Shortcut URLs (aka vanity URLs) are shortened versions of URLs, which makes them better suited to print pieces such as catalogs and postcards, where space is tight. Because they are shorter, they're easier to remember, making them ideally suited for marketing and other promotional purposes.

Either full (aka absolute) or shortcut URLs can be used in electronic pieces (e.g., enewsletters or email campaigns), depending on design preference and/or space limitations.

This page lists all approved shortcut URLs. However, be sure to test the shortcut URL before finalizing a print job.
