With the model 8x binder, our Scoring Machine and Perfectback binding
strips, you can bind professional looking paperback books right at your
desk top. There are two types of Perfectback Lx-Strips. Which type
of strip you should use will depend on what type of document you are
binding, and how it was printed.
• Perfectback ® LF Lx - Strips™
LF stands for "Lay-Flat." These strips create a book bind that lays flat
when opened. The spine hinges free from the book block. The book
opens easily without creasing the spine and you can do the final binding
without heat so you can use printing methods and cover materials that
are heat-sensitive. These strips have two narrow bands of release paper,

• Perfectback ® PS Lx - Strips™
PS stands for "Pressure-Sensitive." These strips have a pressure-sensitive
adhesive on one side of the strip, and a thermal plastic adhesive on the
other side. The entire spine of the cover is permanently bound to the
book block. Final binding is done without heat so you can use cover
materials or printing methods that are heat-sensitive without worry.
These strips have a narrow and a wide band of release paper on the
back of the strip (Figure 18).

• Scoring Machine
The following two pages explain the general procedure to make each
type of Perfectback® book. For greater ease in positioning and applying
the scores to your cover, we recommend using the Powis Parker Scoring
Machine (available separately). With the Scoring Machine you can quickly
and easily add crisp single or double score lines to your wraparound
covers. Spine titles are always perfectly centered and the scores are
exactly where they should be every time thanks to the Scoring Machine's
unique technology.
