Frequently asked questions

What size is a postcard?
The standard UK postcard is A6 – 148 × 105 mm (5.8 × 4.1 in). We also print A5 (210 × 148 mm) and DL (210 × 99 mm) postcards.

Why choose pulp postcards?
Pulp is a thick, uncoated board with a natural, textured feel. Colours print slightly softer than on coated card, which suits earthy, minimal and handmade brands – and it's easy to write on.

Can I order a small quantity?
Yes. Type the quantity you need into the custom box and the price updates instantly. A few combinations have a minimum order – the calculator will tell you if so.

How long does delivery take?
Choose Saver, Standard or Express when you order. Your estimated delivery date is shown next to the price before you check out, and delivery to UK addresses is free.

What file should I upload?
A print-ready PDF is best, but JPG, PNG and ZIP files up to 100MB are accepted. For double-sided postcards, put the front on page 1 and the back on page 2 of one PDF. You can also order now and upload your artwork later.
