Your file, by the numbers.
- PDF, AI, EPS or SVG work best; we check any file you send.
- Draw square corners; we cut rounded ones.
- Bleed area
Make sure your background and any photos extend to fill the bleed, 3 mm (0.125 in) past the trim on every side, so there are no white edges after cutting.
- Trim
This is where we aim to cut. The trim size is the finished size.
- Safe area
Keep anything important, such as text and logos, inside the safe area, 3 mm (0.125 in) in from the trim; otherwise it may be cut off.TBC

What to know before you order.
Which cards come in 4 × 6 in?
Both: Laminated and Uncoated.
How long does it take?
4x6 postcards take 2–3 business days to make, plus shipping.
Can I mail these as postcards?
A 4 × 6 in card up to 0.016 in thick mails at the USPS postcard rate: 13pt, 15pt and 16pt cards, except 16pt Absorbent paper (0.53 mm). Larger cards and 32pt cards mail at the letter rate. Ask your post office if you are unsure.
Will you check my design before printing?
Yes. We check every file before it’s printed. If something needs fixing, we contact you before we print.
Can I order different papers or sizes together?
Add them as separate items; each design in one item shares the same options.
