I'm with Darcy -- Staples and Kinko's ARE awful -- they only appear to be
professional and make good products.
I brought a large orchestral score to Staples to have it enlarged and spiral
bound, and the man put it together b-a-c-k-w-a-r-d-s, and GAVE it to me that
way. Open up the cover, and there's page 36, and the entire thing went
backwards.
Believe it!!

They can also put in two 11" combs and trim the extra. But you might have
better luck with this at a proper (non-chain) print shop. Kinkos and
Staples are almost uniformly awful.

See if you can find an employee at one of those locations that can
help you. It is easy to put a 14" comb in the middle of the 17" side.
They'll need to remove the piece that left-aligns the paper in the
binder so they can get to the middle, but that's really all it takes.
Well, that and an employee willing to do it.

I recently came across the complete handwritten manuscript scores to
the
films ALIEN and ALIENS at the Library of Congress, and in my spare time
I'm
transcribing them into Finale (they not surprisingly won't let you
photocopy
them) with the goal of printing them out and binding them to add to my
collection of film scores.
The problem I've run into is that both scores have such an extensive
list of
instrumentation that the only practical size for the printouts is 11x17
paper. (The handwritten ALIENS score is huge-- 12x36.) Neither Kinko's
nor
Staples can spiral bind a 17" document-- apparently their machines can
only
go up to 14"-- so I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to
where
else I might look to have it done or any other helpful thoughts on
binding.
