There are three different kinds of flaps on envelopes.

Business, Pointed and Square. Pointed and Square are also known as  “Baronial” and “A”

Pointed or "A" Envelope

Envelopes are described by their size and flap.

For example, if you wanted to buy pointed flap envelopes for 5″ by 7″ invitations, you would request an “7 BAR” envelope.

If you wanted a square flap envelope instead, ask for an  “A-7″ envelope.

Poly Graphics uses a 7 BAR envelope for most orders. We also have an upgrade to an  A-7 lined envelope, with linings available in Gold, Silver, and Red.
