The Form Format screen allows you to configure the information that FTD Mercury prints on forms. You can configure the following forms:

Trifold Card
The TriFold Card form in FTD Mercury allows you to print on a 4×9½-inch trifold card. The card itself consists of three sections. The upper section (3×4 inches) is for the card message. The middle section (3¼×4 inches) is for care instructions. The bottom section (3¼×4 inches) is for the recipient name and address.
Trifold cards require a printer capable of handling the smaller paper size. For more information, contact FTD Technology Sales at 1-800-767-3222 or email TechSales@FTDi.com. |
By default, FTD Mercury leaves a ¼ inch border on all sides of the card message section so you can use imprinted cards for you shop. Additionally, FTD Mercury leaves a ½ inch border at the bottom of the recipient section so you can use cards with your store logo (if desired).
There is only one section available to print for the TriFold card: Card. You can select whether you want to print the following information:
- Recipient Phone
- Delivery Date
- Time Detail
- Delivery Zone
- Order No
- Care Instructions
When you select Sympathy as the Occasion Code in Order Entry or Point of Sale, legal-sized invoices print the acknowledgment address (the sender’s address) instead of the care instructions. Clearing this option does not prevent the acknowledgment address from printing. - Bar Code
- Store Name
- Borders
- Center Tray - When this option is selected, FTD Mercury assumes the card is in the center of a tray. When cleared, FTD Mercury assumes the card is in the left side of the tray. Configure this setting as appropriate for your card stock location in the tray.
By default, all information will print for the TriFold Card form except for Borders. If you do not print borders, you can easily use imprinted paper for your trifold cards.
Guarantees, available on cards for the Billing Invoice (Legal) and Working Invoice (Legal), are not available for the TriFold Card form. |
