Indicia Positioning Template for the Small Design

3.2 Indicia Size

The top and right hand edge of the indicia zone (as set out in the above Indicia Template) should be aligned exactly to the top and right hand edges of the envelope.The Indicia must be printed within the Indicia zone (70mm across by 30mm deep with a 5mm clear zone). The Whistl unique licence number will be incorporated within the Royal Mail Access Indicator for use by the Customer. Mailings will not be accepted unless all mailing items show the licence number, which matches the account to which the mailing will be charged. Mailing items carrying any other Royal Mail indicia (For example Mailsort 1/2/3 or Presstream) or the access indicia of another carrier or Royal Mail customer shall not be posted under the Agreement.

There are 2 specified sizes for the Whistl Indicia and three types of designs the customer can choose from when pre-printing the indicia onto a mail item. The Whistl indicia ideally should be printed in black on white or light coloured paper. Other coloured indicia’s are possible, as long as they are in contrast by at least 50% in tone with the envelopes. This should always be checked with Whistl prior to printing. Note: The indicia must always be the darker in colour printed against a lighter background. Where an all over colour is used on an envelope, it is best to frame the whole indicia area in a rectangle and leave a 2mm white (or light) border around it. Any variation in size or colour from the specification above will need to be checked through the TNT Post before use.
