Typesetting
Tiny Bible is typeset by Scribe Inc, a Philadelphia-based company that knows the ins and outs of Bible typesetting. Tiny Bible is typeset in a font family called Edita, which we chose after real-life user testing with several different fonts. Edita has a font style that is particularly designed for small font sizes. Click here to view a sample of the first 5 pages of the gospel of John with a 3mm bleed around the edge. Note: don’t be intimidated by the size! In our experience, the browser preview is smaller than actual real-life page dimensions of 1.64 × 2.17 inches. You can zoom in to have a closer look.
Printing & Binding
It’s been a challenge to find a printing house that can print and bind a Bible in these miniature dimensions. At this size, Tiny Bible has to be bound by hand which is very time-consuming. At scale, this is almost unheard of in Western publishing houses. After conversations with numerous Bible printers, we’ve partnered with R.R. Donnelley’s Asia facility to print and bind Tiny Bible. It is 896 pages, smythe-bound (stitch bound) in 14 signatures of 64 pages each. The cover is made of beautiful black milled cowhide.
Magnifying Glass
Tiny Bible comes with a very simple miniature magnifying glass to assist in reading. With young eyes you can read Tiny Bible without this, but magnification is a helpful assistance for all ages. More information about this coming soon!
Translation
Tiny Bible’s first printing is in the Cambridge edition of the King James Version. We picked this translation for several reasons: it’s a faithful, formal-equivalence translation, it doesn’t require a license, and it continues to be widely loved and daily used. By popular request, we hope to offer a translation in modern English. The main hurdle is the licensing, something we’re currently working through.
