Postcard Printing Services

Regular Postcards - 4.25” x 5.6”

This one is often called a 4 x 6 postcard, but the finished card is 4 1/4 inches by 5 6/10 tenths inches. We usually call them "regular" postcards.

Jumbo Postcards - 5.5” x 8.5”

This type is the same size as a sheet of office paper folded in half from bottom to top. Jumbo postcards are twice the size of a "regular" 4x6 postcard, so if you need to create a more significant impact, this size will help.

Panoramic Postcards - 5.75” x 11.25”

This postcard size is a tad longer and wider than a sheet of standard office paper folded in half lengthwise. This size and wide format will stand out when used for marketing purposes, and it's also a great size and shape for special cards and menus.

Giant Postcards - 8.5” x 11”

If you recognize these dimensions, it's because they're the exact sizing as a standard sheet of office paper. We are able to print postcards in this size, but if you're looking for something this size or larger, you may also want to check the brochure printing options we offer.

Upload Your Own Postcard Design

If you or a coworker is a graphic design genius that has already whipped up an eye-popping postcard design in Microsoft Publisher, Adobe Illustrator (or any other program which can export to Adobe PDF), then ordering postcard printing services online from Expresscopy will be a breeze. Just upload your finished design using a form and let us know how many you want, whether it is a small batch of postcards or a large batch of postcards, and where to send them.

Suppose you're still working on a postcard design or are about to upload one. In that case, we recommend that you look at our Postcard Print Specifications page for essential details about postcard design sizes, margins, bleeds, resolutions, and color profiles.

You don't have to worry if your design is already finished and you're unsure what a color profile is. Our VIP Support team is happy to assist you in crossing the finish line by phone at 800-260-5887, by email at support@expresscopy.com, or by live chat.

Laminated Cover Stock

We can apply a high-gloss lamination to our standard cover stock after it is printed to make glossy postcards. Lamination will not only add shine, but durability as well, which can be very helpful when your postcard printing order is going to be mailed, or if it will be something that you want people to keep around for a long time (calendars, schedules, flashcards, phone directories, reusable coupons, etc.)

If you intend to address and mail postcards yourself, know that adhesive labels may not adhere to the lamination, and this stock cannot run through a postage meter or desktop printer. If you wish to mail laminated postcards yourself, your best bet is our "print and address" postcard printing service. See our direct mail marketing postcards page for additional information.

Although laminated postcards are ideal for many reusable items, they may not be suitable for some single-use printed pieces; glossy postcards look great and are also durable, but they cannot be recycled curbside in many cities.

Uncoated Heavy Card Stock

Our "heavy" card stock is a 10pt paper stock, which is heavier than the greeting cards at the supermarket. A "point" is a thousandth of an inch in printing terminology, so a 10 pt paper stock is ten-thousandths of an inch thick. While it may not sound like much, it makes for a very hefty postcard which is sure to be noticed.

TIP: Postcards printed and left uncoated have a smooth, matte surface, and colors come out looking bright and clear, with a surface you can write on with a pen or pencil.

Uncoated Cover Stock

Uncoated cover stock is somewhat similar to the feel and weight of typical greeting cards. If left uncoated, this stock still has rich colors but is smooth and matte (not shiny). This is an excellent combination of weight and durability for postcard-sized printed pieces you intend to hand out rather than mail.

Shipping

We use "shipping" to refer to a postcard printing order where once everything is printed, we box it all up and ship it out to you. You're free to call it whatever you want, but know that if you see "shipped" rather than "mailed," it means you're expecting a big box of beautiful high-quality stock postcards delivered to your door.
