It details standard postcard sizes, including 4.25”x5.5”, 4”x6”, 5”x7”, 6”x8”, 6”x9”, and 6”x11”. For raster images, a minimum resolution of 300dpi is required, and the typesize for text should be at least 9pt. Specific clear space requirements are provided for the mailing side: a 1”x1” area in the upper right for indicia/postage and a 2”x4” area in the lower right for the address. The document also specifies bleed and print margins, requiring an additional 0.125” (1/8 inch) for bleeds, meaning a 6”x11” postcard with bleed would have a total size of 6.25”x11.25”. Copy and graphics that do not bleed must be kept within 0.125” of the postcard's edge. Designers are instructed to include all placed images and fonts if available. The preferred file formats for submission are Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, or PDF. The document also mentions that full design services are available for clients who do not have artwork. Visual diagrams illustrate the placement of bleeds, print margins, postage, and address areas on the postcard.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/","Template",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/posters/","Posters",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/postcard-design-specifications/249496/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/postcard-design-specifications/249496.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":42,"@type":43},"McGucket","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-12","2026-09-12",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",15,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What are the standard sizes for postcards?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"The standard sizes for postcards are 4.25”x5.5”, 4”x6”, 5”x7”, 6”x8”, 6”x9”, or 6”x11”.","Answer",{"name":66,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":67},"What are the resolution and typesize requirements for postcard design?",{"text":68,"@type":64},"Raster images must be at least 300dpi, and the typesize for text should be at least 9pt.",{"name":70,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":71},"What are the clear space requirements for the mailing side of a postcard?",{"text":72,"@type":64},"The mailing side requires a 1”x1” clear space in the upper right for indicia/postage and a 2”x4” clear space in the lower right for the address.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":32,"og:type":75,"og:title":10,"og:site_name":45,"og:description":12},"article",{"robots":77,"canonical":32},"index,follow",{"doc_id":79,"site_id":7},249496,1790351569,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":83},"success",[84,89,94,99,102,107,112,117,122],{"id":85,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":86,"show_sort_weight":87,"slug":88},11,"Presentations",90,"presentations",{"id":90,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":91,"show_sort_weight":92,"slug":93},12,"Resumes",80,"resumes",{"id":95,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},14,"Invoices",70,"invoices",{"id":55,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":100,"slug":101},60,"posters",{"id":103,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":104,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":106},16,"Social Media",50,"social-media",{"id":108,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":109,"show_sort_weight":110,"slug":111},17,"Forms",40,"forms",{"id":113,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":114,"show_sort_weight":115,"slug":116},18,"Letters",30,"letters",{"id":118,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":119,"show_sort_weight":120,"slug":121},21,"Paper Templates",5,"papers-templates",{"id":123,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":4,"slug":125},158,"General","general-158",{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":127},{"doc_id":79,"user_id":128,"nickname":42,"user_avatar":129,"doc_module":22,"category_id":55,"category_name":29,"doc_title":10,"doc_description":12,"doc_content":130,"file_id":131,"file_url":132,"file_type":133,"file_size":134,"view_count":55,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":22,"is_downloadable":22,"audit_status":22,"page_count":22,"language":135,"language_code":8,"site_id":7,"html_lang":8,"table_of_contents":136,"faqs":137,"seo_title":138,"seo_description":12,"update_tm":139,"read_time":4},1236954412713,"https://us-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_29158cc5080c5b710cf443261637dec0","Postcard Design Specifications:  \n-Standard Sizes: 4.25” x 5 .5“, 4”x6“, 5”x7”, 6”x8”, 6 x9”, or 6”x 11”  \n-Raster images must be at least 300dpi  \n-Typesize should be at least 9pt  \n-On the mailing side, there must be a 1”x1” clear space in upper right for indicia/postage  \n-On the mailing side, there must be a 2”x4” clear space for the address to be printed in lower right  \n-For bleeds, add additional . 125”(1/8 inch) outside edge.
