Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies and General Matters	(1) Significant Accounting Policies and General Matters

	Nature of Operations. Ennis, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are principally engaged in the production of and sale of business forms, other business products and apparel to customers primarily located in the United States.

	Basis of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s fiscal years ended on the following days: February 28, 2015, February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013 (fiscal years ended 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively).

	Accounts Receivable. Trade receivables are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment generally within 30 days from the invoice date. The Company’s allowance for doubtful receivables reserve is based on an analysis that estimates the amount of its total customer receivable balance that is not collectible. This analysis includes assessing a default probability to customers’ receivable balances, which is influenced by several factors including (i) current market conditions, (ii) periodic review of customer credit worthiness, and (iii) review of customer receivable aging and payment trends.

	Inventories. With the exception of approximately 10% of its print segment inventories, which are valued at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market, the Company values its inventories at the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market. At fiscal years ended 2015 and 2014, approximately 2.0% and 1.9% of inventories, respectively, are valued at LIFO with the remainder of inventories valued at FIFO. The Company regularly reviews inventories on hand, using specific aging categories, and writes down the carrying value of its inventories for excess and potentially obsolete inventories based on historical usage and estimated future usage. In assessing the ultimate realization of its inventories, the Company is required to make judgments as to future demand requirements. As actual future demand or market conditions may vary from those projected by the Company, adjustments to inventories may be required. The Company provides reserves for excess and obsolete inventory when necessary based upon analysis of quantities on hand, recent sales volumes and reference to market prices. Reserves for excess and obsolete inventory at fiscal years ended 2015 and 2014 were $3.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

	Property, Plant and Equipment. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over a period considered adequate to amortize the total cost over the useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 11 years for machinery and equipment and 10 to 33 years for buildings and improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvements. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the specific property unit. The Company capitalizes all leases that are in substance acquisitions of property.

	Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the value of net assets of businesses acquired and is not amortized. Intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, using a fair-value-based test that compares the fair value of the related business unit to its carrying value.

	Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is based upon future discounted net cash flows.



	Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity and/or variable rates associated with these instruments. Long-term debt as of fiscal years ended 2015 and 2014 approximates its fair value as the interest rate is tied to market rates.

	Treasury Stock. The Company accounts for repurchases of common stock using the cost method with common stock in treasury classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a reduction of shareholders’ equity.

	Deferred Finance Charges. Deferred finance charges in connection with the Company’s revolving credit facility are amortized to interest expense over the term of the facility using the straight-line method. If the facility is extinguished before the end of the term, the remaining balance of the deferred finance charges will be amortized fully in such year.

	Revenue Recognition. Revenue is generally recognized upon shipment of products. Net sales represent gross sales invoiced to customers, less certain related charges, including sales tax, discounts, returns and other allowances. Returns, discounts and other allowances have historically been insignificant. In some cases and upon customer request, the Company prints and stores custom print product for customer specified future delivery, generally within twelve months. In this case, risk of loss passes to the customer, the customer is invoiced under normal credit terms, and revenue is recognized when manufacturing is complete. Approximately $13.7 million, $13.7 million and $12.3 million of revenue was recognized under these arrangements during fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

	Advertising Expenses. The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Catalog and brochure preparation and printing costs, which are considered direct response advertising, are amortized to expense over the life of the catalog, which typically ranges from three to twelve months. Advertising expense was approximately $0.8 million, $1.0 million and $1.0 million during the fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Included in this advertising expense is amortization related to direct response advertising of approximately $215,000, $464,000, and $392,000 for the fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Unamortized direct advertising costs included in prepaid expenses at fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013 were approximately $368,000, $145,000, and $304,000, respectively.

	Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

	Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and then adding the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. This is calculated using the treasury stock method. No options were included for fiscal year 2015 due to the operating loss. At year-end 2014 and 2013, there were 172,543 and 297,250 options, respectively, not included in the diluted earnings per share computation because their effect was anti-dilutive.

	Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity resulting from transactions from non-owner sources. Other comprehensive income (loss) consisted of the following: adjustments resulting from the foreign currency translation of the Company’s Mexican and Canadian operations, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and changes in the funded status of the Company’s pension plan.



	Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposures to interest rate fluctuations on its floating rate debt agreements when the Company deems it prudent to do so. The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet, measures those instruments at fair value and recognizes changes in the fair value of derivatives in earnings in the period of change, unless the derivative qualifies as an effective hedge that offsets certain exposures. No derivatives were used by the Company in any of the periods presented.

	Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency for the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency. Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing during the year. The adjustments resulting from translating the financial statements of the foreign subsidiary are reflected in shareholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

	Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations in other expense, net as incurred. Transaction (gains) and losses totaled approximately ($667,000), $35,000, and $189,000 for fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

	Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

	Shipping and Handling Costs. The Company records amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs in net sales and related costs are included in cost of goods sold.

	Stock Based Compensation. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures (estimated at 1%) over the requisite service period of the individual grants, which generally equals the vesting period. The fair value of all share based awards is estimated on the date of grant.

Receivables [Abstract]
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Receivables	(2) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Receivables

	Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for an estimate of amounts that are uncollectible. Substantially all of the Company’s receivables are due from customers in North America. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon its evaluation of the following factors: (i) the customer’s financial condition, (ii) the amount of credit the customer requests, and (iii) the customer’s actual payment history (which includes disputed invoice resolution). The Company does not typically require its customers to post a deposit or supply collateral. The Company’s allowance for doubtful receivables is based on an analysis that estimates the amount of its total customer receivable balance that is not collectible. This analysis includes assessing a default probability to customers’ receivable balances, which is influenced by several factors including (i) current market conditions, (ii) periodic review of customer credit worthiness, and (iii) review of customer receivable aging and payment trends.

	The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance in the period the payment is received. Credit losses from continuing operations have consistently been within management’s expectations.



	The following table represents the activity in the Company’s allowance for doubtful receivables for the fiscal years ended (in thousands):

During both fiscal year 2015 and 2014, as inventory quantities were reduced, this resulted in a liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities carried at lower costs prevailing in prior years as compared with the cost of fiscal year 2014 and 2013. The effect decreased cost of sales by approximately $87,000 and $25,000 and increased net earnings by approximately $55,000 and $16,000 for fiscal years 2015 and 2014, respectively. Cost includes materials, labor and overhead related to the purchase and production of inventories.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets	(5) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

	Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets of acquired businesses and is not amortized. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis as of November 30 of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, using a fair-value-based test that compares the fair value of the asset to its carrying value. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment at a reporting unit level, which the Company has determined is at the Print Segment and Apparel Segment level. The impairment test for goodwill uses a two-step approach. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which goodwill is assigned to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds its estimated value, a potential impairment is indicated and step two is performed. Step two compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill to its implied fair value. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities, including unrecognized intangible assets of that reporting unit based on their fair values, similar to the allocation that occurs in a business combination. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If the implied fair value of goodwill exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired. During the initial preparation of the annual first step impairment analysis, there were indicators that an impairment may exist with respect to the Company’s Apparel Segment. Therefore, the execution of the formal impairment analysis with respect to the Company’s Apparel Segment was accelerated. During the preparation of the impairment analysis on the Apparel Segment it was determined that an estimated impairment charge of $93.3 million ($55.9 million goodwill and $37.4 million trademarks) was required to the Apparel Segment’s recorded goodwill and trademarks, or approximately 88% of their carrying value prior to such impairment charge, to reduce the carrying values of those assets to their estimated fair values. Upon completion of the impairment analysis during the fourth quarter it was determined that it was not necessary to record any further impairment expense to the initial estimate. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, we recorded an impairment charge of $24.2 million ($18.6 million to goodwill and $5.6 million to trademarks). The impairment charges were primarily driven by the depressed market environment and the resulting impact on the Apparel Segment’s expected future cash flows. The Company also determined there was no impairment in the Print Segment. The Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets in assessing the recoverability of its goodwill and other intangibles. If these estimates or the related assumptions change, the Company may be required to record additional impairment charges relating to these assets in the future.

	The cost of intangible assets is based on fair values at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life (between 1 and 15 years). Trademarks and trade names with indefinite lives are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. The Company assesses the recoverability of its definite-lived intangible assets primarily based on its current and anticipated future undiscounted cash flows.



