Do you know the difference between hardcover binding and softcover bound binding ?
1. The main difference between hardcover books and paperback books is in binding. Paperback books are books that we usually use, such as textbooks and so on. Generally, glue binding technology is used, that is, the inner pages of the book are glued together with the glue for special binding, and then glued together with the cover. Use a special perfect binding machine. The cover is ordinary coated paper, which is thicker than the inner pages. The whole book can be bent and held in your hand.
2. The inner pages of hardcover books generally use a thread-locking process, which means that the inner pages are locked together with threads, and then glued, so that they are stronger and do not like falling pages. The cover is generally made of cardboard. Paste finely printed thin paper on the cardboard to form a book cover, and then glue the inner pages on the book case. Hardcover books cannot be bent, they look high-grade, and they are generally thick and beautiful due to the hard cover
