PRINT HELP

Choose a flat, folded or display card

A card’s structure changes how it is written on, displayed and assembled. Start with the setting—handheld note, table place card or standing display—then choose a matching resource.

Flat cards keep the whole face visible

A flat place card can sit in a holder or be attached to another surface. It is simple to cut, but does not stand by itself. Check the actual cut dimensions against the holder and keep the most important name readable from the intended distance.

Folded cards create their own support

A tent-style place card uses a fold to stand. The fold line is not a cut line. Write or personalize the face in the intended orientation before folding, and test the balance with the paper you intend to use.

Greeting cards need an inside and outside

Inspect the full packet for the exterior, fold guide and blank message area. Single-sided printing with a blank reverse can create a simple inside when folded. Do not assume a matching envelope is included unless it appears in the file list.

Display constructions add joining steps

Gatefold, Z-fold, bridge and easel designs have different moving or supporting parts. Read the specific sequence and dry-fit pieces before adhesive. A name such as “bridge” must correspond to an actual bridging strip or structure, not just a decorative motif.

Plan a coordinated set without duplicate work

Select related designs that fit the same occasion, but keep paper and component requirements clear. Make one completed trial before preparing the whole table. Color/style choices are variants, not a reason to download the same task repeatedly.
