School Printing

School Printing in Sialkot — Diaries, Exam Papers, Certificates and ID Cards

Malik Art Printing Press has been printing school stationery in Sialkot since 1954. Schools, colleges, academies and coaching centres across the city come to us for the paperwork that runs their year: home work diaries, exam papers and answer sheets, certificates, student ID cards, fee cards and fee slip books, report cards, file covers and admission flyers. Everything is designed, printed and bound in one building, so a complete annual set arrives together instead of being collected from four different printers.

School printing is not like commercial printing. The volumes are large, the budget is fixed by a committee, the deadline is tied to the academic calendar, and every single item carries the school name, crest and session year. A diary that arrives two weeks after the session starts is worthless, and a fee slip book with the wrong serial numbers creates an audit problem for the accounts office. That is why we plan school jobs backwards from the admission date and print in stages: diaries and registers first, then fee cards and slip books, then exam stationery and certificates as the terms approach.

We work in both English and Urdu medium formats, we typeset Urdu text correctly with Nastaliq fonts rather than pasting images of text, and we can print a school crest in one, two or four colours to match the uniform, the building signage and the existing letterhead.

What We Print for Schools and Academies

Our school printing range covers the full academic year, from admission season to result day.

Student Homework Diaries and School Diaries

The home work diary is the single most used printed item in any school. We print diaries for Play Group through Matric in A5 and B5 sizes, with a hard cover or a laminated soft cover, and with pages laid out for daily homework, teacher remarks, parent signatures, attendance and the school timetable. Diary pages can carry the school crest, motto, rules, uniform list, fee schedule and holiday calendar, and we can print a different colour cover for each section so juniors and seniors are easy to tell apart.

Exam Papers, Answer Sheets and Question Paper Printing

We print question papers, answer sheets, OMR-style response sheets and practical record sheets on 70gsm to 80gsm maplitho so that they accept pen and pencil without bleed-through. Exam work is handled under strict confidentiality: each set is printed in a single run, counted, packed and sealed, and we can number every sheet sequentially so the exam office knows exactly how many copies exist. Schools with multiple campuses usually order a separate sealed pack per campus, labelled and dated.

Certificates, Awards and Merit Cards

Certificates for prize distribution, sports day, position holders, hifz completion, attendance and character awards, printed on 170gsm to 250gsm art card or textured board. Options include gold or silver foil borders, blind emboss on the crest, a printed signature line, serial numbering and a blank space for a hand-written name. We keep each school’s certificate layout on file so next year’s set matches the last one exactly.

Student ID Cards and Staff ID Cards

PVC and laminated ID cards with the student photograph, roll number, class, section, session, blood group and guardian contact, plus a barcode or QR code for library and gate attendance. Cards are printed on 300gsm to 760micron PVC with a matt or gloss finish, and we can supply them cut to CR80 standard size with a slot punch, lanyard or holder. Staff and bus-attendant cards follow the same template in a different colour band.

Fee Cards and Fee Slip Books

Monthly fee cards in Urdu and English, printed in single colour or two colour on 250gsm board, with twelve months of receipt stubs or a single-term format. Alongside them we print duplicate and triplicate fee slip books with carbonless paper, sequential serial numbers, school stamp space and a separate office copy. Numbering is the part schools ask about most, and we number every book from a starting serial you specify so the accounts register stays continuous across reprints.

Report Cards and Progress Reports

Term-wise report cards for 1st, 2nd and 3rd term, printed on 250gsm to 300gsm board with space for subject marks, grades, position, remarks and parent signature. We can print pre-filled subject lists per class so teachers only write marks, and we can supply a matching envelope or a folded card format that keeps the result private.

File Covers, Syllabus Folders and Result Folders

Printed file covers with a centre crease for carrying the syllabus, result sheets and circulars, made on 250gsm to 300gsm board with matt lamination so they survive a full year in a school bag. We also produce pocket folders, document wallets and certificate holders in the school’s colours.

Admission Flyers, Pamphlets and Prospectuses

Admission season material in Urdu and English: single-colour pamphlets for tuition centres, full-colour flyers for open days, and multi-page prospectuses with photographs, fee structure, faculty details and admission criteria. Tri-fold and bi-fold formats fit a standard envelope for posting to parents.

