Directions for making your own basic business cards
You don't have to
register, log in, or pay us to use PrintFree site. No strings or hidden
conditions are attached to this offer. Here, you can play with your text,
appearance, and content. Best of all you
can make them right now and start giving them away right away.
Just add your text
and print away. These are very conservative on ink usage to keep printing
costs down. You get forms to make variations of cards using two basic types
of paper:
- First is the perforated 2" X 3Ѕ" style commonly found in office supply stores. These sheets have a half inch border on the top and bottom, and a three quarter inch border on each side, 10 per sheet. Due to inherent borders added by your web browser, these will be centered slightly different from card to card. The perforations and high quality paper do make it easy to make very professional cards.
- Second, you can format with lines for regular, non-perforated paper.
These will be just a hair smaller in height than the other cards, and the
lines will be guides, since you will have to cut out the cards yourself. With
care these can have a very professional look as well. Use a good quality
heavyweight card or photo style paper for best results. Set your printer
settings to high quality.
You will only be printing text here, so ink usage is minimal.
Chose the one of two forms, which you are going to use and
select from 5 available color templates:
·
Black. All the print on this card
is black.
·
Red. The title on this card is red.
All the other print on this card is black.
·
Blue. The title on this card is Blue. All
the other print on this card is black.
·
Green. The title on this card is Green. All
the other print on this card is black.
·
Mixed. These are full colored cards in
five different colors.
I chose the Mixed color scheme with Lines to create a
sample. After entering the data, you can almost instantly generate 10 cards
conveniently placed and ready for printing.
The drawback of the service is low customization ability and
no option to add images and graphic. But, if you need to create them fast, on
the go, and for free, that might be an acceptable solution.
