What Custom Envelope Sizes Are Available
By far, the most common size used for custom envelopes is the #10 (4.125” x 9.5”) configuration. Other sizes that are available include:.- A6 (4.75” x 6.5”)
- A7 (5.25” x 7.25”)
- A9 (5.75” x 8.75”)
- 9” x 12” Booklet Envelope
Each of these sizes are ideal for holding contents that is specific in use such as invitations, and yet versatile enough to contain items that are more generalized like letters on standard-sized paper.
For example #10 envelopes, especially when they are produced with their window option or include a customized graphic like a company logo, are commonly used for financial reports, bank statements, and invoices. Because they are often used in such official capacities, #10 envelopes are often referred to as standard commercial envelopes.
However, #10 envelopes will frequently be used for personal letters that are tri-folded. This is more often the case when they are produced without a window or any corporate graphics.
The facts that #10 envelopes can come with or without window options for official mailings and they can accommodate standard 8.5” x 11” letters are major contributing factors to their popularity of use.
