5 Tips to Create the Perfect Business Card - How To Design Professional Business Cards
Hi! I'm Antonio Centeno. I'm the founder of Real Men Real Style. Today, I'm going to be
talking about the perfect business card. I'm going to give you five tips on how to create 5 Tips to Create the Perfect Business Card | How To Design Professional Business Cards !!! the ideal card for any situation.
Before we get into this, guys, you know what I'm going to ask, for you to subscribe to
my YouTube channel. That way, these videos come right to you. You don’t miss any of
them and they're delivered right to your inbox because if they're not, you're going to miss
my ghost videos, which you guys know I'd put out there and they're only out there for about

to
business flyers hours. If you miss those, you don’t get the link from YouTube saying, "Hey, Antonio
has uploaded a new video." Well, you're just never going to see them. You're going to miss
them. Let's just say I'm going to have fun with those ghost videos.
Let's go ahead and jump into the content. Guys, these five tips aren't going to apply
for every single one of you, and that's the key. Number one, you need to understand your
purpose for the business card. Me, I'm a business owner. I have multiple businesses. When I
use business cards and I go to events, sometimes I'm speaking. Other times, I'm simply sitting
back in the audience, but I'm at a point with my business where I'm pretty selective about
who I want to spend time with.
So my business cards are geared a little bit differently. They actually say just simply
"business owner" on them. They only have my email address because honestly, I am very
careful about who gets my phone number now. That business card, for many people, especially
if you look online, they'll say it violates a number of rules, but for me, it serves my
purpose. It actually is something that has plenty of room that I can write on the back
of it and it sends the message that I want to send.
A good example, I met a guy named Chris Brogan who's at the New Media Expo, shook his hand.
He didn’t know me from atom, but I knew who Chris is. Chris is actually one of the
leaders on the internet, just for the last decade has been someone out there leading
the charge on what the worthy internet is taking us and what it's going to do. He's
got a very popular blog.
Now, when he looked at my business card and he saw "owner", it immediately sparked his
interest. I also mentioned at some point where he picked up that I was in the Marine Corps,
so all of a sudden, he meets a Marine who's a business owner. It turns out he owns The
Business Owner Magazine, so he was very interested. It turned into a guest post.
Now, my purpose was to send the message and to connect with other business owners, people
that are running companies that I respect and I knew that they would pick up on that
kind of stuff, so my business card, number one, served its purpose.
Now, let's look for you. If you're out there looking for a job, then that business card
needs to in a sense send that message. You don’t want to be using a business card from
some other company you used to work at. Instead, get a new business card that actually says
-- maybe it lists some of your unique skills, some of the things that sets you apart, not
a full resume because you don’t want the card to be cluttered, but you want to make
that positive first impression. You want it to be memorable. That's very important because
if you're memorable, you're actually referable.
Oftentimes, you're going to meet somebody, give them your card, and to be honest, there's
not going to be a connection. There's not really a way that they can help you. However,
if you're memorable, if you're somebody that strikes into their memory, then you'll be
able to -- in a sense, when they meet somebody and they're like, "You know, I just met someone
that you need to meet," and they could pull out your card, they're going to be able to
make that connection, so number one, focus in on the purpose of your card.
Number two, keep it simple. Make sure the card is readable. You will not believe how
many business cards I get from other people, and they're actually difficult to read. They're
actually cluttered with information. It's actually even hard to understand who is this
person and what are they doing. Make sure you use a readable font. Not everyone actually
has perfect vision. A lot of people, they may misread it and they'll simply throw it
away. You get a very short time frame. So again, make sure it's got your best contact
information and multiple forms of contact information.
Now, I just said that I violate this rule, but I do it on purpose to create barriers,
but if you're out there looking for a job, you want to have a great email, a professional
email. You want to have your phone number. You perhaps want to have your LinkedIn profile
so that they can go see that. Not everyone is going to want to have their LinkedIn profile,
but for you, it's probably going to be important because it's going to be relevant again to,
number one, your purpose.
The other thing is that some people just prefer to talk different ways. I like to talk on
the phone. I also like to interact with people, believe it or not, via videos. Sometimes I
send people video messages, but a lot of people don’t like to do that. They would rather
type everything out, so that's why you also want to have multiple forms of contact so
