When a letter contains enclosures, type one of the following abbreviations...
Enc.
Encl.
Encs.
...flush with the left margin, one or two spaces under the combination of initials identifying first the writer of the letter, then the typist. Here's an example:
JRS/rh
Enc.
If there's more than one enclosure, indicate the number, like this:
Encs. 2
If the enclosures are especially important, identify them, like this:
Enc. Certified check $2,350
Mortgage -- Smith to Jones
If an enclosure is to be returned, make a note to that effect, like this:
Enc. Assignment (to be returned)
This and many other helpful topics are covered in the Legal Secretary's Complete Handbook, Fourth Edition, by Mary A. DeVries.
