This website allows you to print and mail a document to any US address, including to yourself.

I made it for people like me who lack a printer and/or envelopes/stamps.

I mainly use it to print stuff out for myself, send forms that have to be mailed (insurance claims, government forms, etc.) as well as save money / time vs. going to a print shop.

I apologize for the need to setup an account - given the need to upload docs, I felt this was important. If there's sufficient interest, I can setup a logged out flow.

I would love to hear feedback. Thanks for taking a look!

The mail is slow and faltering, as well as expensive, yet emails aren't always a good answer to the need for communication... I find my guts seizing up, just a little - but that's all it takes to mess up the flow of thought that pours onto the page. I like to sit in the dappled sunlight and think of my friend, as I write.

I take photos of my completed handwritten letters. I send the photos as email attachments, and keep copies too.

I can do much the same with forms, but I find I have to point out the existence of the attachments in the main body of the text.

Isn't it always better to get it printed from a local print shop? So we'll get it instantly. (Not from the US btw)
