Info
Publishing Xpress provides comprehensive newsletter printing services. Our strength lies not just with our equipment and technical savvy, but in our ability to handle each printing project that comes our way with a keen eye, hands-on approach, and a commitment to get it done fast, get it done right, and get it done most affordably.
Turnaround
Our normal production time for newsletter printing is 3 business days after proof approval. Weekends and holidays are not counted in the business day calculation.
Expedited production times include:
2 business days after proof approval for an additional 10%
1 business day after proof approval for an additional 25%
Same business day as proof approval for an additional 100%
Before ordering, please call us to make sure we can do same day processing. Whether we can do it depends on how early in the day we receive your file and how many copies you need.
These production times only include processing within our facility. They do not include UPS shipping days to your location. Please see the shipping page to determine how many days it will take for UPS to deliver your order by ground service, which varies from 1 to 4 business days. UPS also offers overnight, 2nd day, and 3-day shipping options for an additional charge. Don’t forget that orders over $399 get free UPS ground shipping.
Once you add your order to your cart and start the checkout process, you can input your zip code and get an estimate of UPS shipping charges for all shipping options (ground, 3 day, 2 day, and overnight). While we will charge you actual UPS shipping costs, we have found that these estimates are very accurate.
Sizes
For newsletter printing, we offer three standard sizes:
But you are by no means limited to printing those sizes. We can print any size up to 11 x 17 inches. Custom sizes are never an issue.
When printing custom sizes up to 11 x 17 inches, just use the price calculator for the next largest standard size. For instance, if you want to print a 7 x 10 inch flat sheet, use the 8½ x 11 inch calculator.

All of our papers are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) or Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) as being responsibly forested. All of our standard paper stocks contain 10% to 30% post consumer waste content.

File Setup
Your newsletter printing files must be submitted as high-resolution PDF files, which will embed fonts and graphics. This will ensure that nothing on your page will shift or move to another page, which often happens when the native file is opened on another computer. Before uploading your newsletter printing file, please review every page of your PDF to make sure it is correct.
You will have the opportunity to upload your newsletter printing files during the ordering process.
Your customer service rep will review your printing order before it is printed and again before it is shipped. They will often notice things like layering issues, low-resolution graphics, and even typos at times. If they notice a printing issue with your order, they will contact you so that it can be corrected. We cannot guarantee that we will notice all issues with a particular order.
