The resolution of your image must be at least 300 dpi (dots per inch) to get a good postcard print. Otherwise, your postcard will end up with pixelated images. Also our standard files types are jpg, png, giv and svg. Make sure that you follow these when you upload.
As for postcard design standards, bleeds must be part of your postcard design file. This means that the image must extend beyond the bleed marks to make sure that no white edges are visible after cutting.
With U-Printing’s online design tool, each blank template comes with bleed and trim marks to guide you during design and layout. Using our pre-made templates is an easier and faster option.
The standard size for postcards is 4.25” x 6” but we have various measurements such as pre-set sizes of 4” x 6”, 5” x 7”, 5.5” x 8.5”, 6” x 9” and 6” x 11”. Should you need specific dimensions, you can modify the size from 4” x 6” up to 8.5” x 11” at increments of 0.25”.
The ease of designing online and using your templates was fantastic. Your design team resized my original file after I messed up and it looks great.Lisa S., Woburn, MA

We're fairly new clients after being with 48HourPrint.com for years. Your pricing is better and we are happy with your service and assistance to-date. Keep doing what you're doing!Scott B., Ashburnham, MA
I looked at several other websites for postcards online. Yours was by far the easiest to manuver and to upload and submit my file. I appreciate the fact that you will review it prior to producing the postcards. Very important customer service step. The other sites wanted so many specs resolved prior to uploading I did not even bother to try. Thanks!Dave T., Le Roy, AL
