The Format That Holds the Most

Softcover is where the page count lives. The 6x8 and 8x8 formats run to 200 pages, the highest of anything we print, and the 8x11 to 150. If you have a year or a decade to fit in one book, this is the format that takes it.

The cover is a flexible printed card rather than a rigid board. It weighs less and bends rather than cracks in a bag. The trade-off is protection, so for a gift or an heirloom a hardcover holds up better.

Made for

  • A full year of family photos
  • A long trip
  • A yearbook or project
  • A first draft before a hardcover

Softcover Photo Books FAQs

How much is a softcover photo book?

It depends on the size, the paper and the page count. The 6x8 digital softcover costs the least. Each format shows its starting price on its card above.

How many pages can a softcover hold?

Up to 200 in the 6x8 and 8x8 formats, and 150 in 8x11. That is the highest page count we offer.

What is the difference between softcover and hardcover?

The cover. A softcover is a flexible printed card, lighter than a board; a hardcover is a rigid board that protects the pages far better. See our hardcover photo books.

Are softcover photo books available on real photographic paper?

Yes, in 8x8 and 8x11, both with layflat binding and matte or glossy paper, from 20 to 120 pages.

Does a softcover photo book lie flat?

Not the digital versions. The real photographic paper softcovers use layflat binding and do open completely flat.

How are extra pages added?

In steps of four. The editor shows the price as you add them, and each format page lists its cost per four pages.

Which softcover size holds the most?

The 6x8 and 8x8 both reach 200 pages. The 8x11 has the largest page but caps at 150.

Is a softcover suitable as a gift?

For a casual gift, yes. For a wedding album or something meant to last, a hardcover feels more substantial.

What paper is used in a softcover?

170 g/m² matte in the digital formats, or photographic paper at 164 g/m² matte or 171 g/m² glossy.

How long does a softcover photo book take?

9 to 12 business days including delivery. The shipping page has the details.
