Digital BW, The Print

The 5x7 cards are actually 7x10 pre-scored sheets.

The envelope size I print 3-up on a standard letter sized sheet and 
trim them down with a paper cutter after printing.

So I'm not really throwing anything out of the ordinary at it.

Interesting to hear about the custom sheet size limit. Where did you 
get that information?
