NCR Books Printing – Duplicate & Triplicate
Carbonless books built for daily use: perforated top sheet for easy tear-out, copies stay bound for secure records. 2-part or 3-part, custom colours, sequential numbering, drilling and hard back covers.
Durable, tidy record-keeping
NCR Books (also called invoice books or receipt books) are perfect when you need the top copy to tear out while keeping a bound duplicate for your files. Each book includes a protective cover, strong backing, and a reusable writing shield to prevent marks on the next set.

How We Build Your Book
NCR Books – FAQs
What’s the difference between an NCR pad and an NCR book?
Pads are glued stacks; all sheets tear out and the copies become loose. Books are stitched and tape-bound; the top sheet tears out on a perforation while the duplicate(s) stay bound in the book for tidy records.
Can you add sequential numbering?
Yes. Choose the starting number (e.g. 0001, 1000) and we’ll number each set in the position you prefer.
Can the top sheet be double-sided?
Yes, the top sheet can be printed on both sides. The carbonless coated under-sheets are printed single-sided so the transfer works correctly.
Do you include a writing shield?
Every book comes with a reusable writing shield to stop impressions transferring onto the next set.
What sizes and parts are available?
Common sizes are A4, A5, A6 and DL in 2-part or 3-part. If you need something different, just ask.
