VANCOUVER, British Columbia - eTradeWire -- Letterhome, an online service that prints and mails letters and postcards, now serves customers in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, and ships to many other countries. Customers in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand see prices in their own currency.

The process takes a few minutes. A customer uploads a PDF or Word file, or types a message, enters the recipient's address and pays online. Letterhome prints the document, adds postage and puts it in the mail. There is no printer to find, no stamps to buy and no trip to the post office.

Prices start at $6 CAD, and the price at checkout shows the total, including the first pages, the envelope and postage. Postcards are offered as well.

"Some mail still has to be on paper," said Jeffrey George, founder of Letterhome. "A signed form, a notice to a landlord, or a birthday card for a grandparent can't always be an email. We built Letterhome so sending a real letter takes a few minutes, wherever you are."

Every order is reviewed by a person before it is sent to print. Letterhome also publishes free guides, in English, French and Spanish, on addressing mail, postal rules, and where to send common documents.

Customers use Letterhome for personal letters and cards, and for paperwork such as immigration documents, notices to tenants and landlords, and forms for government offices.
