At Mimeo Photos, we take paper quality seriously. Each book type is crafted with materials selected specifically for that format, so the feel and finish of your book will vary depending on which product you choose. Here's a breakdown of what to expect from each.
Hardcover Photobooks
Hardcover books are printed on smooth, silky paper (100# / 148 GSM) chosen for its exceptional image clarity and luxurious feel. The pages are thick and durable, designed to make your photos look their best and hold up over time.
Softcover Photobooks
Softcover books use the same high-quality interior paper as our hardcover books, paired with a glossy exterior cover finished in satin UV coating. The result is a lightweight, magazine-style album that's beautiful, durable, and great for everyday memories.
Layflat Photobooks
Layflat books are printed on double-thick, pearl-textured photographic paper. This format is designed for superior color reproduction and a premium look and feel, with pages that open completely flat for an uninterrupted view of your photos.
Cards
Our cards are available in two finishes, each with a distinct feel.
Matte cards are printed on 130# (243 GSM) Sandshell stock with no UV coating, giving them a crisp, tactile feel that's easy to write on and elegant in hand.
Glossy cards are printed on a high-gloss coated stock for a smooth, eye-catching finish that makes colors and photos pop.
Wall Calendars
Calendar pages are printed on the same high-quality text stock used for our hardcover and softcover books (100# / 148 GSM), delivering the same excellent image clarity and durability you'd expect from our photo books.
