• We set out to compose a lot of articles called
  "Frequently Asked Questions About Envelopes," but
  we immediately ran into a problem. If the
  customer knows nothing about envelopes, in what
  manner will they even realize what questions to
  ask about Padded Envelopes? The universe of
  envelopes can be labyrinthian now and again - so
  we went about it another way.
• Part 1 All About Padded Envelopes
• Delineated here in our first article is the
  important information you should know before
  ordering printed envelopes, as well as many of
  the alternatives you may be asked to browse.
• If you are recently in charge of ordering
  envelopes for the manager, and you would prefer
  not to resemble a sham, we can help.

• Or on the other hand if you have started your own
  company, and stationery is the last thing at the
  forefront of your thoughts, we can help with that
  as well.
• When you talk to your sales representative, she
  may assume you're an envelope master, like
  herself, and start to rattle off sorts of
  envelopes, kinds of stock, window sizes... Try
  not to lose trust. Here are a couple of the most
  basic things to think about the envelopes
  themselves.
• What are the Standard Sizes of Padded Envelopes?
• For standard-sized mailings, this is what all
  those bills you get in the mail are
  affectionately wrapped in. Fits collapsed 8.5 x
  11 stationery. Check with your mail station for
  mass mailing discount postage on these! (9.125 x
  4.5)

• Also called an "answer" envelope. Fits inside a
  10 so the beneficiary can answer with it (and
  pay those bills). (8.875 X 3.875)
• Also called a "check" envelope. It's sufficiently
  enormous to send money!
• Remittance Padded Envelopes
• For donation demands. Generally utilized by
  houses of worship, charities, and alumni
  organizations. These come in three basic sizes,
  contingent upon the amount you have to print on
  them (or how much beseeching you have to do).
• These are mailed to the beneficiary inside a
  larger envelope, like a 10, and the liberal
  contributors send them back to you, like an
  answer.

• Drive Ups, Teller Helpers, and Bangtails - That
  last one may sound funny, but these are all for
  banks. They have special flaps for holding money
  and making stores. Sizes vary contingent upon
  your printer. If you work at a bank, hopefully,
  you know which ones you need!
• Coins - The banks utilize these little folks for
  coins, but many gem specialists, locksmiths, and
  anyone else who needs to monitor little stuff,
  has them printed up.
• Key Cards or Credit Cards - The cool little
  Padded Envelopes that hold your inn key or a gift
  card.
• Florist - Used generally by florists to accompany
  arrangements (as the name recommends) these are
  also an exceptionally charming way to exhibit a
  gift card!

• Baronial - These Padded Envelopes are shaped like
  small greeting card envelopes (less long and
  rectangular than a 10 for instance). These are
  for announcements or essentially when you want an
  increasingly elegant look (subsequently the
  elegant name). They come in various sizes.
• Big Envelopes - 6 X 9s, 9 X 12s, 10 X 13s...
  darn, these don't have any special funny names (a
  few people call them booklets and catalogs, but
  we'll get into that chaos later). You can utilize
  them for sending archives or pieces of
  literature. They are usually offered in all sorts
  of durable stock so they don't tear when you
  stuff all your treats inside.
• Custom - Most printers work with large suppliers
  that can overlay custom Padded Envelopes. If
  you've created a printed piece that you just
  can't stand to see collapsed, or if your
  customers have an eye for the novel, chances are
  your printer can have some special envelopes
  made.
