If you are looking for an envelop that fits a twice-folded A4 size document (to create three sections), then you may want to consider using a DL envelope (where DL stands for Dimension Lengthwise). DL envelopes have a measurement of 220 millimeter in width and 110 millimeter in height. You can choose a DL envelope which is plain, or an envelop with prints, or one that comes with a window.

You can also choose between a gummed DL envelope and a self sealing DL envelope. Gummed DL envelope is a lot cheaper than a self sealing DL envelope. In gummed envelop, you need to moisten its flap, which usually has a glue on it, by licking or by applying very small amount of water. In a self sealing DL envelope, it is no longer necessary to moisten its flap because it comes with strips of glue that can be sealed when you peel the strips and press them together.

DL envelopes are usually used when the documents that you would be sending out are not for official purposes because as you fold your letter into two, you create the unprofessional looking creases. For this reason, a DL envelope is best use when you are sending a short correspondence or a one-page letter only. Keep in mind that you must fold your document twice. Otherwise, your document may not be appropriate in a DL envelope.

If you are running a business and would want to customize your DL envelopes, you can actually tap the services of printing agencies to create a well-designed envelop for your company. Having a customized DL envelope would help you create the business image that you want to convey to your customers and suppliers. Remember that it is the envelop that your correspondents will initially see, and not its content.
