In typical book sizes, short run offset book printing is usually done
in signatures of 16 or 32 (mostly 32). There are no problems with
half-signatures (although they're slightly more expensive) so the
ideal page count generally should divide by 16.
Of course, page counts that divide by 16 will also evenly divide by 4.
Of course, LSI would have to advise their ideal signature size for
the various book trim sizes they handle. You should ask your contact
at LSI to let you know. (I imagine that it will eventually show up in
their online information.
