How Much Does A Photo Weigh

How much does a shiny 4x6 ptogram weigh? 3

Ten of them weighed more than 30 grams.

I need to decide how many stamps I need.

It depends on the thickness of the paper on which the PTO is printed.

Even lighter paper may require more than one pad.

For reference, an 8 1/2 x 11 plain paper envelope and 5 sheets usually require only one stamp, but 6 sheets are too heavy.

A 4x6 print will weigh at least as much as an 8 1/2 x 11 inch sheet of paper.

If the power take off shaft is printed on a very thin power take off paper (or plain paper), you can send it by post.

It is best to weigh envelopes and points on the correct shipping scale.

A better question would be: Do many 4x6 ptograms weigh 30 grams? Each will weigh a fraction of an ounce, unless they are in a very heavy (and moist) box.

Yes, 10 weighs 1.5 ounces. I just weigh the smooth glossy paper on my can scale.

Just take it to the post and weigh it.

I think it could be about an ounce of craft ... maybe more.

Like wings.
