FAQ
Photo postcards are typically rectangular, at least 3-1/2 inches high x 5 inches long x 0.007 inches thick and no more than 4-1/4 inches high x 6 inches long x 0.016 inches thick. This makes them close to 4 x 6, or qualified postcard size.
First, choose the photo or photos you want to use for the postcard. You might customize the back of your photo to look more like a postcard, with a vertical off-centered line to separate the address area from the message area.
To print a photo postcard, you simply need to print your photo, making sure it’s the correct dimensions to be sent in the mail. You don’t need to add a photo to a standard postcard; you can simply send the photo as a postcard in the mail.
