Technology-Infused Tri-Fold Mailer - 60-Second Fold of the Week
This week, we're highlighting how a creative, high-tech solution can be applied to an everyday classic — the tri-fold.

So, they needed an invitation that would generate lots of buzz. By using an HP Indigo digital press, plus hyper-variability and personalization technology, the invitations actually became wearable! You'll have to watch to see how it works. We think you'll love this week's tech-savvy mailer!
