second embodiment
[0049]FIGS. 2A and 2B illustrate a one-way mailer, designated as 200, in which the addressee information and barcode data 210, as well as the return address indicia 208, are printed in mirror image on the rear face of the transparent windowed areas 104, 106 respectively. Mirror image printing is known in the art and fonts that perform this function, such as “PRMirror” are easily downloaded from the Internet. The benefit of this embodiment is the improvement in clarity of the indicia as observed from the front of the envelope, since the indicia 208 and 210 are printed directly onto transparent windows 106 and 104, respectively, which is important when being scanned by the U.S. Postal Service.
third embodiment
[0050]FIG. 3A-3F illustrate the recyclable single-sheet mailer, which is a two-way mailer 300 that incorporates a return envelope attached to the bottom of a single mailer sheet in which the original addressee may send back an insert, such as a check, to a predetermined address. As in the previous embodiments, the first panel 116 has two transparent window areas 104, 106 for the addressee and return addressee indicia 154, 152, respectively.
[0051] As shown in FIG. 3A, the front side of the two-way mailer 300 has bottom panels 304 and 306 separated by fold line 310. The return envelope portion is formed by moistening adhesive areas 316, 318 and folding the bottom panel 306 so that it lies against, and is adhesively bonded to, panel 304.
embodiment 300
[0052] Referring now to FIG. 3B, the rear face 304′ of the third panel 304 forms the front of the return envelope and has address indicia 334 as well as addressee barcode indicia 332 disposed thereon. Furthermore, a Facing Identification Mark (FIM) 330 and a field 336 for placing postage is defined on the front face of the return envelope. The rear face 306′ forms the back of the return envelope and has a two-dimensional barcode 340 disposed thereon. Over twenty different two-dimensional bar code symbologies are currently available and provide high-density storage of information along the height as well as the length of the symbol. Non-limiting, the QR Code 340 shown in present embodiment 300 is capable of encoding 7,336 numeric characters, or 4,464 alphanumeric characters.
[0053]FIG. 3C, in conjunction with FIGS. 3A and 3B, illustrates the method by which the two-way mailer is folded prior to being send to the business customer. After the return envelope has been formed, adhesive st...