that the person that wants to reach out to you with an opportunity can reach you via
their preferred method.
The last thing about it is make sure it's clean. This is where you want to have room.
[
I like to keep it clean because I do carry a pen and oftentimes, I can write on the back
especially if I'm speaking to someone and they're really creating a great, solid impression.
I sometimes write notes because I don’t have to remember it, then I can put that business
card in my pocket.
So we've talked about having your purpose, keeping it simple. The other part, number
three, is make sure the information is accurate. I have actually received business cards in
which the information -- they just had them printed out and the information wasn't accurate.
This also applies if you are changing jobs or you're with a new company. Don’t give
somebody your old business card. That may be all you have, but it doesn’t send the
right impression, so don’t go with a pen mark.
That's another thing I see, which is really bad, is that people just write -- they'll
scratch it out and they'll write their new phone number. To me, that shows a lack of
preparation that you're not taking this super seriously. And honestly, it's much harder
to read, so we're going back up to the part of it being simple and readable.
A lot of times, I can't read it or if it gets wet, all of a sudden it smudges. Guess what?
I'm not going to be able to contact you. Please make sure it's the right company. It's one
of those things oftentimes when we look at it and you want to make sure that's associated
with you. So we've talked about purpose, simplicity, making sure it's accurate. Make sure it's
professional.
Now, we've talked about this at the very beginning, but look at the email. Oftentimes, people
are using these email addresses like fatheroffivekids@aol.com. Now, that's cool. I'm having my fourth child
on the way, so I respect being a dad, but when I see a business email like that, I'm
wondering, does this guy actually take it that seriously? That's a personal email.
Don’t use personal emails unless they look professional. Gmail is pretty good. The new
Outlook emails aren't bad. The Hotmail emails, I know, have gone away, but there are a number
of emails out there that are really long and convoluted. Try to avoid things. Go with something
simple, something that's clean, something that's professional. I would avoid Yahoo!
emails as well. Just the word "yahoo", if you look up what it means, it actually doesn’t
have a professional sound to it. I don’t know. Maybe the company will rebrand at some
point.
The other thing is make sure that the actual card is clean. I know this should go without
saying, but I've had people hand me smudged, dirty cards that they had in their back pocket
for I don’t know how long. Honestly, I don’t want to even touch the thing.
The other thing is have a system for handing out cards. What do I mean by this? Whenever
I hand out cards, my right pocket contains my business cards. My left pocket on my jacket
contains the business cards of others. So when I take your business card, I put it -- it
depends on the gentleman. Sometimes, I often acknowledge the card. I look at it. There
are some cultures where you want to acknowledge the card. Basically, it's a sign of disrespect
if you put it away too quickly, but I always put them in my left pocket. Then I take out
my business cards and hand it to them from my right pocket.
The reason I do this -- and I've seen people hand me other people's business cards especially
at networking events where business cards are going all over the place, so make sure
you've got a system for it. Again, that's my system. Feel free to copy it, but that's
the one that works for me.
The last thing, and this is something I see again and again, is have plenty of business
cards. I see people that go to conferences and after the first day, they have run out
of cards. Don’t let that be you. Really plan ahead. If you're going to a conference
with
people, we'll take
business cards. That's a good amount. A lot of times,
people go there and they take
or
business cards.
If you do that, you need to be really strategic in who you hand them out to. Otherwise, you're
going to run out very quickly, and who knows? You could easily give out
business cards
in
minutes if you're someone that's really working the room and meeting a lot of people.
I know for me, because I'm a speaker, a lot of people want my business cards, so I'll
simply put a small stack in front and people can just come by and grab it and reach out
to me later.
Another thing I do with business cards is I strategically place them in various points
so that even if I mistakenly forget my big stack, I've got in all of my sports jackets
-- I've actually got about
to
business cards in various pockets on the inside. I
do this because I don’t forget my sports jackets and the business cards are always
there, so that's one thing I do.
Another thing is I carry the case. Actually, I have a very nice case, which if we go back
to keeping them professional, looks very nice. It keeps them clean, but actually having the
case, putting it in my luggage, it's actually on my checklist whenever I pack and I go places.
Another place I keep business cards, inside my car or truck. Now, if I'm flying, I'm not
going to have access to it, but a lot of times I'll go some place and by having
to

