For a long time, correspondence was sent to Europe,skillfully folding letters in triangles, which were then stamped with a wax seal. The first envelope was invented by Mr. Brever - a manufacturer from the city of Brighton, who produces paper. He made a pack of simple paper bags and offered them to his clients for free, recommending sending letters to them directly. The first correspondence sent to them made a furore. The society liked this novelty so much that everyone started using packages to send any documents. Initially, they glued them themselves, and the envelope was not fixed by anyone.
Each correspondent wrote an address, likewherever he wishes. Later in England, they launched the first typewriter, manufacturing postal envelopes, intended for gluing with wax seal, and only by the end of the 19th century did they glue only their valves. At the same time, they were released in a separate color for each day of the week. The introduction of the postmark, and then the stamp, entailed more requirements for the design of correspondence. Even then, the postal workers began to demand that the envelope be filled in accordance with the rules common to all.
As in those times, and now, the speeddelivery a considerable influence was rendered by the qualitative filling of the envelope. Letters sent in properly issued packages always go faster. Unlike e-mail, material correspondence is much more appreciated. This is a thing that can be kept for a long memory, so the postal envelopes and today not only do not lose their relevance, but also occupy an extensive segment in the printing industry. Today, a lot of software is developed that allows you to quickly and accurately design correspondence using a computer. But if it is done manually, then it is necessary to adhere to common rules agreed in the international format.
So, filling out the envelopes to sendcorrespondence within Russia and CIS countries should be done in Russian. Letters sent to foreign countries should be made in English, while it is possible to duplicate the address in the state language of the recipient.
You should not allow careless fillingenvelope, the letters must be legible, the words clearly visible and understandable. In the right corner, below the mark, you must first specify the name and surname of the recipient, then his home address. After that, you need to write the name of the settlement, district and region. In conclusion - the country and postal code of the addressee.
Your name, name and detailed address should also be indicated on the front side of the envelope, but in the upper left corner of the envelope. True, there are countries in which the data of the sender is indicated on the back.
