Here at Vervante, we’re fortunate to have clients from all over the world. We love how unique each one is – and the amazing variety they bring to the products we help them create. When products cross borders, however, often the “standards” are very different. Let’s look at one of the most common conversion scenarios – the standard letter size.
Here in the U.S. and Canada, standard letter size is 8.5 x 11 inches.
International users have a standard called A4, which is slightly thinner and longer, at 21 x 29.7cm (8.25 x 11.67 inches).
The image shows very simply the difference. Most of the time, if you are sharing digital products such as ebooks, pdfs, or download of any kind, this isn’t an issue. But for products that are printed it can cause problems.
If you have customers in other countries, or you are based internationally, they will love you for thinking of them when you create your next products. We can print in A4 size for any of our products that need it, including hard cover and paperback books, spiral training manuals, binders and tabs, journals, note cards, stationery, and more. It’s easy to make the change. Questions? Need help? Email us at [email protected] and we’ll help you get it done.
When I started Vervante 15 years ago I took a huge leap of faith and followed my intuition that there was a genuine need for print-on-demand solutions and I was going to fill that need. Now here we are 15 years later and I want to thank you for being part of that journey. I am personally very grateful for your business and your trust in our company. Every day my team and I strive to continuously grow and improve so that we can provide you with an awesome experience.
Vervante started with a leap of faith and a mad dash during a short window of opportunity after I’d been working in the industry for 22 years (17 years as an exec at Xerox, followed by 5 years at Fatbrain.com, a Silicon Valley startup).
Fifteen years later, we have amazing and awesome customers, like you, who have helped inspire and guide us into the business we are today. As the Thanksgiving season approaches, I feel inspired to share with you my sincere gratitude for your support, your business, and your loyalty. If there is anything we can do for you, new services or products that you would like us to offer, please let me know. It is our pleasure to work with you and your team and we hope to do so for many more years.
This time of year the orders for creating custom cards are rolling in. Thank you cards, holiday cards, cards branded with business logos, messages, photos and graphics. We love them and it’s so much fun helping to create these for our customers to share around the world. But really, cards are great any time of year. Whether you share them freely, or use them to support your business, they are perfectly adaptable for any creative ideas.
