All texts and addresses are written for you with fountain pens, NOT PRINTED
Of course, all letters at PENSAKI are written with REAL FOUNTAIN PENS. This applies to all standard formats (letters 2Go). For individual formats such as postcards, we also use ballpoint pens.
All texts and addresses at PENSAKI are written for you in human handwriting. Of course, we do not use fonts and we do NOT print texts or addresses.
Printing a handwritten message would be completely pointless, as this would mean that the haptic part of the sensory perception would be missing, i.e. a total waste of money and zero surprise and delight.
With PENSAKI all formats can be completely personalized on a content level.
Of course, all messages can be personalized!
Otherwise, what would be the point of sending high-quality letters in handwriting without a personal address? None at all! The personalization of salutations and postal addresses is a standard feature for all Pensaki products. All salutations and addresses are conveniently imported, on the basis of our XLS import template. In addition, you can additionally personalize your handwritten messages by using {{segment}}. It is also possible to personalize entire lines with {{segments}}.
All standard formats are completely unbranded
With our standard formats only the texts and addresses are missing to start the handwriting jobs for you. Of course, we use only completely unbranded stationery. A reference to Pensaki is therefore not possible. It is practically the same as if you were writing on this paper.
With our individual formats, we can also write handwritten messages to letters, cards, or postcards printed especially for you. This option is already available to you from 250 pieces. Simply send us the PDF print data based on the print template we provide. In this way, we reduce the environmentally harmful transport of paper.
“Characters including spaces” always refers to the maximum possible number of characters for the format, plus the postal address label. For e.g. 400 characters refer to a text length of up to 400 characters including spaces for the text, anyway additionally up to 200 characters for the postal addressing of the envelopes or postcards
Each format is determined by two parameters: The number of text lines and the maximum number of characters per line (including spaces). These values are determined per format in such a way that the legibility with fountain pen or ballpoint pen by the recipients is guaranteed.
