Edier Quintana (asker) Apr 9, 2021: ¡Cómo no, con mucho gusto! paquetes de material impreso encuadernado
O G V Apr 8, 2021: nos dices cómo quedó?
Edier Quintana (asker) Apr 6, 2021: Thank you so much, Althea.
Althea Draper Apr 6, 2021: According to the first reference, 'bound and packet mail' is also referred to as 'bound printed matter and standard flats'. The second reference tells you what standard flats (packet mail) are, and the third explains what bound printed matter (bound) is. Hope this helps a bit. The translation will possibly depend on which Spanish speaking country you are translating this for. https://financialpost.com/pmn/press-releases-pmn/business-wi... https://www.clearprint.com/articles/uncategorized/standard-m... https://faq.usps.com/s/article/What-is-Bound-Printed-Matter-...
