(Back) (Use your Browser Back button to return to the page you were viewing) Trim Size refers to the size of the interior paper portion of a Bible. It is the size the paper is “trimmed” to during the binding process of production. Paperback covers are the size of the paper as well. A Hardcover usually extends over the Trim Size by about a 1/8-inch on all sides of the Bible. Leather and imitation covers usually extends over the Trim Size by about a 1/4-inch on all sides except the spine, which adds about a 1/8 inch. If the thickness of the Bibles is given, it is usually only the thickness of the paper not including the cover.