	The carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s intangible assets at each balance sheet date are as follows (in thousands):

Compensation and Retirement Disclosure [Abstract]
Pension Plan	(10) Pension Plan

	The Company and certain subsidiaries have a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan (the “Pension Plan”), covering approximately 8% of aggregate employees. Benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s average compensation for the highest five compensation years preceding retirement or termination. The Company’s funding policy is to contribute annually an amount in accordance with the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).

	The Company’s pension plan asset allocation, by asset category, is as follows for the fiscal years ended:



			2015				2014
	Equity securities			55	%			56	%
	Debt securities			37	%			37	%
	Cash and cash equivalents			8	%			7	%

	Total			100	%			100	%


	The current asset allocation is being managed to meet the Company’s stated objective of asset growth and capital preservation. The factor is based upon the combined judgments of the Company’s Administrative Committee and its investment advisors to meet the Company’s investment needs, objectives, and risk tolerance. The Company’s target asset allocation percentage, by asset class, for the year ended February 28, 2015 is as follows:



	Asset Class		Target
			Allocation
			Percentage
	Cash		1 - 5%
	Fixed Income		35 - 55%
	Equity		45 - 60%

	The Company estimates the long-term rate of return on plan assets will be 8.0% based upon target asset allocation. Expected returns are developed based upon the information obtained from the Company’s investment advisors. The advisors provide ten-year historical and five-year expected returns on the fund in the target asset allocation. The return information is weighted based upon the asset allocation at the end of the fiscal year. The expected rate of return at the beginning of the fiscal year ended 2015 was 8.0%, the rate used in the calculation of the current year pension expense.

	Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. The Company categorizes each of its fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:


		Level 1 -	Inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.


		Level 2 -	Inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves.


		Level 3 -	Inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

	The following tables present the Plan’s fair value hierarchy for those assets measured at fair value as of February 28, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands):

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about the financial asset, including estimates of timing, amount of expected future cash flows, and the credit standing of the issuer. In some cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets. The disclosed fair value may not be realized in the immediate settlement of the financial asset. In addition, the disclosed fair values do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time an entire holding of a particular financial asset. Potential taxes and other expenses that would be incurred in an actual sale or settlement are not reflected in amounts disclosed.

Effective February 1, 1994, the Company adopted a Defined Contribution 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) for its United States employees. The 401(k) Plan covers substantially all full-time employees who have completed sixty days of service and attained the age of eighteen. United States employees can contribute up to 100 percent of their annual compensation, but are limited to the maximum annual dollar amount allowable under the Internal Revenue Code. The 401(k) Plan provides for employer matching contributions or discretionary employer contributions for certain employees not enrolled in the Pension Plan for employees of the Company. Eligibility for employer contributions, matching percentage, and limitations depends on the participant’s employment location and whether the employees are covered by the Company’s pension plan, etc. The Company’s matching contributions are immediately vested. The Company made matching 401(k) contributions in the amount of $1.2 million, $0.9 million and $0.8 million in fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

In addition, the Northstar Computer Forms, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan was merged into the 401(k) Plan on February 1, 2001. The Company declared profit sharing contributions on behalf of the former employees of Northstar Computer Forms, Inc. in accordance with its original plan in the amounts of $227,000, $254,000, and $258,000, in fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

	The Company’s effective tax rate on earnings from operations for the year ended February 28, 2015, was (13.8)%, as compared with a 58.5% and 36.0% in 2014 and 2013, respectively. The following summary reconciles the statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate for the fiscal years ended:

	Included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets is approximately $2.3 million of refund receivable related to amended Canadian tax returns for fiscal years 2006-2008.

	Deferred taxes are recorded to give recognition to temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. The tax effects of these temporary differences are recorded as deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax assets generally represent items that can be used as a tax deduction or credit in future years. Deferred tax liabilities generally represent items that have been deducted for tax purposes, but have not yet been recorded in the consolidated statements of earnings. To the extent there are deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized, a valuation allowance would not be recorded. The components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities are summarized as follows (in thousands) for fiscal years ended:



			2015				2014
	Current deferred tax assets related to:
	Allowance for doubtful receivables		$	1,356			$	1,395

Included in other non-current deferred tax (liabilities) assets are currency exchange, stock options exercised, and the valuation allowance. As of the fiscal year ended 2015, the Company has federal net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $323,000 expiring in fiscal years 2023 through 2025. Based on historical earnings and expected sufficient future taxable income, management believes it will be able to fully utilize the net operating loss carry forwards.

