Postcard Printing FAQs

What sizes are available?

We have a variety of default sizes ranging from 3x3 inches to 5x7 inches. Please check our postcard product page for a full list of default sizes. We offer matching envelopes in most common postcard sizes. Please submit a custom quote request to inquire about custom shaped and sized postcards.

It’s also a good idea to check with your local post office to confirm that your postcard dimensions meet their mailing requirements.

What paper stocks and weights are available?

We offer a variety of materials for postcards. Our most popular are:

• 100% PCW Uncoated Paper
  • Smooth, dull, and white surface
• 10% PCW Recycled Coated Paper
  • Smooth, sleek, and white surface
• 50% PCW Recycled Kraft Board
  • Textured, dull, and brown surface

Can postcards be printed double-sided?

Of course! As with all of our cards, you can choose to print on one or both sides with either full color or black ink only.

What coating and laminating options are there?

If you choose a coated paper (like silk or gloss), we can add a soft touch coating. Soft touch coating creates a velvety texture and matte appearance.

We can also add a gloss laminate. We use the most eco-friendly gloss laminate available. It uses heat to seal itself to your paper product. Because of this, a small edge of laminate will be left around the outside of your product to ensure proper sealing. Gloss laminate is only available on flat cards.

Can you print variable data?

Yes! We can use variable data to print addresses, names, and any other information you need on each postcard.

Can you mail my postcards?

Absolutely! We offer a variety of mailing services. We can print and mail your postcards directly from our facilities, so you never have to worry about making it to a post office. We also offer EDDM postcards, which allow for geographically targeted marketing via the USPS.
