is likely to be Page 8, page 1, page 2, page 7, page 6, page 3 and so on. This format of printing the pages of the booklet is known as printers spread.

Difference Between Readers Spread and Printers Spread

The readers spread is not the format in which the booklet is printed. However, it is still important to maintain the order. Once the catalog is printed this order will be taken to reference. You may think that the pages are not printed in particular order. They are arranged later in a separate process. But when you look carefully, you will see that the pages are in order, only if you consider the page as a whole. We will discuss this with an example in the next subhead.

A reader’s spread is created for the convenience of the readers. It is also the format that most people commonly believe it to be printed. But the booklet is printed in the printer spread format. It is very different from the readers spread. You will not find the pages organized in the correct numerical order. However, they are organized in a way that will just fall in the correct order when the catalog design goes through the binding process.

Printer Spread with Example

If you are unable to understand the page arrangement in a printer spread, this example below will help you understand the process easily. Take a sheet of paper and place it on a table. Now take another sheet and place it on top of the first sheet.

The next step is to fold both the sheets from the middle and. Right now you can see that you have a total eight sides. Starting from the cover page, mark each side form 1 to 8. When you are done with this, you will notice that Page 1 is linked directly to page 8 on the reverse side. Similarly, page 2 is together with page 7, page 6 is with page 3 and page 4 is with page 5.

The only pages that you may notice to be printed in the correct order are page 4 and 5. The entire process happens because each page is divided into two parts. So when one particular page is getting printed, it is printing two separate pages.

Do all printers print this way?

Now the common question that will come in everyone’s mind is whether this is the only available printing way. To answer that, there are other ways too. But this is the most commonly used format and most printers are okay with the format too. However, some printers work with a completely different format and compatibility.

Linear Page Organization

Apart from the printer spread, most printers use another method known as linear page organization. Most printers use this method to save time and speed up the process. Although this is not the actual process they still use it. In this process, the pages are arranged in an organized numerical format. It helps the printers to keep a clear idea of identifying the pages as per the needs. Once the printing is done, the pages are organized in the original format. When there are huge orders for catalog design separately, the process is often put into use.

This process is often followed when booklets are being printed in the off-set printers instead of the copier machines. The printing concept of off-set printers is completely different. But in general, organizing the paper in the linear format is easy for the printer. When you provide a printer with a 2-page design catalog they can find it difficult to comprehend it at first.

This method, however, has a disadvantage. It is good to use it with a catalog that does not have a lot of pages. You can take each page individually and then manage it later. But when you are working with a booklet with too many pages, it gets difficult to manage each page in separate files. Hence to avoid this inconvenience, most printers use PDF format. Using PDF gives the printer flexibility to handle too many pages in a single file. Moreover, the option will allow them to customize the document. They can arrange the margins and borders to meet the printing scales accurately.

Page Arrangement with Imposition Method

Booklet paper arrangement with the Imposition method is the least popular of all methods. Most printers will avoid this method. It is because the process can make the paper arrangement more confusing and complicated. This method is not appropriate or convenient for beginners. Expert printers can use this method to accomplish a good catalog design. The imposition process involves printing arrangement before its printing. When the printing is done and the pages are folded, bound and trimmed, they automatically fall in the correct page order.

How to distinguish Front and Rear cover pages to the Printer?

To help printers understand better, many clients choose to send the form cover page and rear cover page in separate files. Sometimes this is unnecessary. The most saddle-stitched catalog design comes with the front and rear covers in separate bounds. They are thicker than the normal pages within the booklet. This gives the catalogs a better presentation and steadiness to handle. It also makes the booklet more durable.

But when you are submitting a file to the printer, you should follow certain instructions to make it clear for the printer to understand your needs. So if you want to opt for a self-cover book you do not need to provide the printer with separate files. It’s because the cover page and inner pages are to remain the same. This can also confuse printers. But if you want to get thick outer covers, it is a good idea to provide the printer with separate files for the cover and rear pages.

Arranging catalogs design with the printer spread format is the most commonly used method. It is easy, fast and convenient. So next time you want to get a booklet printed, arrange the papers in the printer spread unless the printer asks you for some other method.

However, they are organized in a way that will just fall in the correct order when the catalog design goes through the binding process.

