3.875x8.875 inch Envelope Printing
#9 Commercial Envelopes
Custom full-color envelope printing is available on both the outside and inside of the envelopes. Envelopes are printed on opaque, smooth white paper, which is easy to write on. They are also compatible with Laser and Inkjet printers. The printing on the outside of the envelope includes both the front and back. The inside printing refers to the actual interior of the envelope. Envelopes are printed flat with full bleed, then cut, folded, and glued.
Heavy ink is not recommended.
For best results, print on this paper using lighter colors. We suggest avoiding high-density dark colors such as black, blue, purple, brown, etc. Because this paper is uncoated, dark ink tends to get soaked into it and might appear darker.

--- Safe Zone: All text, images, logos, etc., need to stay inside the blue line. Anything left outside the blue line may be cut off.
--- Cutting Zone: The product will be cut approximately along this area and shows the final size. Please allow extra space for cutting tolerance around your prints. We recommend no borders due to shifting in the cutting process, borders may appear uneven.
--- Bleed Zone: To avoid white edges on your prints, ensure that the background images or colors extend all the way to the outer edge of the designated black line, known as the bleed. The bleed is the extra background that will be trimmed off after printing, allowing for a clean, edge-to-edge finish.
--- Fold Lines: This is where your print will be folded.
--- No Ink Zone: This area is reserved for glue.
REMINDER!
- Please send artwork without blue, pink, and black guidelines.
- No crop marks.
- Zoom in to 100% to check your resolution quality. Your artwork will print as sharp as it looks at 100% zoom.
- If you send files as .EPS, .PDF, or .AI, all texts should be converted to outline.
- If using Photoshop, flatten your image and save it as a JPG or PDF. This will prevent fonts from converting to defaults.
