Example 4 sided, folded:
It is necessary that you provide a preassembled layout for folded multi-page postcards .
Format
The final format of the postcard that you input should always be understood as the final product size - i.e., the processed (folded or bound) size of the postcard .

Paper
Postcards are exclusively printed on coated text and coated cover papers, which are refined with a printing varnish. Our board is writeable and is a heavy stock.
Printing
The printing of postcards is realized in CMYK and Pantone. postcard , certified according to the GRACoL 7 quality standard.
Processing
Please pay attention to the correct selection! You always refer to the closed and therefore finished product.

Example: Postcard , 4.25" x 5.5", 4 pages, 120 lb coated cover gloss. Processing: Trimming, scoring (flat).
It would be wrong to select 5.5" x 8.5", 2 sided because this defines the open format of the postcard .
