Xara :: How To Create A Sheet Of Business Cards
Jun 27, 2011
The powerful new XD7 LIVE COPY and EDITING INSIDE GROUPS features are really useful if you need to create a sheet of business cards. Create your business card and then set it as a LIVE COPY and repeat it on page. Now if you need to make a change later to the business card all the other copies of the business card change automatically.
Attached is a sample (.xar) to play around with.
If you're not familiar with LIVE COPY or EDITING INSIDE GROUPS in XD7, I recommend you watch Xhris's excellent videos at [URL]....

Long-term user of CorelDraw, and have just found Xara P&GD, which is quite a revelation. I've re-designed my business card and how to print to A4, pre-perforated card. CorelDraw can make use of Avery templates for printing the single business card design, multiple times, on the same sheet of card, but I can't find a way to do this with Xara without physically copying the design to make a composite A4 layout. Can Xara do this the "template" way?

I am designing my Business Card in PS. Now my business card has a back and front...In illustrator I would create two Artboards. What would I do in Photoshop? Do I extend the canvas to double the size? Or do I create a seperate file for the backside?
What is the correct way from a printing perspective?

I am preparing some business cards and wish to include a couple of email address as text not as blue, underlined links. They keep showing up as links and I can't seem to find a way of making them just text. I'm rather new at this

In page setup i have setup my page to print 4 business cards on an A4 page. I have customize the labels myself. Then in print preview i have chosen to print the business cards in the center of the page. But the cards are on the bottom left corner and what ever i do it will not change.
maybe i have to change the margins in page setup-customize label? But don't know the inches.
How can i put my 4 business cards in the center of the page to print?

My printer (digital printer) tells me that they dont recommend having any borders on their cards as during the printing /cutting process the edges may be trimmed 1mm in a random manner and thus offsetting a nice even border.
Is there anyway to combat this or do I need to go to a specific type of printer?
Or do I just setup the file and hope the random edge cut/print/positioning goes my way?
Id love to get a small white 1mm/2mm edge on the left and top of my card if possible, bottom doesnt matter as its allready white and right edge there doesnt need to be one.

I just started using GIMP to try to design a business card that is of acceptable quality for printing. The company that's going to do the printing says they need to be 300 dpi or better. I know nothing about this. What filetype would be best for that purpose and what software I need to create a design quickly and easily?

OS WinXP and Win Vista 64 bit.
To print business cards, I selected Label AVERY 5371 - 2X 3.5 BusCr. Print preview looks good. There is no any visible alignment problems.
When printing is completed (Linen paper AVERY 5371), there is about 2 millimeters alignment problem for each card. I created my own template and the print is with the same results. The printer I use is Canon MP830 ink jet.

I have CorelDraw Graphics Suite X6. I have created what I want in the end to be a double sided business card. However, when printing I am unable to get what will be the back design to align with the front design. Does Coreldraw have a option of sort to make this happen automatically? Or is there a technique to make this happen?

I am trying to make business cards in Adobe Illustrator using the Pantone Color System. In my logo, the middle circle is a dark grey: C20 Y20 M20 K80. I can't find a suitable Pantone grey that is this dark. Pantone 425U is too light. Also, which Pantone Black is the darkest?

I am making new business cards using CorelDraw. When I save the business card to a PDF file and download it to Vistaprint, the text does not look sharp as it does in CorelDraw. Is there a way to download without being blurry?

I am having difficulty creating the attached 3D business models in vector and struggling with the perspective and angles, both are proving challenging. I initially started by creating a cross hatch grid and rotating it 45 degrees but its not looking right.

I'm creating cards for different decks. What the printer gets and what I get are two totally different things. This card (.xar file attached), has been designed with the diamond fill. I got poor results when I exported the .xar file itself to PDF format.
So I exported the .xar file as a 300dpi png, and next exported the PNG file to PDF, using Xara DP6 program. Turned out exactly as I want it. File attached.
So, I send the PNG file to the printer. He exports it to Adobe Illustrator, and it comes back with rectangles instead of the subtle starburst effect. I have four card designs that use this diamond effect, and they all do the same thing. His PDF file is too large to attach here because there are 11 card samples on it and it's 860kb. So I'm attaching a screenshot of how the red card turned out when he exported the PNG file to PDF. I'm also attaching a screenshot of the blue card, where you see the rectangles are quite prominently displayed.
(Blue card image being so large; I was working with Photoshop Elements and must have forgotten to resize.)
I could export the cards to PDF and send them instead of PNGs. Looking for taking a PDF export from Xara and using it in an Adobe Illustrator template?

I like to make and print custom cards for family and friends. I use a heavy matte finish paper to print on. But the printing is never as vibrant as my screen image, and this includes photos.
Today I tried this and it worked fine. I converted the image to be printed to a 300dpi bitmap, then using the Photo Tool > Enhance menu, I increased the Saturation to the point where the image looked psychedelic. When I printed on the dull finish card stock, the colors looked just right.

I've got 32 PSD files of a customers paintings that we use to make greeting cards. She just turned 100 last week and her daughter in law came in to pick some up and asked if we could make a sheet with small versions of the paintings on them with the file names so that she can remember them. She thought we only had 5. I told her we have more like 30. So the old lady doesn't know what we do and don't have here.
Since they are Photoshop files, I can't just toss em into iPhoto to create a contact sheet. I guess I could do a batch convert to JPG on all of them and then drop those into iPhoto but is there a way to do this within Photoshop? just open up all 32 PSD files and create some sort of a contact sheet with file names under each image? Maybe 6 to a page?
