Dissertation printing

A dissertation is the author’s main work, the one that earns an academic degree: master, candidate or doctor of sciences. To defend it successfully it is important not only to carry out the research and draw the conclusions, but also to print the dissertation in line with the applicable requirements and standards. The committee assesses not only the content but also the impeccable appearance of the work. High-quality printing and a reliable binding are essential for a good evaluation, and with foil stamping on the cover your work will look even more dignified.

The dissertation publishing process

The candidate writes the work themselves and can also try their hand at formatting it, but it is better to entrust all prepress work to professionals – from typesetting and building tables to proofreading and formatting the bibliography.

There is one more important point when preparing materials for the defence: the dissertation abstract has to be printed as well. This is a short summary of the dissertation, issued in several copies so that the academic supervisor and the committee can review it just before the defence. In it the author briefly presents the main results of the research. The publication has several particular features:

1. the small volume of content fits into an A5 brochure;
2. the cover is printed on coloured paper;
3. the sheets are stapled together (like a school exercise book);
4. the print run can be any size (from 10 copies).

Features of dissertation printing

Research work must be formatted in accordance with all standards and norms. This concerns the use of dense paper, sharp images and a quality binding. A dissertation can be printed single-sided or double-sided, in black and white or in colour, in A4 or A5 and other formats.

We work with modern digital equipment. A work prepared by our specialists, printed and bound, will fully meet all the requirements.

How the bindings are made

The printing house is equipped with various new-generation machines, which gives it unique capabilities in printing and finishing. As standard, a dissertation is printed in a hard binding made of high-quality materials.

1. the printed block of sheets is sewn with strong nylon thread;
2. the cardboard cover is covered with materials such as bookbinding vinyl or baladek (a range of colours is available);
3. the lettering is applied by stamping with metallised foil (gold or silver).

A well-made hard cover not only looks attractive but also protects the contents inside.

A dissertation can also be printed in a soft binding or on a spiral, if the rules of the educational institution allow it, for preliminary review agreed with the academic supervisor, opponents and others. A transparent plastic sheet goes on top and a cardboard backing at the bottom. In this case double-sided printing is acceptable.
