In order to match postal norms, newspapers need to be between 12 and 40 pages. A minimum weight and thickness is required to be handled under proper conditions.
Postal drop-off
We're based in Paris, France, and we frequently work with US-based customers. We ship a few thousand copies per month to the USA. The usual turnaround is about 10 business days for the newspapers to reach mailboxes, which is suitable for non-time-sensitive publications. The non-delivery rate is less than 5%.
Plastic-free mailing
In order to provide an eco-friendly service, we have developed a plastic-free mailout service. Your newspaper is routed without any plastic film.
Shipping address and postage stamp are printed directly on a dedicated area of your newspaper.
It's eco-friendly, fast, affordable, and offers a seamless service, without any subcontractor.
In order to meet the required thickness, your newspaper is centre-folded. It improves the delivery quality.
Address page
In order to print the address of each recipient, a specific area of your newspaper needs to be left blank.
You can choose to print the address on the first or last page of your newspaper:
First page
Cover of your newspaper
Last page
4th cover of your newspaper
Address area
You also have to choose the size of the address area. This area must remain blank in order for us to add the recipient address.
3 options are available, depending on how you want to customize the address page:
Half page
Half white page
Half page #2
Half white page + logo
Banner

Tips
- You can add the return address below your logo. Undelivered newspapers will be returned to this address.
- No other address should be visible on this page.
- Banner option provides a slightly less delivery rate, compared to half-page option.
Over-Cover
Over-cover are often chosen by our customers to ensure the protection of their newspapers for mailouts.
An over-cover is an extra sheet of paper that wraps your newspaper, like an envelope.
In order to add an over-cover to your newspaper, you need to add two pages at the beginning and two pages at the end of your PDF file.
You can use these additional pages to add content, such as posters, advertisements, or membership forms. Remember to keep the address area clear.
Here is the detail of a 12-page newspaper:
Page 1: Outer part of the over-cover, with the address area
Page 2: Inner part of the over-cover - left part
Pages 3 to 14: Your 12-pages newspaper
Page 15: Inner part of the over-cover - right part
Page 16: outer part of the over-cover