Accounting standards require a two-step approach to determine how to recognize tax benefits in the financial statements where recognition and measurement of a tax benefit must be evaluated separately. A tax benefit will be recognized only if it meets a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold. For tax positions that meet this threshold, the tax benefit recognized is based on the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority.

At fiscal year-end 2015 and 2014, unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, including accrued interest and penalties of $329,481 and $246,000, respectively, are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and would impact the effective rate if recognized. For fiscal year 2015, the unrecognized tax benefit includes an aggregate of $17,000 of interest expense. Approximately $17,000 of unrecognized tax benefits relate to items that are affected by expiring statutes of limitations within the next 12 months. A reconciliation of the change in the unrecognized tax benefits for fiscal years ended 2015 and 2014 is as follows (in thousands):



		2015				2014
Balance at beginning of year		$	246			$	96
Additions (reductions) based on tax positions related to the current year			166				182
Reductions due to lapses of statutes of limitations			(82	)			(32	)

Balance at end of year		$	330			$	246


The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions and foreign tax jurisdictions. The Company has concluded all U.S. Federal income tax matters for years through 2009. All material state and local income tax matters have been concluded for years through 2009 and foreign tax jurisdictions through 2009.



The Company recognizes interest expense on underpayments of income taxes and accrued penalties related to unrecognized non-current tax benefits as part of the income tax provision. Other than amounts included in the unrecognized tax benefits, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalties for the fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings (loss) per Share	(12) Earnings (loss) per Share

	Basic earnings (loss) per share have been computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common stock. The following table sets forth the computation for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the fiscal years ended:



		2015			2014		2013
	Basic weighted average common shares outstanding		25,864,352			26,125,348		26,035,571

	Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		25,864,352			26,146,325		26,053,452


	Per share amounts:
	Net earnings (loss) – basic	$	(1.72	)	$	0.5	$	0.95

	Net earnings (loss) – diluted	$	(1.72	)	$	0.5	$	0.95

	Cash dividends	$	0.7		$	0.53	$	0.88


	The Company treats unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities, which are included in the computation of earnings (loss) per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company’s participating securities are comprised of unvested restricted stock.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information and Geographic Information	(13) Segment Information and Geographic Information

	The Company operates in two segments – the Print Segment and the Apparel Segment.

	The Print Segment, which represented 66% of the Company’s consolidated net sales for fiscal year 2015, is in the business of manufacturing, designing, and selling business forms and other printed business products primarily to distributors located in the United States. The Print Segment operates 58 manufacturing plants throughout the United States in 22 strategically located states. Approximately 96% of the business products manufactured by the Print Segment are custom and semi-custom products, constructed in a wide variety of sizes, colors, number of parts and quantities on an individual job basis depending upon the customers’ specifications.

	The products sold include snap sets, continuous forms, laser cut sheets, tags, labels, envelopes, integrated products, jumbo rolls and pressure sensitive products in short, medium and long runs under the following labels: Ennis®, Royal Business Forms®, Block Graphics®, Specialized Printed Forms®, 360º Custom LabelsSM, ColorWorx®, Enfusion®, Uncompromised Check Solutions®, VersaSeal®, Witt Printing®, B&D Litho®, Genforms®, PrintGraphicsSM, Calibrated Forms®, PrintXcel™, Printegra®, Curtis Business FormsSM, Falcon Business FormsSM, Forms ManufacturersSM, Mutual GraphicsSM and TRI-C Business FormsSM. The Print Segment also sells the Adams-McClure® brand (which provides Point of Purchase advertising for large franchise and fast food chains as well as kitting and fulfillment); the Admore® and Folder Express® brands (which provide presentation folders and document folders); Ennis Tag & LabelSM (which provides tags and labels, promotional products and advertising concept products); Atlas Tag & Label®, Kay Toledo TagSM, Special Service PartnersSM (SSP) (which provides tags and labels); Trade Envelopes® and Block Graphics®, Wisco® and National Imprint Corporation® (which provide custom and imprinted envelopes) and Northstar® and General Financial Supply® (which provide financial and security documents).

