How we make it
Padding means gluing a stack of sheets along one edge so they form a block you tear from one sheet at a time. It is what turns a pile of printed sheets into a receipt book, a prescription pad or a notepad. The process is simple but involves decisions: which edge is glued, how many sheets per block, whether there is a stiffening board behind, and whether the block carries sequential numbering. The backing board is not really optional in practice: it is what lets you write without a desk, and for a prescription pad or a field receipt book that is exactly the point. The glue has to stay flexible, so sheets tear cleanly without dragging the one below.
