Strange request. My dd has taken a beautiful picture id like to give out to some people relatives. I don't want it as a glossy photo more a matt postcard? Is there a technical name for this?

A while ago I wanted some pics in matt and they weren't matt.
Even printed onto board would be good.

Printed onto board would be canvas. Matt pics are still going to be a tiny bit shiny

You could get it made into postcards or cards. I've used Photobox for that in the past, but loads of companies offer the service now.

Yes more of a post card I was thinking thanks.

Google moo cards.

So technically what you're looking for is to print on an uncoated paper.

The photos are typically printed on silk and gloss papers to enhance the colours as Matt/uncoated absorbs more ink so can dull the image.

Moo cards do postcards, lovely quality slightly higher end, and you can put as many images in the postcard as you want, so that's maybe a good option for you, they do all sorts of products, but maybe check your images are set as CMYK and not RGB if you have any software to help you.

Optimal Print do matte Christmas cards, there's probably a postcard option too if you look through their designs.

Freeprints do allsorts of printouts from photos to mugs and I think you can choose the size and finish. Starts at 40 odd free prints, you just pay postage at £3.99ish. if I remember correctly when I signed up for it I was awarded a free canvas and/or photo book again just postage to pay

Snapfish have this as an option. Usually pretty reasonably priced too.

I came on to suggest moo.
They are brilliant. Slightly more pricey. But very good
