Getting Started

When creating a mailing through LetterStream, you’ll need to tell the system where to pull the recipient address information from. This guide walks you through the three options available so you can choose the one that best fits your document type and workflow.

Using an Address List (CSV)

Choose the Address List option if:

  • You have addresses stored in an Excel spreadsheet.
  • You can save the spreadsheet as a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file.

This method is ideal for bulk mailings and gives you full control over address formatting. For an address list template, click here.

Using My Document for Addresses

Choose the My Document option if:

  • Your PDF already contains recipient addresses.
  • Each recipient in the document receives the same number of pages.
  • The address appears in the same location on every page.

Note: The PDF must be text-based for LetterStream to read the addresses. Scanned or image-based PDFs may not be compatible.

Using the LetterStream Address Book

Choose the LetterStream Address Book option if:

  • You frequently send mail to the same addresses.
  • You prefer to manually enter and manage addresses in your account.

This method allows you to:

  • Reuse saved addresses for future mailings.
  • Edit or update existing entries at any time.
