Who asks us for postcards, and what for
The format is always the same, the use almost never is. These are the jobs that leave the counter most often.
Trade fairs and events
A postcard is what you hand to whoever stops at your stand: cheaper than a brochure, pocket-sized and not thrown away immediately. We often print it alongside a roll-up banner with matching artwork.
Hotels, guesthouses and restaurants
A postcard with a photo of the property to leave in rooms or at the desk, or with a map and directions. The back holds opening hours, contacts and a QR code.
Save the dates and weddings
Cheaper than a full invitation and just as effective: posted months ahead to hold the date. For the complete set, see our custom invitations.
Artists, photographers and illustrators
Small runs of your own image to sell or give away at an exhibition. If colour fidelity matters more than quantity, look at fine art printing.
Promotional postcards
Discounts, openings, seasonal launches: postcards sit on the counter or slip into envelopes. Runs of 250 and 500 are the most requested.
Cards to go with a product
Thank-you notes inside the parcel, care instructions, a discount code for the next order. Postcard format on heavy card, printed on one side only if you want to write by hand.
How to prepare the file
Four precautions that avoid ninety per cent of problems. If in doubt, send us the file: we check it before printing.
Bleed and safety margin
If colour or photos reach the edge, extend them 3 mm past the trim on every side. Keep text and logos at least 4 mm inside the edge: trimming always has a tolerance of a few tenths.
Image resolution
300 dots per inch at real size. A photo taken from Instagram or a website is almost always 72 dpi, and on coated card the difference shows immediately, far more than on a flyer.
Front and back in one PDF
Two pages in the same file, in order and with the same orientation. If the back needs rotating by 180 degrees, tell us: the file alone does not say so.
If you are going to post them
Leave the right half of the back clear for the address and stamp, and choose 300 gsm card: 200 gsm is cheaper but bends in postal sorting.
Printed pieces that pair well with postcards
If you are preparing material for an event or a business, you usually need more than one piece.
