𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗪𝗘𝗥 𝗜𝗦 𝗕: 𝗦𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚

Scoring creates a controlled line in heavier paper or cardstock so the sheet folds more cleanly.

On heavier stocks, especially coated stocks, folding without a score can sometimes cause cracking along the fold. Scoring helps guide the fold and gives the finished piece a cleaner appearance.

It is a small finishing step, but it can make a big difference.

A proof is your last good opportunity to catch the little things before a job goes into production.

Take an extra minute to check names, spelling, dates, phone numbers, mailing addresses, page order, and quantities. Those are the details that are easy to assume are correct until they are not.

An extra minute at the proofing stage can save a reprint later.

Sometimes the simplest thing can make a mailing easier for the person receiving it.

For fund drives, statements, membership mailings, and other response pieces, including a reply envelope gives the recipient an easy way to send something back. We can print the form, reply envelope, outer envelope, and assemble the whole package.

𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗧𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗗 𝗦𝗜𝗭𝗘 𝗠𝗔𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗦
One thing customers are sometimes surprised to learn is that postage is not based on just one measurement.

The size, shape, thickness, and mailing class of a piece can all affect how the Post Office categorizes it. A larger postcard may still be a great marketing piece, but it may not mail the same way as a smaller one.

That is why we like to look at the mailing requirements before the job is designed and printed.

NCOA helps update addresses for people who have moved.

Before a mailing goes out, running the list through address update services can help catch moves and improve the quality of the list. That can mean fewer wasted pieces and fewer mail pieces going to an old address.

A cleaner mailing list is simply a better place to start.

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗖𝗘 𝗙𝗥𝗜𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗚𝗘: 𝗪𝗛𝗜𝗖𝗛 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗖𝗞 𝗜𝗦 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗥?

Here is a little twist.

Two stacks contain the exact same number of sheets.

One is glossy coated stock. One is uncoated stock.

𝙒𝙝𝙞𝙘𝙝 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙙𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙬𝙚𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙨 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚, 𝘼 𝙤𝙧 𝘽?

Or do they weigh exactly the same?

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗪𝗘𝗥: 𝗞𝗘𝗘𝗣 𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗠𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗔𝗪𝗔𝗬 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗠

The problem was the important text sitting too close to the edge.

Even with accurate modern cutting equipment, printed pieces need a safe area so names, phone numbers, logos, and other important information are not at risk during finishing.

Now for a quick question:

A: 1 inch
B: 1/2 inch
C: 1/8 inch
D: No extra image is needed

Take a close look at this postcard.

Something important is sitting much too close to the edge of the finished piece.

Can you spot what might cause trouble during trimming?
