Letterhead

Letterhead enhances professionalism by featuring a company’s name, address, logo, and corporate design at the top of each page. Not only does it strengthen brand recognition, but it also conveys credibility and consistency. Additionally, many businesses incorporate background patterns for added appeal. Furthermore, using premium-quality paper elevates the presentation of your official documents. Ultimately, a well-designed letterhead can reinforce trust and professionalism in all communications.

Popular Direct Mail Marketing Materials:

Postcards

Envelopes serve as an excellent way to package and protect important documents like appeal letters, invoices, and personalized letters. Moreover, incorporating creative touches such as screened images, bold colors, and specialty paper can help grab attention. Selecting the right envelope size ensures that your materials remain protected and professionally presented. Consequently, well-designed envelopes increase the likelihood of recipients opening and engaging with your content.

Letters / Flyers

Letters and flyers provide an effective way to deliver information concisely. These single-page documents can be printed on one or both sides, depending on your needs. They work well for appeal letters, handouts, invoices, and fundraising materials. Additionally, we offer tri-fold, half-fold, or flat options to suit different mailing requirements.

Sizes: 3.667” x 8.5” (tri-fold), 5.5” x 8.5” (half-fold), 8.5” x 11” (flat)

Self-Mailers

Self-mailers eliminate the need for envelopes while conforming to USPS® mailing regulations. They work well for promotions, business updates, and announcements. Since they travel without an envelope, we use heavy paper stock to prevent damage during USPS® processing. Additionally, they provide a budget-friendly alternative for direct mail marketing.

Sizes: 3.667” x 8.5” (tri-fold), 5.5” x 8.5” (half-fold)

Brochures

Brochures, similar to self-mailers, contain more detailed information and require an envelope for mailing. They are perfect for marketing, product education, and event promotions. Moreover, their structured layout allows for a combination of text and high-quality images to create a visually appealing presentation.

Sizes: 3.667” x 8.5” (8.5” x 11” tri-fold), 5.667” x 8.5” (11” x 17” tri-fold), 4.25” x 8.5” (double parallel, accordion, roll fold)

Newsletters

Newsletters provide in-depth company updates, promotions, and industry news. They can be folded into smaller sizes for better mailing efficiency. Additionally, we use heavy paper stock to prevent damage during USPS® handling, ensuring that each newsletter arrives in pristine condition.

Sizes: Same as self-mailers, plus 5.667” x 8.5” (11” x 17” tri-fold), 4.25” x 8.5” (double parallel, accordion, roll fold), 5.5” x 8.5” (French fold), 8.5” x 11” (half-fold)

Flats

Flats include larger printed materials such as magazines, catalogs, and oversized postcards. They accommodate extensive content and vivid visuals, making them ideal for high-impact marketing. Unlike smaller mail pieces, flats do not require tabbing or folding. For more information on flats check out our Postal Dictionary page.

Sizes: 6” x 9” (booklets, small directories), 8.5” x 11” (multi-page, stapled), 9” x 12” (Kraft envelopes), EDDM® Mail Pieces.

Ink and Color Options

Cornerstone Services, Inc. offers a wide selection of inks and colors. When working with print materials, it helps to understand color processing terms. For example, “4-over-4” and “1/0” describe how many process colors print on each side of a page. Additionally, selecting the right ink ensures that your materials stand out effectively.

The type of process colors you want to use on your artwork:

Term Meaning
1/0 Greyscale color on front, nothing on back
1/1 Greyscale color on front and on the back
4/0 Full Color printing on the front, nothing on the back
4/1 Full Color printing on the front, greyscale on the back
4/4 Full Color printing on both sides of the artwork

Pre-Press Design Elements

Crop Marks (Crops)

Crop marks act as indicators for where a design will be trimmed. These marks ensure that every printed piece maintains precise cuts. Additionally, they help maintain uniformity across multiple copies, ensuring a polished and professional finish.

Bleeds

Bleeds extend the artwork beyond the final trim size. This prevents unwanted white borders from appearing along the edges. Moreover, crop marks and bleeds work together to maintain print accuracy and professional results. As a result, designs appear seamless and polished, contributing to an overall high-quality print.

Coatings and Finishes

A post-print coating enhances durability and appearance. Gloss, silk, and UV finishes add shine and make colors pop. Meanwhile, matte and uncoated options provide a softer, non-reflective look. Choosing the right finish ensures a polished final product that aligns with your branding.
