Business Card Maker

How to use

1. 4 designs × 4 band styles. Mix them freely; changing one keeps the other, your text and images. Choose a template, then click text to edit it. Click the photo or logo to replace it. Text and photos belong to this person. Layout and type styles apply to everyone. The template places each field automatically. Changing the template restores its type styles; your content stays. Size and photo choices reflow the layout. You can adjust the selected text’s font, size, alignment and color. Use Undo to return to the previous design. No photo uploaded. Choose your photo; the placeholder is not printed. Choose the finished card size. For a holder, measure its insert; paper size is chosen separately for printing.
2. Choose A4 or Letter, copies per person, minimum paper margin and card spacing. Include backs only when you need them. Prepare print sheets, check each page, then use Print / Save PDF. Your browser provides the PDF destination. Changing a card, its order, photo or print settings removes the previous sheets so an old version cannot be exported by mistake.

For one business-card design, use Repeat one design and set eight copies to fill the default A4 sheet. Only the selected person is printed; other rows remain in the editor. For a team, choose Different people and set one copy per person. Add rows manually or import a list. The logo and visual style are shared, while every person keeps their own contact details and back message. Choose Studio, Editorial, Modern or Natural to change the layout. Bands and lines are switched separately and stay as chosen when you change templates. Common size presets include 85 × 55, 88.9 × 50.8 and 91 × 55 mm; check the dimensions you need instead of assuming one regional standard.

Another example: nine copies on Letter, with backs enabled, produce four printed sides: eight fronts, eight matching backs, one front and its matching back. Empty slots remain blank; do not centre that last back card manually.

Before you print

Cards are measured in millimetres. The grid is centred on the page and uses complete cards only. For example, an 85 × 55 mm card on A4 with a 10 mm minimum margin and a 4 mm gap fits two columns and four rows: eight cards per side. Increasing the minimum margin can reduce that count. A partially filled last page keeps its empty positions.

Back pages follow their matching front pages. Long-edge binding mirrors the columns across the sheet; short-edge binding mirrors the rows. Card content remains upright on the back page. Select the same binding option in the printer dialog. Printers differ in feed direction and registration accuracy, so test one sheet with distinct names before printing a batch. The app cannot adjust a printer’s mechanical offset.

The dashed line is a 4 mm safe area. It is not printed. One card face per PDF page, front then back for each person. Includes your chosen bleed and an exact trim box. Copies are ordered with the printer. 300 ppi raster artwork, RGB. Ask your printer for its finished size and bleed. This is not a CMYK or PDF/X file; printers requiring those need a prepress conversion. Bleed on each edge (mm): 0–5 mm.

Use actual size or 100% in the print dialog. Disable headers, footers and extra margins, and match the selected paper. “Fit to page” may shrink the cards. Measure one printed card with a ruler. PDF export preserves the intended page dimensions when the browser honors the page settings, but downstream viewers and print drivers can still apply scaling.