Registers, Receipt Books and Office Stationery

Attendance registers, admission registers, stock registers, cash books and receipt books bound with a hard cover and a cloth spine, plus school letterheads, envelopes, visitor slips, gate passes and staff visiting cards so the whole office matches.

Paper, GSM and Size Options

School budgets are tight, so we stock the right paper for each item rather than selling one sheet for everything.

70gsm to 80gsm maplitho — exam papers, answer sheets and internal circulars
90gsm to 100gsm woodfree — school letterheads, notices and admission forms
120gsm to 150gsm art paper — prospectus inner pages and admission flyers
170gsm to 250gsm art card — certificates, merit cards and ID card blanks
250gsm to 300gsm board — fee cards, report cards and file covers
300gsm to 760micron PVC — student and staff ID cards
Carbonless (NCR) sets — duplicate and triplicate fee slip books

Common sizes are A4, A5, B5, DL and CR80 for ID cards, and we die-cut custom diary and fee card sizes when a school already has a printed holder or a fixed tray in the accounts office.

Printing, Binding and Finishing

We run offset for the bulk of school work and digital for short reprints and late additions.

Offset printing — diaries, registers, fee slip books and exam stationery above 1,000 pieces
Digital printing — 50 to 500 pieces, urgent reprints and mid-session additions
Binding — section sewn, perfect bound, saddle stitch, wire-o and spiral for diaries and registers
Numbering — sequential serial numbers on fee slips, receipts, certificates and exam sheets
Perforation — tear-off fee stubs, reply slips and detachable coupons
Lamination — matt or gloss on diary covers, file covers and ID cards
Foil and emboss — gold or silver foil and blind emboss on certificates and crests
Punching and eyelets — slot punch, lanyard holes and tag strings

Urdu and English Typesetting for Schools

Sialkot schools print most parent-facing material in Urdu. We typeset Urdu in proper Nastaliq with correct line spacing and ligatures, not as a picture of text, so the printed fee card or pamphlet stays sharp at any size and can be corrected without retouching. The same job can carry English on one side and Urdu on the other, and we keep the bilingual layout on file for the next session.

Order Quantities and Pricing

Minimum order is 100 pieces for digital ID cards and certificates, 250 pieces for digital flyers and forms, and 1,000 pieces for offset stationery. Diaries and registers are quoted per copy because page count drives the price.

100 to 500 pieces — ID cards, certificates, late reprints
500 to 2,000 pieces — fee cards, report cards, admission flyers
2,000 to 10,000 pieces — exam papers, answer sheets, forms
1,000 to 20,000 copies — homework diaries, registers and fee slip books

To quote a school job we need five details: the item, size, page count, paper and quantity, plus the session year and the serial number range for numbered items. Send those with the school crest and we will reply with a written price, a sample of the paper, and a delivery date tied to your admission calendar.

School Printing FAQs

What is the minimum order quantity for school printing?

Our minimum is 100 pieces for digital ID cards and certificates, 250 pieces for digital flyers and forms, and 1,000 pieces for offset stationery. Homework diaries and registers are quoted per copy because the page count drives the price, and most schools order one diary per student for the full session.

Can you print school diaries and registers before the session starts?

Yes. We plan school work backwards from your admission date and print in stages: diaries and registers first, then fee cards and slip books, then exam stationery and certificates as terms approach. Diary printing with binding normally takes 7 to 12 working days after approval, so we ask for the crest, page count and quantity four to five weeks before the session opens.

Do you print exam papers, answer sheets and certificates confidentially?

Yes. Exam material is printed in a single controlled run, counted, packed and sealed, and we can number every sheet sequentially so the exam office knows exactly how many copies exist. Separate sealed packs are prepared per campus or per class, labelled and dated, and certificates can be numbered and foil stamped in the same way.

Can you print fee cards, fee slip books and diaries in Urdu?

Yes. We typeset Urdu in proper Nastaliq with correct ligatures and line spacing rather than printing text as an image, so Urdu fee cards, pamphlets and diary pages stay sharp at any size. The same item can carry English on one side and Urdu on the other, and we keep the bilingual layout on file for the next session.

How long does school printing take and do you deliver in bulk?

Digital cards, certificates and flyers are ready 24 to 48 hours after approval, offset exam stationery takes 4 to 6 working days, and bound diaries and fee slip books take 7 to 12 working days. Delivery inside Pakistan takes 1 to 3 days by courier, and for large school orders we deliver with our own transport in Sialkot.
