Editing Quickstartguide:Gluebinder (section)

==TIPS==
*If you have a range of copies to bind, cut a couple of backing papers in advance. This way, you can let one book dry on the side when you bind the other one.

*Don't be too hasty when peeling the paper off, the glue needs to be dry enough!

*The glue will eventually bleed slightly on the front and back page of the book block. To avoid this, you can cut a stripe of backing paper and place it close to the edge of the spine. Make sure it is straight and placed as close as possible to the spine. You may fold this stripe a bit inside the pages so it doesn't move when glueing. When dry, you can peel the glue off just as easily as the cover.

*For a better finish and longer life expectations, push the glue rake parameters to its maximum (see picture). This way, the machine will apply a thicker amount of glue on the spine.
