anyone know the regulation size for an address block on the back cover of a catalog?
i've searched the USPS site like whoa and can't find it

depends on how it's going out... and type of postal rate – is a mailhouse handling the address lists?
talk to your printer/mailhouse first, then walk it in to a regional branch (not a smaller local branch) and talk to someone there – or call ahead first to find the right person.
I take it it's knocked out of artwork/photography?

give-or-take:
1 - 1.25 x 2.25 - 2.75

i'm talking the whole area, not just the address block... the upper part is an order form, but i need to know how much of the bottom right hand area has to be blocked out to include the indicia, return address, block + any area for postal barcodes...
i'm not sure how they're doing the mail merge, but i'll find out if that dictates it.

i found this out.. just as an FYI: the block must be 2.5x4.25in with the longer side perpendicular to the spine, placed at the top or bottom. it must be free of any graphics and color except for the return address and endicia.
