What is a Postcard?

A postcard is usually a rectangular shaped card that is mailed without being inserted into an envelope. 

While postcards can come in a variety of shapes and sizes, the standard postcard size is 105mm x 148mm, which is the same size as an A6. (quarter of an A4 size).

What is a DL?

DL stands for Dimension Lengthwise.  The standard size for DL is 99mm x 210mm which is one third on an A4 size.

DL Stock is often used for envelopes, brochures, flyers, leaflets, cards and invitations. 

DL envelopes are slightly larger at 110mm x 220mm which can then fit a DL flyer inside.

What weight of paper is best for Postcards?

We would recommend using paper from 200gsm upwards.

Postcards Direct have two standard options available - 200gsm and 300gsm, however let us know if you would like something a little different and we can provide you with other options.

What is gloss stock?

Gloss stock has a sheen and reflective appearance.  it can be coated on each side, or one side only.

This finish will produce the most vibrant colour prints.

What is silk stock?

Silk stocks are considered semi-gloss.  While still shiny and reflective, the lustre is not as high as on a gloss finished stock.

Silk finished stocks are considered to be the middle of the road in terms of colour vibrancy.

What is matte stock?

Matte finished stocks are without lustre and have a dull coating.

Even though glossy stocks produce the most vibrant colours, matte finished stocks still produce nice, professional quality prints.
