All hardcover today are bound by the CASE-binding method. COPTIC bindings (3) are done without a spine in the back and bound with string ties. All paperbacks are cut FLUSH (4), that is, both covers and pages are even with each other.

A GUTTER (7) is where the inside margins of facing pages meet when sewn to the spine.

A FONT (5) is the style of a typeface and a FRET (6) is the decorative border on a page. A SADDLE (9) is the place on a book-sewing machine here the leaves are sewn to the book's spine. Hope you enjoyed the quiz!