business cards in the console of my vehicle, I can always go back out and grab those, and
then be armed at least with those
to 100 cards.
[
The final place where I keep at least five business cards is inside my wallet. Now, sometimes
they do get a little bit beat up and yes, we're going to violate that, but that's better
than me having nothing. I keep them in a small little case, a little plastic case that actually
does a decent job of protecting them. No smudges get on them, but they do get bent up occasionally.
However, that's better than not having anything.
Let me know what you think and hopefully you found this video useful. I would love for
you guys to go over to Real Men Real Style and join my email list, and grab your copy
of my free 47-page ebook on men's style. I actually give a number of tips on how to be
a better man, on how to use certain different techniques. We talk about negotiation. We
also talk about things like this, this business card, and how to be a better man.
So hopefully, you guys found this video useful. I'll see you in the next video. Take care.
Bye-bye.

How To Create a Print Ready Business Card Design !!!

English English
Hello everyone this is Chris from Spoon Graphics back with another video tutorial. Today I'm
going to run through the process of designing a business card and talk about some of the
important things to consider when designing for print. How To Create a Print Ready Business Card Design !!! It's super important that you get things like bleed, color mode and resolution right when
you're creating your artwork, otherwise you might end up having your files rejected by
the printer, having to start again from scratch or even worse, receiving hundreds of prints
back that look nothing like your design!
So hopefully this guide will cover each step and ensure your print projects go smoothly.
Business cards are a common printed product that are fairly simple to design, but before
you start, make sure you receive specific artwork instructions from the printer you're
best online printer going to use. Every company has their own preferences, so the settings I'm using in
this tutorial might not match up exactly to what your printer wants, but at least you'll
know what they're referring to when they say stuff like trim size and bleed size.
We're going to use a mix of Illustrator and Photoshop to make the most of each application's
strengths. The overall design will be composited in Illustrator, so we'll start there.
Create a new document and enter the dimensions of the business card in the artboard size
settings. A common business card size is 88x55mm, but again, make sure you check with your printer
first on their exact product specs. If you're in the US, you'll probably find the measurements
are in inches as opposed to millimeters.
The print firms I've used required 3mm bleed, so enter
press Tab to apply it to all sides. Bleed is basically some padding around the edge
of the design which is cut off during the printing process. It ensures that you don't
end up with tiny slithers of white paper along the edge of your prints if the machine isn't
lined up exactly.
We're designing for print, so select the CMYK color mode so we're working in Cyan, Magenta,
Yellow and Black inks as opposed to RGB light. Then most business cards are double sided,
so increase the number of artboards to
The main white area of the artboard is the finished business card size, also known as
the trim size. The red outline indicates the bleed area which any backgrounds will need
to extend to.
It's also wise to highlight a safe area within your document. This not only makes sure your
important elements like a name or logo aren't too close to the trim area that they risk
being chopped off, it also helps balance your design by applying some margin around the
edge.
The size of the safe zone is entirely up to you but
enough to look neat. You can highlight this area using guides, or draw a rectangle then
right click and select Make Guides.
I want a black background for my card design, so I'll grab the rectangle tool and draw a
shape that covers the entire bleed area, clearing out the stroke to leave just the fill colour.
A black background sounds simple enough, but there's a whole plethora of different blacks
in print design. If you move the colour picker to black you'll notice it's made up

