Print Marketing Tips

Envelope Printing

 

Custom envelope printing turns one of the most overlooked business materials into a powerful brand touchpoint. Every letter, invoice, and mailing your business sends is packaged in an envelope - and that envelope is the very first thing your recipient sees. A properly branded envelope with your logo and return address projects professionalism before the contents are even opened, and a full-color marketing envelope can significantly increase open rates for direct mail campaigns.

At Copies America, we offer two envelope printing products to match any volume and quality requirement. 1-Color Envelopes for cost-effective, professional branding on everyday business correspondence, and Offset Envelopes for full-color CMYK marketing envelopes that make a stronger visual impression. Both available in standard business sizes with fast turnaround and nationwide shipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

What envelope sizes do you offer?

We offer the most common business envelope sizes including #10 (4.125" x 9.5" - the standard business letter size), #9, #6-3/4, 6" x 9" catalog, and 9" x 12" open-end catalog. The #10 is by far the most common for everyday business letters, invoices, and statements. Contact us if you need a size not listed here.

What is the difference between 1-color and offset envelope printing?

1-color envelopes are printed with a single ink - black or a PMS spot color - for your return address, logo, and basic branding. Offset envelopes use full CMYK 4-color process printing for multi-color logos, background colors, and photography. Choose 1-color for everyday business mail where cost matters. Choose offset when the envelope itself is part of your marketing message.

Do I need a template before designing my envelope?

Yes - we strongly recommend requesting a template before designing. Envelope flat layouts are not the same as the finished folded envelope and have specific areas (flap, seam, fold lines, USPS barcode zone) where no printing should appear. Contact us at 1-800-423-2679 and we will provide the correct template for your chosen size before you begin.

Should I choose a window or non-window envelope?

Window envelopes have a clear panel through which the recipient address printed on your enclosed document is visible - eliminating the need to print or label addresses on the envelope. Standard for invoices and statements. Non-window envelopes require addresses to be printed directly on the envelope, and are better for personalized letters, marketing mail, and official correspondence where a clean, professional front face is important.

Are your envelopes USPS mailable?

Yes. All standard sizes meet USPS mailing requirements. For printing on the face of the envelope, USPS requires the bottom 5/8" to remain clear for barcode scanning and the right portion clear for the destination address. Contact us if you need guidance on USPS clearance requirements for your specific envelope design.