	The Print Segment sells predominantly through private printers and independent distributors. Northstar also sells direct to a small number of customers. Northstar has continued its focus with large banking organizations on a direct basis (where a distributor is not acceptable or available to the end-user) and has acquired several of the top 25 banks in the United States as customers and is actively working on other large banks within the top 25 tier of banks in the United States. Adams-McClure sales are generally provided through advertising agencies. Assets in this segment increased in 2015 primarily as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Sovereign Business Forms and Kay Toledo.

	The Apparel Segment, which accounted for 34% of the Company’s fiscal year 2015 consolidated net sales, consists of Alstyle Apparel. This group is primarily engaged in the production and sale of activewear including t-shirts, fleece goods, and other wearables. Alstyle sales are seasonal, with sales in the first and second quarters generally being the highest. Substantially all of the Apparel Segment sales are to customers in the United States.

	Corporate information is included to reconcile segment data to the consolidated financial statements and includes assets and expenses related to the Company’s corporate headquarters and other administrative costs.

	Segment data for the fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in thousands):

	For the third quarter ended November 30, 2014, a non-cash impairment charge of $93.3 million ($55.9 million to goodwill and $37.4 million to trademarks) related to the apparel segment was recorded. In each quarter for fiscal year ended February 28, 2015, the Company’s net sales increased in comparison to each of the quarters of the previous fiscal year. The primary reason for the increase was the Company’s Print Segment acquisitions of the Custom Envelope Division, Folder Express, Sovereign and Kay Toledo.


	-1	During the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, no dividend payment was made because of the Board’s decision to accelerate the normal first quarter payment for fiscal year 2014 into fiscal year 2013.

Concentrations of Risk	Feb. 28, 2015
Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]
Concentrations of Risk	(17) Concentrations of Risk
	Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and trade receivables. Cash is placed with high-credit quality financial institutions. The Company believes its credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited due to industry and geographic diversification. As disclosed on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful receivables to cover the Company’s estimate of credit losses associated with accounts receivable.
	The Company, for quality and pricing reasons, purchases its paper, cotton and yarn products from a limited number of suppliers. To maintain its high standard of color control associated with its apparel products, the Company purchases its dyeing chemicals from limited sources. While other sources may be available to the Company to purchase these products, they may not be available at the cost or at the quality the Company has come to expect.
	For the purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers cash to include cash on hand and in bank accounts. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts up to $250,000. At February 28, 2015, cash balances included $12.3 million that was not federally insured because it represented amounts in individual accounts above the federally insured limit for each such account. This at-risk amount is subject to fluctuation on a daily basis. While management does not believe there is significant risk with respect to such deposits, we cannot be assured that we will not experience losses on our deposits. At February 28, 2015, the Company had $0.8 million in Canadian and $1.1 million in Mexican bank accounts.

