“Does what it says on tin. Book paper good. Would like to specify non-standard sizes (or have more to choose from). Most functions you could want are present though I couldn't find a way to scale photo to fit frame (?). Red-eye correction not great.”

“Very pleased with the quality of the photobooks and the presentation boxes. Only missing element is possibility to have a 2-page spread for certain images - I do an amount of architectural photography using a tilt-shift lens and final images would be great over a centre spread. Other vendors have this facility.”

Hi Frank, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. it is possible to create books with double pages spreads in the Bob Designer software. You can either do this by placing the photo as a "background image across both pages" or by simply placing the image on the page and dragging it across how you would like. This works particularly well with our lay-flat photographic paper books. You might find this help video useful https://www.bobbooks.co.uk/help-and-info/how-to/video/how-do-i-create-layouts-using-bob-designer You are also welcome to contact our customer care team at any time, if you'd like more help. Kind regards, Bob Books

“I use Bob Books extensively for my photo albums. The quality of the book binding and printing is excellent and having the software on your computer rather than using a web interface, makes getting it right so much easier. The last order was for cards to let people know about my daughters birth. Again these were excellently printed on good quality card, and easy to create. Bob Books also have regular offers and discounts which is obviously also helpful. Best company of its type on the marker in my opinion.”

“Finally managed to turn my scrappy recipe collection into a folder full of JPGs and copied them all into a Bob Book. The result is fabulous, my favourite recipes of all times in one place all sorted and displayed and besides, it made a damn nice Christmas present for family members as well to share flavours used over many years. The service was fast and the quality extremely high. Thank you.”

“High quality products - books and calendars - lots of friendly support when needed. Only not 5 stars because some things need tidying up - like combining online and downloaded orders. It is much better to download the software - more options - if your network speed is fast enough.”

“I love Bob Books. I always print on Lustre Photographic paper and I love the quality. The customer service is great as well. The only thing that would make me love Bob Book more is if they did simple linen covers in one or two colours.”

“I was looking for a good quality lay-flat book and I certainly found that with Bob Books. I was very happy with the quality and presentation of the book. The software was not hard to learn and I found it allowed me great flexibility for laying out my photos - you don't have to stick with the prescribed layouts though they are very useful. They were also very quick to respond to my questions when I started working on the book. The other advantage for me was that would ship to Australia (at a reasonable rate) - something other similar companies would not do (for the same quality product - photographic quality printing and good quality lay-flat presentation).”

“I was going to use another company but their website was down so I used Bob books instead for my customer. I found the whole process so easy to do, web the carefully packaged book arrived, I was completely delighted. The photos really showcased my work. Awesome quality. Best of all, my client was delighted. I'll definitely be using them again in the very near future without hesitation.”

“The book was printed beautifully but I would have liked the choice of lustre paper as well as matte and gloss”

Hi Norma, Thank you for your review. The size which you choose (large portrait), is the only size we offer which isn't available with our lay-flat photographic papers. Unfortunately, the machinery used for producing the photographic paper books isn't large enough for the Large Portrait books. We do hope that we will eventually be able to offer the option in the future. Kind regards, Bob Books