in RGB, which means there's no light so it's as dark as you can get, but look over at the
CMYK values and they're all over the place, totalling at
to be printed when you consider the general limit is around
There's a basic 100% K black, which uses just the black ink from the standard CMYK process
colours. This is good for text because just using one ink out of the four CMYK colours
means you'll get the sharpest possible print, but when it's applied to a large area it can
look a bit washed out.
Rich black is the term used for mixes of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black that result in a
deeper black. A common one on 50, 40, 40,
four CMYK colours you set in your software and the amount of ink printed with each plate.
The trouble is, this particular colour mix uses all four plates, so it has a high risk
of misregistration which can cause fuzzy text, often seen on cheap newspaper prints.
A couple more common blacks are warm black and cool black, which mix
Cyan or Magenta. These two recipes only use two plates so it's much safer to use with
small text while still darkening the black. The difference between them, as their names
suggest, is one has more of a cooler blue tone, whereas the other has a warmer browny
red tone.
I'm going to use blue elsewhere in my design so I'll go with cool black to complement it.
Set up the colour manually by entering the relevant percentages in the CMYK values.
You can now begin building your business card design by bringing in a logo. Scale it to
size and align it to the safe zone guides.
There's no white ink in printing, unless it's a super specialist print. Giving something
a white fill in your software will translate to the other elements being knocked out to
allow the paper to show through.
When entering the text for your print design,
A business card is held up close so you can get away with generally smaller type, but
be careful if you're using elegant fonts with high contrast, there's a point where fine
lines become unprintable. The slab-serif Achille font I'm using is pretty robust so it can
handle
One thing to keep in mind when designing for print is the paper stock forms a large part
of the final design, which you don't get to see on screen. A lot of people try to add
gradients and drop shadows to make their designs more interesting, but these often just muddy
the final print. An area of flat colour might look boring on screen, but when its printed
you'll see the texture of the paper with a matte or glossy finish.
In my design I'm enclosing the main name and contact info in a white box, which needs extending
up to the bleed area. The text within this area needs to be black. I could keep using
cool black with 50% Cyan, but there's not really any point seeing as the text isn't
a large enough area to see the difference. All it does is risk misregistration, so instead
normal
For the other side of my business card design I'm going to leave the background white but
make use of a photo, so Photoshop comes into play here to use its strengths as an image
editor.
We need to recreate the business card document size in PSD format, so create a new document
and change the dimensions to millimeters. Photoshop doesn't have a separate bleed setting
so we need to calculate the total dimensions.
likewise 55+3+3=61mm. All print work needs to be
the resolution to
pixels per inch, then set the color mode to CMYK.
We can't see where the actual trim line is but setting the safe zone up using guides
will make sure the elements are laid out nicely. A quick way to do this is to set the size
of a marquee then snap the guides to it.
I want to have the logo and a tagline on this side of the card so I'll paste in the logo
graphic from Illustrator and type out the text with the relevant font. Usually it's
advised to add all your text in Illustrator because it's made in crisp vectors rather
than fuzzy pixels, but I'm going to overlay a photo, so Photoshop is the best option in
this scenario.
I've downloaded this space scene from Shutterstock. Pasting it into the document will automatically
convert it to CMYK and reformat it to 300ppi. This is a nice high resolution stock photo
so I've actually got to scale it down a lot. You don't want to try and use small images
from the web because they'll only be the size of a postage stamp in print terms, unless
you upscale them, which will make them look totally ugly.
The effect I'm looking for can be created using a layer mask. Filling it with black
hides the entire photo, then the areas I want visible can be selected and filled white.
Use Photoshop any time you're working with textures and images as part of your print
designs, then add text and logos in vector format over the top in Illustrator. When you're
done, save the file as a JPG using the normal Save As command so it retains the resolution
and colour mode.
Back in Illustrator this background can be placed onto the artboard for the other side
of the business card.
Before exporting the final print file it's wise to outline your fonts by pressing CMD+A
to Select All, then CMD+Shift+O to Create Outlines. This eliminates any chance of your
font not being picked up when it's opened on the printer's computer and defaulting to
something boring.
Go to File > Save As and select PDF. There's some options to add printer's marks but unless
your printer has specifically asked for them just leave them off. There's also a PDF setting
here that might be required.
This file now contains both business card sides in one print ready document. You can
give the file a quick check over by opening it in Adobe Acrobat.
Look for the Output Preview tool and toggle the various plates to see how the design will
be printed using the 4 process colours. In my design you can see Magenta and Yellow aren't
used at all on the first side and just black is used on the name area.
On the other side, the photo is made up of various percentages of all four colours.
If you're new to print design this video might have bombarded you with loads of information,
but hopefully it was a comprehensive guide to the things you need to consider when setting
up a print file. If you did find the video useful a thumbs up to help spread the word
would be really appreciated and if you want to stick around for more, remember to hit

