Can I Preview My Cards Before I Send Them?
Inked provides a full preview of your card and envelope before it is sent, ensuring that every detail appears exactly as you intend. After selecting your contacts, choosing a cover design, and composing your handwritten note, you will be directed to a "Review & Send" tab. This preview displays both the card and the envelope layout as they will appear when printed and mailed.
This step allows you to carefully review your message for any errors, confirm that your custom design is properly aligned, and verify that the correct recipients and return address are in place. Once you approve the preview and submit your order, changes can no longer be made, as the card will move immediately into production.
If you notice issues during the preview, such as formatting errors or low-quality images, you can return to the previous steps to make adjustments before finalizing your order. For automated or scheduled campaigns, it is recommended to review each send to ensure that all details remain accurate and relevant. If a mistake is discovered after submission, contact support immediately. While edits cannot be guaranteed, there may be a brief window before production begins during which adjustments are possible.
