Business Card Design Guidelines
First things first let’s choose a size for your design
Want print perfection? Use our checklist!
Text
Keep all text at 8pt or higher.
Lines
Sharp lines need to be at 0.5pt or thicker.
Imagery
Make artwork a vector PDF, photographs at 300dpi or higher and file size a maximum of 50Mb.
Cropmarks
No need! We automatically add them in exactly the right place.
