    ​Hi. I have 7,500 charcoal gray envelopes that I need to address with white ink. Does anyone have a source they can recommend?

    ​Watch the DMMM rules.  You may be able to print an address in white (not sure), you can not print a barcode in white.

    Good morning and Happy Veteran's Day

    I would like to remind you that if you print the address in white, the piece will be considered a non-machinable letter.  The USPS does not have the ability to read reverse printing on their automated equipment and the mail will need to be sorted by hand.

    On this Veteran's Day, I would personally like to thank any members who are Vets for their service and suggest that we all make sure toady or tomorrow,  to personally show your appreciation to someone in uniform.

    Have a awesome weekend.

    We can use "reverse" fonts to print variable white text, but they require printing a white substrate. Here's some examples:
    Reverse Display Type - Fonts.com
    Fonts.com remove preview
    Reverse Display Type - Fonts.com
    Reversing type - that is, placing light or white type against a darker background - is a useful way to add emphasis as well as to help develop a strong typographic hierarchy. A reverse headline can provide an inviting, eye-catching point of entry, signaling the viewer to "look here" before moving on to the other elements.
