To enclose something is to surround it or cover it up. An envelope encloses a letter. To enclose is to put something inside something else.
Attachments are frequently referred to alphabetically, e.g., “Attachment A”. If you do choose the alphabet, be sure to include the reference on the actual attachment in the header. An enclosure stands alone even though they are included in the letter but not necessarily referred to in the letter.
If something is enclosed with a letter, the notation “Enclosure” is typed a double-space below the writer's initials and/or typist's initials. If more than one item is enclosed, the word is made plural and followed by the number of items (e.g., “Enclosures 2”).
The enclosure in a letter actually plays an important role: It reminds the recipients that additional items were included with the letter (and what those items were, if you include that level of detail).
Under your name at the end of the letter, skip two lines. On the third line, write "Enclosure:" or "Enclosures:" if there are multiple documents. Skip a line after "Enclosures:" and then begin your list of enclosures. Put each enclosed document title on its own line.
