Projects and theses
Dissertations, project reports, lab records and manuals, with the binding your submission requires, where the shop offers it.
A thesis is the one document where formatting genuinely matters. Margins have to hold, page numbers have to land in the right place, and figures have to stay legible after printing.
QuillPrint is built around that: send a print-ready PDF, confirm the pages in the preview, choose the colour and binding you need, and pick a shop that provides it. During submission weeks, setting the job up in advance is the difference between collecting it and queueing for it.
What you get
Send the whole document
Upload your full report, thesis or record as a single PDF, up to 30 MB per document.
Confirm before it prints
Preview the selected pages to check that the front matter, figures and page ranges are exactly right.
Colour only where it is needed
Keep the body in black and white and mark the figure or cover pages as colour, which usually costs less than a full-colour print.
Binding where the shop offers it
Spiral, soft and hard binding appear as options when the shop you select provides them.
Copies for every reader
Set the copy count for your department, your guide and your own records in one order.
Print as a team
Use a Group Order so a project team submits under the same print rules and collects together.

About binding availability
Availability differs by shop
Questions
Yes. Upload your full report, thesis or dissertation, choose colour or black and white and the binding your department requires. Binding options appear where the shop you select offers them.
Common options are spiral binding for records and drafts, soft binding, and hard binding for final submissions. Availability depends on the shop you choose, not every shop offers every type.
Upload a PDF with fonts embedded. This preserves your margins, page numbers, fonts and layout exactly, so the printed and bound report matches what your department asked for.
Upload ahead of time so the shop has your file before you arrive. During peak project and submission weeks, shops are busier and binding adds preparation time, so ordering earlier gives you more room.
No subscription. Review the selected shop's total before payment.