cards from scratch and I'm gonna go over how to do that in the next video we can
also upload a business card that we've already created or you can look through
all of the different options and templates that they have right down here
so I think this video we're gonna start by going over a template I'm going to go
down here to where it says photography because I'm a photographer and I want to
choose the photography template and I think I'm gonna do something that's
pretty simple so that we get the basics of what we're doing that and I don't
like my stuff being flashy like this I'd like it to be more simple straight to
the point so that people just see my name and information so I think this one
looks good I'm gonna go down here and I only gonna click on Customize
know once I'm down there it'll bring me up to this wizard in this is everything
that we can change on the business card surveyed over here we have it all we're
all of the different text is in order to change with something says we simply
clicking here and change that you can also change the different phone options
even change what font is the size its alignment in the color and the controls
for copying delete an undo all the way up here as well and has a couple options
for uploading your own images and putting in your own clipart but I think
we're gonna save that for the next video where I go more in depth into creating
our own cars so in order to do this I simply want to just create my very own
car that's nice and simple and to the point and since we're doing the two
hundred and fifty free option I'm only going to customize the front side
because that only offers the front side for absolutely free so in order to do
that where it says company name I think I'm gonna tighten my name right down
there no that's not how to spell my name and then where it says photographer I
think I'm gonna change the font a little bit because I don't really like the one
that's their right now we're going to change it to the same one or something
similar is the one that my name is and I'm gonna change the size on in order to
make it so that you can actually see it a little bit better I think

sounds good I'm also gonna change the size of my name to like maybe

sounds better and then I'm gonna move them around using the arrow keys on my
keyboard
alright that looks good and i think im gonna get rid of some of these options
right here because I've already had my name because my name is the name of my
company of course I don't think I'm gonna put in my address either because
you know this instructional video on the internet I don't want anyone knowing
ride with so many simply just delete all these options by clicking on them and
clicking the Delete button up here and then i think im gonna change my website
information and i think im also gonna change the font on my website because I
don't really like that one it doesn't stand out that well this one looks nice
I think I'm gonna change it to do is a
point font that seems nice enough and
I think I'm gonna move it over here to the side a little bit and I'm going to
create a new text box by clicking right here and i think im gonna put in my
email information and let's play a game and see how many times you can see my
name on these web on these business cards I think I'm gonna drag that over
there and i think im gonna make it match this orange one right here so that's a
twelve-point funds to change that to 12 points and also going to change it to
the same point is that one and i think im gonna choose it to be the same color
and I believe this template makes it a custom colors I'm gonna go here to where
it says custom color and its
and 12 perfectly fine for me so let's just
change this by going to custom

and it's exactly the same you know i think im gonna turn on the grid over
here so I can get these online a little bit better in a line this one to you
about right there on the little rectangle over here and I'm gonna do the
same thing for this one
that way they're kind of centered and then i think im going to select both of
these by holding down the shift button on my keyboard and clicking on them and
I'm gonna go up here to where it says a line in an online them to the vertical
center not the horizontal center but the vertical center and the only reason I'm
doing that is so that they're not on even with each other and I think the
final thing that I want to do is I'm gonna create a little line that goes
through my name and photographer because I think that'll separated out and make
it look a little bit nicer so in order to do that i'm gonna go up to where it
says shapes and I think I'm gonna add in just a basic rectangle and with that you
know dragged around to the side a little bit that's a little too big for what I'm
looking for but it looks nice and I'm gonna make it a little thinner and I'm
gonna put it in the center with that i think im gonna just movies out of the
way a little and then I'm going to select all
the line and photographer and I'm going to align these to the horizontal center
and with that there were we have my name photographer in my information down at
the bottom it's plain simple and to the point and that's what I want in a
business card now all I need to do is a need to save my design so many clicks
Eve and their name this to video number one and I'm going to click on Save and
then once that's done we can review the design for later if I actually go back
to the homepage if I go to where it says my account I click on my designs as you
see right here is video number one is right there and I can choose to order my
design change it around a little bit or do anything else right here I also have
a couple of their designs right here so you can tell I've been playing around
with this tool quite a lot recently but now we're gonna go back to the wizard
with a business card and we're gonna actually set this up in order a free
business cards so in order to do that i'm gonna click on where it says add to
cart and then click on Save once again
and once it's done saving it all we need to do is improve our design so it'll
show what the front of the business card looks like and what the back of the card
looks like now the back of the card is still the default for the template I
chose not to change the back because the
free design doesn't include back so
in order to do that we're simply going to just click on applying continue and
then we're going to select are designed so right now we want the
free cards
so we're going to go down here to the free option and click on that and I'm
gonna click on Continue and then I'm gonna click on the
free option right
down here and then click on the issuer e
point value card stock which again
absolutely free and if you're interested in some of the other options here like
the writable paper and a sixteen-point cardstock I'll be going over that more
in detail in my next video so now and click on Continue and then click on no
coding continue once again and it's gonna be squared corners and as you can
see it'll show everything that we've done so far and we can choose to go back
and change it if we like so that's what the front of our car looks like in the
back of our car as you can see is blamed but a little option that says free
business cards that print tastic dot com now if you order the free business cards
gonna come with that little bit of branding if you want to get rid of that
you simply just need to pay a little bit of extra money but I don't really see
the problem with having that on the back i mean they're giving us free business
cards after all and then once we're done with that we simply click approve an add
to cart and then it'll take us up to this option which will give us a little
bit of more suggestions so any of the other printing options they have your
such as signs stickers and all that kind of stuff you can choose to check it out
right here we don't want to do that right now because we're simply looking
your business cards and now it'll bring us up to our cart ways you can see the
prices absolutely free we've got you under
and we can choose to review
the designs over here and all you need to do now is click on checkout and
you're all set just simply type in your information and you'll be in your
business cards will be on the way and that's essentially everything you need
to know about creating your own business cards again the website is print testing
until next time my name is and what's printed business cards together *** ***

