Postcards print on our Xerox Versant digital colour press, which handles short-to-medium runs with sharp text and consistent colour across the batch. Standard stocks are 14-pt and 16-pt cardstock, coated one or both sides, in matte or gloss finish. For added shelf appeal, we can apply a gloss or matte UV coating across the full sheet, or a raised spot-UV accent on the logo or headline using our Duplo Spot Coater. Postcards are guillotine-cut to Canada Post-compliant sizes for direct mail campaigns.

Frequently Asked Questions
Canada Post's Personalized Mail rates cover pieces from 5 x 3.5 inches up to 9.5 x 6 inches. Common runs are 4 x 6, 5 x 7, and 6 x 9. We cut to your exact dimensions so the finished piece qualifies for the rate you want.
14-pt is our standard postcard weight, sturdy enough for mailing but easy to write on. 16-pt is noticeably thicker and stiffer, closer to a business card feel, better for high-end campaigns or hand-outs where the card should feel substantial. Both are available coated or uncoated.
We print, cut, and prep the cards. For the mailing itself, we work with a local mail house who handles list processing, addressing, and lodging with Canada Post. Send us your list with the print order and we coordinate the handoff.
Full-sheet gloss UV can resist ink from ballpoint pens and inkjet addressing systems. If the card is being addressed after printing, we leave the address panel uncoated or use a matte UV that accepts ink normally. Tell us how the card gets addressed and we'll spec the coating.
Yes. The Xerox Versant handles variable-data printing straight from a CSV or Excel list, so each postcard can carry a unique name, offer code, or QR link. Common uses are personalized offers, appointment reminders, and split-tested direct mail.
