    Foldover Card Stock

    Foldover cards include front and back printing. Inside printing will be flat printing (not thermography) unless otherwise requested. There is no additional charge for thermography printing on the inside.

    Foldover cards are set as even fold cards unless otherwise requested. Even fold cards are 3.5 inches wide x 4 inches high, folded in half to make two layers of 3.5 x 2. Short folds are also available. With short folds, the same size card is folded so the top is shorter than the bottom. Original size remains 3.5 inches x 4 inches. You must specify short fold measurement.
