The everyday business envelope

The #10 is the envelope most US offices use for letters, invoices and statements. At 9 1/2 inches wide it leaves plenty of room for a return address in the corner and a recipient block placed well inside the read area that sorting machines scan.

Setting up

  1. Paste the recipients with a blank line between each.
  2. Type your return address, or a company name and address.
  3. Download the PDF, then print page 1 alone as a test.
  4. Print the rest once the test lines up.

Getting the feed right

Most office printers feed #10 envelopes short edge first with the flap closed, but the direction differs between models. Turn on placement guides, print on plain paper, then mark which edge came out first. Put an envelope in the same way and print one before the batch.

Printing tips

Choose the #10 or Com-10 envelope size in the print dialog and print at 100%. If envelopes curl after printing, let them cool flat under a book before stacking.

Can I print a batch of business letters' envelopes?

Yes. Paste every address with a blank line between them; the PDF has one #10 page per address, in the same order.
