Cheap Letterhead Printing Ideas

Printing your letterhead in full colour enhances your brand identity and reinforces your image when sending letters, or products to your customers. Differentiate from typical one or two colour letterheads by simulating a custom watermark, adding a design to the back side, or anything else you can think of! Complete the effect by adding a full colour envelope and create a fully customised professional stationery package.

A complete brand identity always includes letterheads. Invoices, receipts, or any formal correspondence should always be printed on company letterheads so your customers will know who sent them a letter. PrinSmarter.com.uk offers letterhead printing so your logo and contact information are delivered to your customers in bright perfect colour. We also offer stationery packs where you can get compliment slips, letterheads, and business cards - all for one very good price. Check it out by clicking on the category menu.

Basic Information

Letterheads should always include a logo and basic contact information. Most businesses divide the content of letterheads between a header (at the top) and the footer (at the bottom) - and the same with compliment slips. By breaking the information into parts, you leave more room on the bulk of your page for the content of your letter. Backgrounds should be subtle so that your content remains readable - however saying that sometimes a bold colour has the exact same effect.

The header typically contains the logo, colour scheme, and basic contact information. The size of the header can vary. Use the far left, center, and far right for information and try to leave some space between each item of information; otherwise, your header can look cluttered and crammed. As a final note, try to avoid using fonts smaller than 8 points so that the reader will have no problem reading the information.

The footer can also include basic contact information, but more formal copyright, business entity, and disclaimers are also reserved for the footer. Once again, use no smaller than an 8pt font. Consider including colour themes in the footer, such as a hairline bar, separating the footer from the body content, as this can tie the brand together across the page.

Background images are a great way to add spice to your letterhead and compliment slip printing, but keep it subtle. If backgrounds are too intense, your copy may not be readable. Imagine black text across a dark gray or red image in the background - as text runs across the background image it can become nearly invisible in these examples.