Printer Spread with Example

If you are unable to understand the page arrangement in a printer spread, this example below will help you understand the process easily. Take a sheet of paper and place it on a table. Now take another sheet and place it on top of the first sheet.

The next step is to fold both the sheets from the middle and. Right now you can see that you have a total eight sides. Starting from the cover page, mark each side form 1 to 8. When you are done with this, you will notice that Page 1 is linked directly to page 8 on the reverse side. Similarly, page 2 is together with page 7, page 6 is with page 3 and page 4 is with page 5.

The only pages that you may notice to be printed in the correct order are page 4 and 5. The entire process happens because each page is divided into two parts. So when one particular page is getting printed, it is printing two separate pages.

Do all printers print this way?

Now the common question that will come in everyone’s mind is whether this is the only available printing way. To answer that, there are other ways too. But this is the most commonly used format and most printers are okay with the format too. However, some printers work with a completely different format and compatibility.

Linear Page Organization

 Apart from the printer spread, most printers use another method known as linear page organization. Most printers use this method to save time and speed up the process. Although this is not the actual process they still use it. In this process, the pages are arranged in an organized numerical format. It helps the printers to keep a clear idea of identifying the pages as per the needs. Once the printing is done, the pages are organized in the original format. When there are huge orders for catalog design separately, the process is often put into use.

This process is often followed when booklets are being printed in the off-set printers instead of the copier machines. The printing concept of off-set printers is completely different. But in general, organizing the paper in the linear format is easy for the printer. When you provide a printer with a 2-page design catalog they can find it difficult to comprehend it at first.

This method, however, has a disadvantage. It is good to use it with a catalog that does not have a lot of pages. You can take each page individually and then manage it later. But when you are working with a booklet with too many pages, it gets difficult to manage each page in separate files. Hence to avoid this inconvenience, most printers use PDF format. Using PDF gives the printer flexibility to handle too many pages in a single file. Moreover, the option will allow them to customize the document. They can arrange the margins and borders to meet the printing scales accurately.

Page Arrangement with Imposition Method

 Booklet paper arrangement with the Imposition method is the least popular of all methods. Most printers will avoid this method. It is because the process can make the paper arrangement more confusing and complicated. This method is not appropriate or convenient for beginners. Expert printers can use this method to accomplish a good catalog design. The imposition process involves printing arrangement before its printing. When the printing is done and the pages are folded, bound and trimmed, they automatically fall in the correct page order.

How to distinguish Front and Rear cover pages to the Printer?

To help printers understand better, many clients choose to send the form cover page and rear cover page in separate files. Sometimes this is unnecessary. The most saddle-stitched catalog design comes with the front and rear covers in separate bounds. They are thicker than the normal pages within the booklet. This gives the catalogs a better presentation and steadiness to handle. It also makes the booklet more durable.

But when you are submitting a file to the printer, you should follow certain instructions to make it clear for the printer to understand your needs. So if you want to opt for a self-cover book you do not need to provide the printer with separate files. It’s because the cover page and inner pages are to remain the same. This can also confuse printers. But if you want to get thick outer covers, it is a good idea to provide the printer with separate files for the cover and rear pages.

Arranging catalogs design with the printer spread format is the most commonly used method. It is easy, fast and convenient. So next time you want to get a booklet printed, arrange the papers in the printer spread unless the printer asks you for some other method.

How to arrange Catalog Pages?

 A booklet printing project is managed in different methods. There are various ways to arrange the pages in a catalog. It all depends on how the final product will look like. When you are getting in the area, you will come across two-page arranging procedures. One is the “Readers spreads” and the others is “Printer Spreads”. Not always will you get individual page numbers to arrange pages in proper order? Moreover, the chances of improper arrangement remain. Keep reading to know how you can arrange a catalog design easily and systematically.

Readers Spreads

The printers order is different from the reader’s order. This means the common order in which a reader is reading a book is page 1, page 2, page 3 and so on. But this is not necessarily the same order in which the book was originally printed. Precisely, the pages in a catalog are printed without following a particular order.

