Printing multiple cards per page

Business cards are 3.5 × 2 inches. A standard sheet fits up to 10 cards:

  • A4 (210 × 297 mm) — 10 cards fit with 2 columns × 5 rows
  • US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) — 10 cards fit with 2 columns × 5 rows
  • 4-up or 8-up — fewer cards, more spacing between them for easier cutting

Choose a layout above. The preview shows exactly what will print. Cards are separated by a small gap so you can cut with a paper trimmer or scissors.

Recommended paper

  • 350 gsm cardstock — standard business card weight
  • 300 gsm — lighter, easier to feed through home printers
  • Matte finish — feels premium, no fingerprints
  • Gloss finish — more vibrant colors, shows smudges more

For professional results, print at a local shop or online service. For personal use, home printing on cardstock works well.

Cutting tips

  • Use a paper trimmer, not scissors — cleaner edges
  • Cut along the gap between cards, not through the card design
  • Test one page first, then batch the rest
  • For rounded corners, use a corner punch after cutting

What makes a business card work

  • High contrast — light on dark, or dark on light
  • One accent color
  • Five to seven elements maximum
  • Name largest, everything else smaller
  • Print-safe margins — nothing important within 0.15 in of the edge
