Anova won the two big prizes at this year's British Book Design and Production awards with HarperCollins another big winner with three accolades.
The independent publisher won best British book and book of the year for its Britain by Bike title. Judges said it was "nostalgic in feel yet thoroughly modern and useable, printed on quality paper it is a great little package".
HarperCollins won the lifestyle illustrated award for Rose Elliot's New Complete Vegetarian, the scholarly, academic and reference book prize for Collins Flower Guide and the children's trade award for The Heart and the Bottle.
The awards were held at the Lancaster London Hotel on Tuesday. Michael Johnson, chief executive of the British Printing Industries Federation, said: "The quality of the awards this year was of extremely quality and we were delighted with the fantastic amount of entries and the brilliant high
production standards.
"The high quality work by the entrants meant that the judges had a tougher choice than ever in deciding on the final list."
