post card stock

post card stock

2004-10-29 by Steve Schaefer

Is there a post card stock out there ready to go. I am looking for something I 
can print on the front and the back. Ideally it would be luster on the front and 
mat on the back, but I know this might be wishful thinking.


Thanks

I've used EEM, printing 4 postcards per letter size sheet.  Text on the back
works fine (which I print first to avoid marks on the image on the front).

We have a 4x6 matte paper that I've used successfully for postcards.  It's
coated only on one side, but you can print black text on the uncoated side.
It's also very inexpensive ($8/100 sheets).

If you are printing more than 500 postcards, you are better off having a
printer make them for you because of the cost, time and quality.  If you
decide to go this route and can't find a local printer, please contact me
offline.

This one is glossy front, matte on back (or is it the other way around?)

Well, that's almost what you want.

Is 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 ($.37 stamp)too big? 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 ($.23 stamp) too
small? I know you said "ready to go" and that does require a few
seconds with a paper cutter. But it sure does open up the paper
selection. And eliminates the need for buying a special size paper.
Think of how many sheets you can cut in half or quarters in the time
it takes you to profile a new paper.
