Business Card Maker

What goes on the card

The front carries your name and job title, your company and tagline, your phone, email, website and address, and your logo; the back carries your company. Drag any element on the front to move it, add your own text, or draw on either side; Reset positions puts everything back where it started. Each line is set in its own direction, so Arabic reads right to left and English left to right on the same card.

Design

Six templates — Modern, Classic, Minimal, Gradient, Dark and Creative — and eight colour presets, or set the accent, background and text colours yourself. Flip the card or show both sides at once to check them together.

Print and share

• Download PDF gives a two-page file, front and back, 3.5 × 2 inches (88.9 × 50.8 mm), drawn at 300 DPI.
• PNG Front, PNG Back and PNG Both give image files, for an email signature, a profile picture or a print shop that prefers images.
• Card sizes differ by country: 3.5 × 2 inches is the US size, while many printers in Europe and the Middle East cut 85 × 55 mm or 90 × 50 mm. Ask your printer to fit the file to their size, and keep your text and logo away from the edges, where trimming can cut into them.

Details worth getting right

• Give one phone number in full international form, such as +971 50 123 4567, so it works for a contact abroad and on a phone that saves it.
• Use an email address and a website on your own domain if you have one; they read as more established than a free mailbox.
• Upload your logo at a good size. The card is drawn at 300 DPI, and a small logo file prints blurred.
• If the card carries Arabic, have an Arabic speaker read it before you print: a name spelled two ways on two documents confuses clients and banks alike.
