Question

What file format and bleed requirements do you have for mailing pieces?

Answer

Mailing pieces use a larger bleed than a standard card because trimming and mail handling need a little more room. Build the file correctly and confirm the details for your exact component.

  • Booklets, cards, and envelopes may each have slightly different requirements.
  • Keep addressing and postal indicia areas clear per mailing rules.
  • Share your specific project details with the team for exact specs on multi-part pieces.

Nailing bleed and color mode up front keeps a time-sensitive mail drop on schedule.
