Letter printing & mailing under 50 pieces (Letter Printing & Mailing)
Introducing our specialized mailing product that offers you the flexibility to send anywhere from 1 to 50 pieces of 1, 2, or 3-sheet letters using a range of envelope sizes, even accommodating 9x12 large envelopes. With this service, you can easily design your letters and envelopes, submit the PDF files to us, and we'll take care of the printing and mailing for you. This is an excellent option for reaching out to potential leads with special offers. If you require a higher quantity of mailings, we have other products available for your needs. Even with small mailing quantities, you can take advantage of our mail-merging capabilities to personalize your letters. Here are the key features of this product:
- No presort postage, only 1st class regular mail is available for this product.
- You have the flexibility to mail 1, 2, or 3-sheet letters in various envelope sizes. Please note that only non-window envelopes are available for this particular product.
- If your letter spans multiple pages, all pages must either be printed in color or all in black and white.
Handwritten fonts on envelopes: Any font you use for addressing your envelopes will be printed as-is since you are providing us with PDF files ready to print. Therefore you can include a company logo or standard font or any handwritten font you have in your computer - whatever you see in your PDF, that is how your envelopes will be printed.
You may either mail merge your own letter and envelope and upload one PDF file containing all your letters and another PDF file containing all your envelopes or send us your CSV mailing list so we can mail merge it for you. Ms Word format is NOT accepted for your letter. Typically you will do your mail merge in Ms Word and then save the results in PDF. Full bleed is not supported for this product, so please have a least a 0.25" clear margin on all 4 sides of your letters and envelopes.
Confirm the sequence of the records. Meaning if your letter contains mail merge data (variable data from your list), ensure that the first and the last piece match when comparing the letters to envelopes.
If you chose us to handle the mail merge, we still need a PDF template for your letter and envelope, which you will upload on the next page. Only 1st class regular postage is available for this product and must be selected after you configure this order. You’ll be provided with the postage option following the next page after you upload your letter and envelope PDFs.

FAQs
Yes, the printing and mailing service is designed to handle both single-page and multi-page documents. Various color paper and envelopes are offered to accommodate diverse needs. This particular product makes available a range of envelope sizes, notably including a 9.5x12.5 USPS Priority Flat Rate envelope and a 9.5x12.5 Large Manila envelope. The service is considered suitable for sending personalized documents such as contracts, sales agreements, or individual correspondence. The mail-merge process may be executed by our service, or a document that has been already merged may be uploaded for simplified printing and mailing. This option is specifically intended for low-volume orders, typically ranging from one (1) to fifty (50) pieces.
When multiple separate single-letter files need to be processed within a single order, the following procedure must be observed:
- The first letter order should be placed and added to the shopping cart.
- The "Letter printing & mailing under 50 pieces" product must be selected again from the "All Products" tab.
- Selections for the second letter are then made, and this item is added to the cart.
- This process is required to be repeated for every single-letter file that needs to be mailed.
The outcome of this process is that the shopping cart will contain multiple separate product entries (e.g., four entries for four separate letters). Payment for all items is subsequently processed in a single transaction.
The decision to receive a digital proof is optional. Even when pre-merged documents are submitted, two choices are presented to the client:
- The "PDF proof" option may be selected if a review and approval of the digital file are desired prior to printing.
- The "Run as-is, no proof" option may be selected to officially waive the proofing step.
As the document being printed is a pre-merged file and no changes to the content will be made by the service, selecting "Run as-is" is generally recommended.
Yes, orders under 50 pieces are processed and mailed within two business days, which is a shorter duration compared to the standard four business days.
The commencement of the two-day period is determined by one of the following two events:
- With Proof: Turnaround time officially begins immediately following the approval of the digital proof by the client. If approval is provided before 12 PM PST, that business day is counted as Day 1. If approval occurs after 12 PM PST, the following business day is considered Day 1. (It should be noted that the proofing process typically requires between half and a full business day.)
- Without Proof (Run as-is): If the proofing step is waived (as is common when uploading pre-merged files), the turnaround time begins immediately after the payment for the order is received.
Several specifications regarding printing and mailing are applicable to this product:
- Postage: Only First-Class Regular postage is made available; discounted presort postage is not an offered option.
- Page Count: Letters may be mailed if they consist of one, two, or three sheets of paper.
- Envelopes: Only envelopes without windows are available for use.
- Color Consistency: For letters that consist of multiple pages, all pages must utilize the same printing option. For example, all pages are required to be printed in color, or conversely, all pages must be printed in black and white.
Further clarification on any of these procedures can be provided upon request.