Significant_Accounting_Policie1

Significant Accounting Policies and General Matters (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Feb. 28, 2015
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Nature of Operations	Nature of Operations. Ennis, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are principally engaged in the production of and sale of business forms, other business products and apparel to customers primarily located in the United States.
Basis of Consolidation	Basis of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s fiscal years ended on the following days: February 28, 2015, February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013 (fiscal years ended 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively).
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable. Trade receivables are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment generally within 30 days from the invoice date. The Company’s allowance for doubtful receivables reserve is based on an analysis that estimates the amount of its total customer receivable balance that is not collectible. This analysis includes assessing a default probability to customers’ receivable balances, which is influenced by several factors including (i) current market conditions, (ii) periodic review of customer credit worthiness, and (iii) review of customer receivable aging and payment trends.
Inventories	Inventories. With the exception of approximately 10% of its print segment inventories, which are valued at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market, the Company values its inventories at the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market. At fiscal years ended 2015 and 2014, approximately 2.0% and 1.9% of inventories, respectively, are valued at LIFO with the remainder of inventories valued at FIFO. The Company regularly reviews inventories on hand, using specific aging categories, and writes down the carrying value of its inventories for excess and potentially obsolete inventories based on historical usage and estimated future usage. In assessing the ultimate realization of its inventories, the Company is required to make judgments as to future demand requirements. As actual future demand or market conditions may vary from those projected by the Company, adjustments to inventories may be required. The Company provides reserves for excess and obsolete inventory when necessary based upon analysis of quantities on hand, recent sales volumes and reference to market prices. Reserves for excess and obsolete inventory at fiscal years ended 2015 and 2014 were $3.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively.
Property, Plant and Equipment	Property, Plant and Equipment. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over a period considered adequate to amortize the total cost over the useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 11 years for machinery and equipment and 10 to 33 years for buildings and improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvements. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the specific property unit. The Company capitalizes all leases that are in substance acquisitions of property.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets	Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the value of net assets of businesses acquired and is not amortized. Intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, using a fair-value-based test that compares the fair value of the related business unit to its carrying value.
Long-Lived Assets	Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is based upon future discounted net cash flows.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity and/or variable rates associated with these instruments. Long-term debt as of fiscal years ended 2015 and 2014 approximates its fair value as the interest rate is tied to market rates.
Treasury Stock	Treasury Stock. The Company accounts for repurchases of common stock using the cost method with common stock in treasury classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a reduction of shareholders’ equity.
Deferred Finance Charges	Deferred Finance Charges. Deferred finance charges in connection with the Company’s revolving credit facility are amortized to interest expense over the term of the facility using the straight-line method. If the facility is extinguished before the end of the term, the remaining balance of the deferred finance charges will be amortized fully in such year.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition. Revenue is generally recognized upon shipment of products. Net sales represent gross sales invoiced to customers, less certain related charges, including sales tax, discounts, returns and other allowances. Returns, discounts and other allowances have historically been insignificant. In some cases and upon customer request, the Company prints and stores custom print product for customer specified future delivery, generally within twelve months. In this case, risk of loss passes to the customer, the customer is invoiced under normal credit terms, and revenue is recognized when manufacturing is complete. Approximately $13.7 million, $13.7 million and $12.3 million of revenue was recognized under these arrangements during fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Advertising Expenses	Advertising Expenses. The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Catalog and brochure preparation and printing costs, which are considered direct response advertising, are amortized to expense over the life of the catalog, which typically ranges from three to twelve months. Advertising expense was approximately $0.8 million, $1.0 million and $1.0 million during the fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Included in this advertising expense is amortization related to direct response advertising of approximately $215,000, $464,000, and $392,000 for the fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Unamortized direct advertising costs included in prepaid expenses at fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013 were approximately $368,000, $145,000, and $304,000, respectively.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and then adding the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. This is calculated using the treasury stock method. No options were included for fiscal year 2015 due to the operating loss. At year-end 2014 and 2013, there were 172,543 and 297,250 options, respectively, not included in the diluted earnings per share computation because their effect was anti-dilutive.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)	Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity resulting from transactions from non-owner sources. Other comprehensive income (loss) consisted of the following: adjustments resulting from the foreign currency translation of the Company’s Mexican and Canadian operations, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and changes in the funded status of the Company’s pension plan.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities	Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposures to interest rate fluctuations on its floating rate debt agreements when the Company deems it prudent to do so. The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet, measures those instruments at fair value and recognizes changes in the fair value of derivatives in earnings in the period of change, unless the derivative qualifies as an effective hedge that offsets certain exposures. No derivatives were used by the Company in any of the periods presented.
Foreign Currency Translation	Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency for the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency. Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing during the year. The adjustments resulting from translating the financial statements of the foreign subsidiary are reflected in shareholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

	Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations in other expense, net as incurred. Transaction (gains) and losses totaled approximately ($667,000), $35,000, and $189,000 for fiscal years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Estimates	Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Shipping and Handling Costs	Shipping and Handling Costs. The Company records amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs in net sales and related costs are included in cost of goods sold.
Stock Based Compensation	Stock Based Compensation. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures (estimated at 1%) over the requisite service period of the individual grants, which generally equals the vesting period. The fair value of all share based awards is estimated on the date of grant.
