A2 Announcement Envelope Printing in South Jersey

The A2 envelope is the classic choice for thank-you notes, RSVP cards, invitations, announcements, and personalized correspondence. Designed to fit a 4.25" × 5.5" insert, it’s the standard envelope for A2 greeting cards, response cards, note cards, and announcement cards.

Bellia prints custom A2 announcement envelopes in full color or black ink with your logo, return address, and custom artwork. Printed locally in Woodbury, New Jersey, our A2 envelopes are ideal for businesses, nonprofits, schools, churches, event planners, and individuals throughout South Jersey.

CUSTOMER QUESTIONS

A2 Envelopes — Frequently Asked Questions

What size card fits in an A2 envelope?

An A2 envelope is designed to hold a standard 4.25" × 5.5" card, making it a popular choice for thank-you cards, RSVP cards, note cards, announcements, and small greeting cards.

What is the difference between A2, A6, and A7 envelopes?

All three are announcement-style envelopes, but each accommodates a different card size. A2 envelopes measure 4.375" × 5.75" and fit 4.25" × 5.5" cards. A6 envelopes measure 4.75" × 6.5" and are commonly used for larger note cards and invitations. A7 envelopes measure 5.25" × 7.25" and are commonly used for wedding invitations, holiday cards, and formal announcements.

What are A2 envelopes commonly used for?

A2 envelopes are commonly used for thank-you cards, RSVP cards, note cards, announcements, customer appreciation cards, donor acknowledgments, invitations, and other compact correspondence. They are a good choice when you want a smaller presentation than an A6 or A7 envelope.

Can recipient and return addresses be printed directly on A2 envelopes?

Yes. Bellia can use variable data printing (VDP) to print recipient names, recipient addresses, and return addresses directly on A2 envelopes. Personalized addressing is useful for invitations, announcements, greeting cards, donor acknowledgments, customer appreciation mailings, and response envelopes.

Can I order matching cards and A2 envelopes?

Yes. Bellia can produce coordinated fold-over greeting cards, flat cards, and matching A2 envelopes for a polished, consistent presentation. If you need help coordinating the design, our graphic design team can help.

Do A2 envelopes require bleed?

No. Standard A2 envelope artwork should be prepared without bleed. Keep important text, logos, return addresses, and other design elements inside the safe area shown on the production template and away from postage, addressing, gripper, and other restricted printing areas.

What file format should I use for A2 envelope printing?

Submit a print-ready PDF or high-resolution JPG prepared in CMYK color mode. Use our A2 envelope template to confirm the correct finished size, safe area, postage placement, and address-clearance zones. No bleed or crop marks are required. Before submitting your order, carefully review your artwork, spelling, layout, and sizing to make sure everything is correct.

Can I see a proof before my A2 envelopes are printed?

Yes. After uploading your artwork and adding your A2 envelopes to the shopping cart, you can download a low-resolution PDF proof before proceeding to checkout. Use the proof to review artwork placement, sizing, orientation, return-address placement, and overall appearance. Carefully check spelling, names, addresses, and other important information before completing your order. If Bellia’s in-house design team creates or prepares your envelope artwork, we’ll provide a design proof for your approval before it goes to print.

Do larger quantities lower the cost per envelope?

In many cases, ordering larger quantities reduces the cost per envelope, making custom A2 envelopes more economical for invitations, stationery, recurring correspondence, nonprofit communications, customer appreciation mailings, and business use. Request a custom quote for larger runs or special project requirements.
