Question

What's the weight a postcard?

Answer
A postcard's weight depends mainly on the paper stock you choose, since heavier stocks weigh more per piece.
  • Standard postcards are commonly printed on 14 pt or 16 pt card stock
  • Thicker premium stocks add noticeable weight and rigidity
  • Size matters too, larger postcards weigh more than compact ones
  • For mailing, weight can affect postage, so heavy stocks or oversized cards may cost more to send
