What are EDDM Postcards?

EDDM (Every Door Direct Mail) is a USPS program that lets you target local neighborhoods without buying a mailing list. Just pick the zip codes or carrier routes you want, and we will deliver your postcards to every address in that area—residential or business.

Our Full-Service EDDM handles everything: printing, bundling, USPS paperwork, and delivery to the post office. It is the easiest way to promote your business locally.

How to Save Your Files for Print

To ensure the best print results, follow these file setup guidelines when preparing your artwork:

File Setup Checklist

Resolution: 300 dpi
Bleed: 1/8" (0.125") on all sides
Color Mode: CMYK (or spot colors when applicable)
File Format: PDF (with fonts embedded or outlined)

Important Notes

• Make sure images are not compressed (turn off downsampling when exporting)
• Backgrounds that touch the edge must extend 0.125" beyond the trim line (bleed)
• You may include crop marks, but do not include file names or timestamps — it can throw off the layout
• Embed or outline all fonts to ensure crisp, clean text and avoid font errors
