That's good to know about the trimming, Hana. Did they mention how long it would take? If you want to print the pages in the lab, Southworth paper is laserjet compatible and they have a linen finish variety. It's only 8.5 by 11, but it's something to think about. I found it at Walmart, but Staples also has it around $30 for a box of 500. I used their business stock for my short story and I was really happy with it. Glad to know I won't be alone if I find myself with a book press and PVA glue this weekend!
