How can I create and print custom business cards?
With the convenient business card printing process, any organization or entrepreneur can create unique and impressive business cards quickly. Customers who have already designed business cards can even upload their designs as PDF or image files.
Those hoping to design business cards from scratch can utilize Canva to create custom business cards with an array of attractive templates. With a wide selection of fonts, shapes, and paper types to choose from, custom printed business cards convey both professionalism and personality.
What size are business cards?
A standard business card measures 3.5 inches by 2 inches. For customers uploading images to create custom business cards, an image resolution of at least 1050 pixels by 600 pixels is advisable for optimal printing quality.
What kind of paper is best for business cards?
When choosing which paper to use for custom business cards, shoppers should consider thickness (such as 14-, 16-, or 18-pt. paper) and finish (such as a pearl, gloss, matte, or uncoated). While various professionals may favor different materials, there’s a perfect combination for any profession.
What is a good thickness for business cards?
Standard business cards are typically printed on 14-, 16-, or 18-pt. paper (“pt.” refers to “point,” or one-thousandth of an inch). However, some professionals choose significantly thicker options, such as 32- or 34-pt. business cards, to make an especially memorable, upscale impression.
What size font should I use for business cards?
Professionals normally use several font sizes on their business cards, choosing a larger text for the most important elements (for example, one’s name or company). Font size also depends on the particular font in question: At size 18, for example, some fonts will seem massive, while others will appear rather small.
What are some of the best fonts for business cards?
Thanks to a partnership with design platform Canva, customers can choose from dozens of appealing fonts — or combine more than one for a personalized business card design. For example, corporate professionals may opt for more traditional selections, whereas creatives may prefer more expressive styles.
What should I include on a business card?
Business cards usually include several basic personal details, such as name, company, and particular position. Additionally, business cards should provide various kinds of contact information, such as a professional phone number, email, website, and business address. Some professionals may include additional information, such as the URL for their profile on a professional networking site.