Setting up for print (Business Cards) InDesign !!!

the peep
what's up guys trying to create a gurney dot com television geysers
your documents up for print within InDesign and specifically for business Setting up for print (Business Cards) InDesign !!! cards
not this tutorial can benefit you know a lot of different ways because you hope
you become more familiar rise between design
as well the print process now I quickly made it his business card to show you
what we're gonna be doing to this tutorial
and yes you see here we know it is really simple business cards
are now to turn up the preview window you to sit W to turn it off and on
cheap photo prints online and as you see there once we do that we have to choose all that these grades in
lives near one-to-one /url lose are before start
are showing you how to set this up on explain you what you to these things are
the red outlined here are bound
are document is called are we'd essentially the bleeders their
it extends past the document window up
to ever amount size you set it to as
a kind of like a safe zone for when printing and it pretty much just account
for the movement of the printers
so there's a if you normally had I no bleed on there and you would go to print
and say the printer limine was off and he predicting sideways then you have a
problem
this pretty much eliminates that altogether by making sure when it goes
to print you're not going to have that
issue are now fighter turned the background of
BBC that on we have a document window here
and the Red buying goes about it inch or a quarter inch outside over document
window
and like I said that's is there to cap for any print issue so if you're
I wanting to trim it out as well on
you don't have to worry about I'll om cutting it and they're messing up in
having a white line
you're always going to have a clean collar coat all throughout
if you have a lead on their on so I do that promotes all my prince
our prime out with that and the economy exactly like the ruler
and you're always going to get a clean cut no matter if you mess up
so that's always a helpful way to make sure you're always going to ensure a
clean cut you know especially if you're
arms you know printing on expensive paper
in your life
pre you don't wanna have that
a possibility messing up to you always want to make sure
that you always have this do are set up now this purple on here's our margin
and such a dash is there to keep everything I nascent
organize and you came design outside a bit
but it is is they're saying okay this is where are
all my info tax images and stuff like that is going to be contained and I
don't want to go inside or outside it
and as you see here all my text in whatever
lines up to the margin and doesn't go outside it and that's just a nice
helpful way to keep things on ice
and organized on so now and show you guys how to set up a document like this
and how you get it ready for print so you go cue to file
new document command and or control and if your own PC
and what you gonna do you gonna have a new dialog box not generally
the preview section stern all you wanna make sure that's turned on C&C
with your documents doing as you can see here I
so up for when you first get it you're gonna have
the int sometimes it's set to Wed and that's going on actually said
pixels now you don't want that instead you I C
printing
and you wanted in inches is dead pixels so you always wanna make sure that is
on print and you're gonna make sure facing pages
unchecked now generally facing pages when you go to print its gonna print
front to back which
most printers can't do unless you have a printer that can print of front and back
pages
om but I truly don't print front to back because there's always
the printers that I always use always mess up the alignment of it so it is
always easier to
print individual pages and then trim about yourself now
generally you might have to happy simply just turned on if you saying sons to
print shop
on and they're like okay to deter basic pieces on that's the only time you
really have to you
but Gen II tend to keep that of
now now for the paper size gonna change it to US business card
which is
inches by two inches
and that's a standard our size for any business card
are but you can't really be anything you want odds hits all within budget
com and for number pages one said that it too because I was the one
a fun and Backpage are now
for the margins which was talking about boris has purple line
and as you can see it set up about a half an inch and
we don't want that we want it about a quarter-inch
likes so and thats is going to give us
I enough room to put all over contents inside without going too close to the
edge
and out down here is our lead NR slug which is was talking earlier
I'll now this is how far you can
disturb leaders essentially like a seko's pastor documents so you wanna set
how much you want to go past it
so I'll we could set this to the same inch
and see how big that box now as we see here inches
we too big for our business cards now you can send in an age
I'll but you really generally don't need to waste that much Inc
so we can send it out up

