Book binding with hot glue I watched a couple of videos on YouTube regarding book binding with hot glue: in short, they were presenting that the pages should be put together in a press and then hot glue is applied on the side.
However, I am not confident in this method, because I don't think that simply applying hot glue on the side will keep all the paper sheets in their place.
I haven't tried this method before, but I am looking for suggestions (in case I missed something).
What is the best method to bind books using hot glue?
This appears to be one of the methods used to manufacture paperback books.
However the pages in a paperback have a rough back edge, not a clean cut, this allows more surface for the glue to bond to.
Some binding machines also use hot glue.
