A postcard today is much more than a simple mail item – it’s a keepsake, a gesture, a small personal object. That’s why it’s become one of the most popular accessories at graduation exhibitions – art students often display them alongside their work, as an alternative or complement to business cards. A well-chosen image, with a short description and contact info on the back – visitors love taking them home as mementos.

But postcards aren’t just for exhibitions. A custom postcard sends a message even if nothing is written on it – it’s a sign of care and thoughtfulness. With the right photo or personalized design, you can express almost anything – gratitude, an invitation, well wishes, or joyful news.

Even though news travels at lightning speed today, some things are better held in hand, looked at, and kept. That’s exactly what a postcard offers – it’s lasting, personal, and displayable.

Costs do not increase linearly — the more postcards you order, the better the unit price. Pricing is based on how many pieces fit on a single sheet.

Editing guide

Design  /  Avoid using fonts smaller than 5 pt or with very thin lines — their printability depends largely on the smoothness of the chosen substrate. For creative papers with different front and back sides, please specify which side the design should be printed on. Gold and silver elements may not show well on very thin lines or small areas. For deep black areas, we recommend using CMYK 60/50/50/100.
Due to possible trimming inaccuracies, avoid using thin or unprinted borders around the edge of the postcard — even a 0.5 mm shift can make the border look noticeably uneven.
If you're using an online editor, keep in mind that while it's convenient, it may not allow you to export files suitable for professional printing.

Color  /  Please note that we cannot guarantee perfect color consistency for reorders, especially on creative substrates. For sensitive colors, we recommend placing a larger initial order.

General Setup  /  The most reliable file format is PDF/X-4 — it ensures optimal compression and proper embedding of fonts and colors. All images should be in CMYK color mode and 300 dpi resolution at actual size. If you're using extra (spot) colors, the printable areas must be vector-based.
If your design reaches the edge of the print, include a 3 mm bleed. Crop marks should be 3 mm long and placed 3 mm from the edge.

Finishing  /  Glossy lamination enhances colors and is typically used for promotional materials. Matte lamination slightly softens colors but gives a more elegant look.

Quantity  /  A single sheet fits 8 standard A6 postcards or 6 LA4-sized ones — it’s worth ordering in multiples of these for optimal pricing.
