Frequently Asked Questions
DL is the standard UK envelope size, so a slip cut to that dimension slots straight into a DL envelope alongside a folded A4 letter without needing to be trimmed or folded awkwardly to fit. It's the practical reason DL has become the default size for compliment slips rather than an arbitrary choice.
Yes, those formats are accepted, but a high resolution PDF generally gives the most reliable result since it preserves vector text and graphics at full sharpness. A JPEG or PNG will still print fine as long as it's supplied at 300dpi or higher at the correct finished size, it's just more prone to looking soft if the original file is too small or heavily compressed.
It's worth it if you know slips will regularly be signed or annotated by hand, leaving a clear area rather than filling the whole slip with printed content. If the slip is purely informational and won't be written on, there's no need to hold space back specifically for that.
It still makes a difference in hand, 90gsm feels light and simple, 120gsm is a solid everyday choice with a bit more substance, and 170gsm feels noticeably sturdier and more premium. For a slip going out with every order, 90 or 120gsm keeps costs sensible, while 170gsm suits something you want to feel a bit more considered, like a slip included with a higher value product.