Printers Spreads (During the Catalog Design)

 The same catalog when it comes to the printing process changes its order of printing. It is printed completely in a different order than which the readers read. For example, when readers are reading it in the order Page 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on, the printing format can be different. The printing order is likely to be Page 8, page 1, page 2, page 7, page 6, page 3 and so on. This format of printing the pages of the booklet is known as printers spread.

Difference Between Readers Spread and Printers Spread

The readers spread is not the format in which the booklet is printed. However, it is still important to maintain the order. Once the catalog is printed this order will be taken to reference. You may think that the pages are not printed in particular order. They are arranged later in a separate process. But when you look carefully, you will see that the pages are in order, only if you consider the page as a whole. We will discuss this with an example in the next subhead.

A reader’s spread is created for the convenience of the readers. It is also the format that most people commonly believe it to be printed. But the booklet is printed in the printer spread format. It is very different from the readers spread. You will not find the pages organized in the correct numerical order. However, they are organized in a way that will just fall in the correct order when the catalog design goes through the binding process.

Printer Spread with Example

If you are unable to understand the page arrangement in a printer spread, this example below will help you understand the process easily. Take a sheet of paper and place it on a table. Now take another sheet and place it on top of the first sheet.

The next step is to fold both the sheets from the middle and. Right now you can see that you have a total eight sides. Starting from the cover page, mark each side form 1 to 8. When you are done with this, you will notice that Page 1 is linked directly to page 8 on the reverse side. Similarly, page 2 is together with page 7, page 6 is with page 3 and page 4 is with page 5.

The only pages that you may notice to be printed in the correct order are page 4 and 5. The entire process happens because each page is divided into two parts. So when one particular page is getting printed, it is printing two separate pages.

Do all printers print this way?

Now the common question that will come in everyone’s mind is whether this is the only available printing way. To answer that, there are other ways too. But this is the most commonly used format and most printers are okay with the format too. However, some printers work with a completely different format and compatibility.

Linear Page Organization

 Apart from the printer spread, most printers use another method known as linear page organization. Most printers use this method to save time and speed up the process. Although this is not the actual process they still use it. In this process, the pages are arranged in an organized numerical format. It helps the printers to keep a clear idea of identifying the pages as per the needs. Once the printing is done, the pages are organized in the original format. When there are huge orders for catalog design separately, the process is often put into use.

This process is often followed when booklets are being printed in the off-set printers instead of the copier machines. The printing concept of off-set printers is completely different. But in general, organizing the paper in the linear format is easy for the printer. When you provide a printer with a 2-page design catalog they can find it difficult to comprehend it at first.

This method, however, has a disadvantage. It is good to use it with a catalog that does not have a lot of pages. You can take each page individually and then manage it later. But when you are working with a booklet with too many pages, it gets difficult to manage each page in separate files. Hence to avoid this inconvenience, most printers use PDF format. Using PDF gives the printer flexibility to handle too many pages in a single file. Moreover, the option will allow them to customize the document. They can arrange the margins and borders to meet the printing scales accurately.

Page Arrangement with Imposition Method

 Booklet paper arrangement with the Imposition method is the least popular of all methods. Most printers will avoid this method. It is because the process can make the paper arrangement more confusing and complicated. This method is not appropriate or convenient for beginners. Expert printers can use this method to accomplish a good catalog design. The imposition process involves printing arrangement before its printing. When the printing is done and the pages are folded, bound and trimmed, they automatically fall in the correct page order.

How to distinguish Front and Rear cover pages to the Printer?

To help printers understand better, many clients choose to send the form cover page and rear cover page in separate files. Sometimes this is unnecessary. The most saddle-stitched catalog design comes with the front and rear covers in separate bounds. They are thicker than the normal pages within the booklet. This gives the catalogs a better presentation and steadiness to handle. It also makes the booklet more durable.

But when you are submitting a file to the printer, you should follow certain instructions to make it clear for the printer to understand your needs. So if you want to opt for a self-cover book you do not need to provide the printer with separate files. It’s because the cover page and inner pages are to remain the same. This can also confuse printers. But if you want to get thick outer covers, it is a good idea to provide the printer with separate files for the cover and rear pages.

Arranging catalogs design with the printer spread format is the most commonly used method. It is easy, fast and convenient. So next time you want to get a booklet printed, arrange the papers in the printer spread unless the printer asks you for some other method.
