Turnaround, Proofs, and Print Tips for 6x11 Postcards
Turnaround Time for 6x11 Postcards
We offer three turnaround options for 6x11 card printing. Turnaround time begins only after your artwork is received, approved by our art staff, and sent to production. Properly prepared files will remain on schedule.
Your first turnaround day begins the next business day. Once your artwork is set up, we email you a status update with an estimated ship date.
Digital Proofs for 6x11 Postcards
By default, digital proofs are sent only if selected (+$5). If issues arise concerning bleed, resolution, or size, we email a PDF proof highlighting our concerns (typically within 6–8 business hours). Otherwise, your artwork moves directly to production. Our staff reviews all artwork to ensure 100% satisfaction.
Requesting a digital proof adds one extra business day to turnaround (excluding approval time). Production begins once the artwork is approved.

- Color Mode: Use CMYK to ensure accurate print colors. RGB files may appear muted after conversion. Consider ordering a PDF proof for first-time prints.
