Address carrier
The address carrier is the document that carries the address of the
person for who the mail-set is meant. The address carrier can consist
of one or more sheets, from which at least the first sheet must contain
the address. The address must remain visible while enclosures are
added and the document-set is folded. The fold type and selected
envelope must ensure that the address is visible behind the window in
the envelope. For personalized mailings there is always an address
carrier present as long as envelope printing is not supported. Normally
there is one address carrier.
Address position
Position of the address on the address carrier,
measured from the upper left corner. The address
position consists of a horizontal x coordinate, a

Document
A document is one of the components of a mail-set. A document can
consist of one or more sheets. Documents can be divided into address
carriers and enclosures. For personalized mailings there is always one
address carrier and an optional number of enclosures.
Document-set
The document-set is the physical collection of address carrier and
enclosure(s) that is under production in the Inserting System. The
document-set is completed during production and is to be inserted in
the envelope. The number of enclosures can range from 0 to the limit
opposed by the number of available Feeders. Once the document set
has been inserted into an envelope it is called mail set.
