Maine DHHS 04976 6 x 9 IMB brm.pdf

This file is a Business Reply Mail (BRM) envelope template specification document issued by the Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Office for Family Independence, located in Skowhegan, Maine. The document provides detailed artwork and layout specifications for 6" x 9" business reply mail envelopes designed to facilitate customer correspondence with the state agency. The envelope includes pre-printed elements such as the agency's address at 98 North Avenue, Suite 10, Skowhegan, ME 04976-9959, along with USPS Business Reply Mail indicia including First-Class Mail designation, Augusta, Maine permit number 8, and postage payment authorization. The specifications were produced using DAZzle Designer software (Version 9.0.05) on January 20, 2012, and include precise technical requirements for barcode placement and sizing.

The document emphasizes critical technical requirements for production compliance, specifically noting that the FIM (Facing Identification Mark) and POSTNET barcodes must not be enlarged, reduced, or moved from their specified positions and must be printed at actual size to meet United States Postal Service regulations and automation compatibility standards. These specifications ensure that the envelopes will function properly within USPS mail processing systems while maintaining the state agency's ability to receive and track returned mail from constituents. No pricing information, bid response dates, or contractual terms are contained within this specification document, as it serves primarily as a technical reference for envelope production and printing vendors.
