Greeting cards are printed on 12 Pt C-2S Gloss Coated Cover, which is a thick, glossy cardstock. They are then UV coated on the printed sides to add a protective coating and extra shine. You cannot write on products that have been UV coated. Envelopes are printed on our standard 24# white wove opaque paper stock.

Basic layout and print file guidelines:

Document size: Same size as final trim size of piece


Bleed: Set your bleed to .125" on all sides


Safe Area: Set your margins to .125" and keep all important elements (logos, text, and images that do not bleed) within these margins


Resolution: 300 PPI for all images is strongly recommended for best print quality


File Type: PDFs are preferred


Uploading files: You can upload files directly to this product page, or you can send files here.


If you need any help with creating your print ready artwork, please give us a call at 800-227-7377 or email us at info@uspress.com.

Proofing: After you place your order and upload your artwork, our prepress team will begin inspecting your files to ensure your document size, bleed lines, margins, image resolution, and more are correct in order for the best print quality.They will email you a soft proof (PDF) for your approval prior to printing. Soft proofing is an easy way to see what your finished product will look like and make sure the content is correct. However, soft proofing is not intended for exact color matching. Every monitor displays color differently, and on backlit screens, colors may appear lighter than the actual colors contained in your files. If color matching is critical, please give us a call at 800-227-7377 to order a hard proof.

Production Time: Production time begins after proof approval and is the time required to produce your order before it ships. It is calculated in business days, starting at the next occurrence of 9:00 AM Eastern on the 1st business day after the proof is approved. U.S. Press is closed Saturdays, Sundays and all major holidays; thus, these days are not included in the production schedule.
