  • Patent number: 6460760
    Abstract: An intermediate for a mailer type business form is provided that is Z-folded to produce a mailer type business form with built-in reply envelope. The mailer type business form is adapted to be used either as a mailing label or as a one-piece mailer. The mailer is of compact size, for example, about 7 inches×4 inches so as to facilitate its use as a mailing label on relatively small packages. First and second panels of the mailer define a reply envelope when the mailer is Z-folded. The third panel of the mailer is adapted to include invoice and/or remittance advice and may include a line of weakness to define a stub that can be inserted in the reply envelope with a check. The intermediate is printed in a rotated format to provide two forms about fourteen inches and also has rewettable glue and additional cohesive to create a postal compatible reply envelope.
