Got questions about getting your books printed fast? At Amazing Print, we understand that speed is often of the essence. You asked, and we’ve answered your most pressing questions about our 48-hour print service to help you navigate your book printing needs efficiently.
Do you provide book templates?
Yes, absolutely! We offer a variety of free book templates to simplify your book creation process. You can find and download these templates on our Templates Page. Our templates are compatible with a wide range of word processing programs, including Microsoft Word, Word Perfect, Open Office, and Pages, ensuring ease of use regardless of your preferred software. For book covers, we provide free templates for Adobe InDesign and PDF cover templates which can be used with Photoshop and other design software, or as a helpful guide for setting up your cover design.
How quickly can I receive my printed books?
Speed is our specialty! Once you’ve approved your online proofs, we pride ourselves on a rapid turnaround. Standard perfect bound (paperback) and saddle-stitched books are printed and bound in just 2 business days. For standard spiral coil bound or casebound (hard cover) books, the production time is 5 business days. Remember to factor in shipping time, which will be calculated for you after you enter your zip code into our cost calculator.
Need your books even faster? We offer expedited production services, including same-day options, and expedited shipping to meet those tight deadlines.
Note: Please be aware that certain upgrades, such as Printed Proofs, Diamond 3D covers, Foil Stamping, Tabs, Individual Shrink Wrapping, Freight Shipping, or ISBNs, may extend the standard production time. For detailed timing specifics, please click here.
With strategically located facilities, Amazing Print has two 48 Hour Books locations in Las Vegas, Nevada, and Twinsburg, Ohio. This allows us to deliver most printed books within two business days after they ship when using UPS ground service.
If you have a specific “need by” date, don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team via email, phone, or online chat. We are dedicated to helping you find the quickest and most cost-effective solution to get your books delivered exactly when you need them. You can also consult our detailed production schedules and shipping schedules for more in-depth information.
Do you provide cover design services?
Yes, we do! Amazing Print offers comprehensive cover design services to match your needs and budget. We provide both fully custom cover designs, where our talented graphic designers collaborate directly with you to bring your vision to life, and convenient create-a-cover templates.
Our create-a-cover templates offer a fantastic and more budget-friendly alternative to fully custom designs. With this option, our designers will expertly integrate your images and content into our professionally designed layouts, resulting in a polished and appealing cover.

Can I get ISBNs and barcodes through Amazing Print?
Yes, you can! While an ISBN isn’t mandatory for every book project, it is essential if you plan to sell your book through major bookstores or online retailers.
At Amazing Print, we simplify the process and save you money by bundling ISBNs with barcodes. To obtain an ISBN, simply download our ISBN Application Form (USA), complete the form, and email it back to us. (Please note that this service is for customers in the United States and its territories. Canadian customers should acquire their ISBN through CollectionsCanada).
We offer ISBN and barcode packages at competitive prices: a single ISBN & barcode for $125, a block of 10 for $450 ($45 each), a block of 100 for $2,000 ($20 each), and a block of 1,000 for $4,000 (just $4 each).
It’s crucial to order your ISBN before we finalize your cover artwork and to ensure the barcode is included on your cover proof before approval. While the ISBN process typically only takes a couple of hours and usually won’t impact your deadline, we can accommodate printing your books initially without a barcode and provide barcode stickers for later application if necessary.
Important Note: All ISBN purchases are FINAL. Once an ISBN is purchased, it is non-returnable, and refunds are not available. Click here for more detailed information about ISBNs.
