Can someone tell me what length the binding takes up passed the edge of the paper. I need to fit this on a book with a perfectly fitted storage box.

I just finished making 50 books and the binding was even with the length of the book but I think it depends on what type of binding you use. With the bindings I use, you can cut them if necessary.

If you mean the width, it will only take up to 1" wide binding. I have one and was surprised at how small it is.

The binder will not open flat. You have to keep it open, perhaps with a weighted page marker. See Levenger catalog for some suggestions.

Dear Joseph, The product description for the 1.5" size of this binder says it holds 350 8.5 X 11 sheets. I'm sure that is referring to computer paper. I purchased this size binder for myself, and for me it holds 100 clear protector sheets. I probably could fit more, but it would be a tight fit. Hope the info is helpful to you. Sincerely, Kate Sgambati

We are talking EXACT measurements here. I just went and measured my shelf with one door closed and it measures 10 3/4". Afraid you binder will NOT fit properly. Sorry

Aloha from Hawaii! I tested this with an 8-1/2 by 11 inch piece of paper and my iphone4. You get pretty much the whole page (might miss 1/4 inch margin). Hope this helps.

I measured from edge of binding to edge of binding. 4 1/2 inches wide; just about 12 1/2 inches in length. Did not measure strap for holding in place. This was the mini size; I use it on my neck.

I see no reason why it couldn't. The sheets are inserted and punched vertically. The binding comb is placed on the fingers in front, opened by them, and then the pages are threaded on the comb. Then the comb lever is lifted and the document is bound. There's no setting for the length of the sheet, other than a stop on the left that would allow you to bind paper as long a A4, but there's no setting for document size other than that.

Riley is correct about the measurements on the box; however, I measured the pages myself and found that they are 8 1/2" long x 6 3/8" wide. My understanding is that this is the standard size for "half sheets". It's roughly the size you see used for letters in Downton Abbey, if you're a fan, only the paper is a heavier weight and you fold it in half for the envelope rather than in quarters.

You can use different sized binders. There is a guide so the edges would be even. I love it and used it to make over 100 cookbooks for our family reunion.

I just finished a paperback 800 pages. It works but the book holder is a little unstable at the beginning and end if the book when the book is really thick because the book is not balanced. I used a small pillow behind the book holder to prop it up. I LOVE my book holder

Just roll the head around uuntil ya find what size ya need. It'll click and you're set. Now I use mine for leather so I don't know about paper.

4 pages will fit easily. The ends aren't closed, so pages can hang over if you will. And depending on what you are using it for you can overlap your pages. I use it for order sheets (8 1/2 x 11 paper) and overlap the sheets so that the images are showing so at any one time I had well over 10 overlapped pages on there.

About 7-8 inches I would say, if it's angled back slightly (which is how I keep mine when reading). If you want it straight up and down, then 9 inches. The top-to-bottom measurement of the back (where the book/binder rests on) is 9 inches, but again, it can be angled back to nearly horizontal if you like, though if you angle too far back you may not be able to see the page you're reading.

To answer this question I tried a very "fat" mass market paperback (302 pages, 1 1/2 " thick). It was not perfectly flat BUT because of the stand's adjustability it was quite readable. Any thick paperback is never read flat unless you break the binding but I read all sizes of books and this stand works with everything I've tried. Love it for large hardcovers, softcovers and magazines.

Actually, I just tried to fit a binder in it and it does not clear. I use it for children's books of all sizes and it is great.

It's just like a page protector. The negatives slide into it and can be viewed from both sides of the page. I used a regular 8 1/2 x 11 notebook binder.
