Soft bound bookbinding, also known as perfect binding, is a method of binding books using a flexible cover, typically made of paper or cardstock. In this process, the pages are gathered and stacked, with their spines glued together, and then the cover is attached to the spine. This technique is commonly used for paperback novels and magazines, offering a cost-effective and lightweight option for book production. Soft bound books are generally less durable than hardcover options but are popular for their affordability and ease of handling.