and that looks good to me that is gives us enough
room that we could trim without having any issues
now axes actually just clicked off that it mean to say let's go back to a
computer
I'll who file and document setup
and so if you'd like I just did there if you ever messed up where you want to
come back in edit something in your docking he's got here
file and document setup now
I for the slot you generally don't need to use log
are because we're not printing on old presses like to do so essentially with
the slug is
it was used for typesetting and typesetting you know originally was used
with wooden blocks and let blocks and there was stamp down
and you know that I'll take this is for me up but
slot was essentially there to account for the spaces in between paragraphs
and that's all that's therefore home whites in
II InDesign I'm not too sure because you know it's not really
I've never really had to use it I and II printed books before hitting the road to
use it so I don't really know whites in there but its ensuites as the whole time
type thing are you really can ignore it
our own so yeah that's quick history there
Priya for and we can just hit okay as you see here
resume now we have with our front I
and back document here I'll
now it's very easy to do once you have it set up now
another show you guys how I designed this because it's pretty straightforward
I'm pretty much here to show you guys have set up your document
and stuff like that now to set up for print
like this where it has all the bleed and what not I
made up a PDF here real quick for you guys to show you I
what happens when you print with cleaning stuff like that
so we go to print its gonna give you options for all marks
weeds and stuff like that and you're gonna when it prints out you're gonna
get a whole bunch of garbage
you deal with all this now essentially what it is
II CDs %uh circles here with the crosshairs are your registration marks
you generally don't need those
especially when you print business cards are but I just put them on their
for reference to show you what they are by general you don't need them in this
circumstance
and then these lines here on outside RR
remarks here on the very outside our remarks you can see where he extends
past
about it a half an inch and then these airlines are your crop lines for your
true mark sry wood trim with your who learn exactly like so
you as though sonya before if your ego trip here still trimming against the
whiteliner truman against the black color out the background so
if you mess up your not gonna have lost you know some like little
increment white line messing you up so that's what
%ah your not the documents will look like when you go to printed
and it's very helpful I use it all the time for my prince
and it's something that we should get in the habit of doing because it's just
away
to give you that extra step of professionalism if that's the way you
want to put it
on songs you guys have set this up right now are so once
you had your document set up in all your business cards are ready to go
and ready to print you got your I'll print
we hit can hit command P now you are seats left your printer
and you would set up how you know how many ranges
like a if you have multiple business card you set up your range but
we're going to hear suits like all and you
if you only plan pages you wanna make sure print blank pages
checked which iraqi encounter light which can be helpful upward keep down
checked
and then you gonna go cures setup wanna make sure the paper size
is set to I'll that put it on letter sheets
where is US letter as you see here this is where
business card printing but if you look here it's gonna be printing in the
left-hand corner of her paper we don't want taxes that may be able
to let us art room property so you just couldn't YouTube page position
and make sure centered now you see here now Center
inside a barred letter she sheet of paper
now once that's done you wanna go pee remark simply it's now this is what I
watched
showing you guys earlier on pedia where has all the bleeds on it
mom if we click on all printers mark that's going to give us all
upper the crop marks a bleed registration marks color bars and Paige
information
which is exactly what I'll show you guys earlier on the PDF
right here so yeah generally don't have to have all that in there
arm so like got you don't need color bars
com page information you can keep on their outlets you don't need
registration marks a generally
I you can just how crop marks flea market page information which is
essentially just gonna be the document name
the time that de you printed you can also set how thick you want the lines to
be
so you can set it to quarter financial use it to use your

you know whatever I have finished an eccentric but I usually keep it as your
point

and that's pretty much
it before that partial portion ovett on and you also wanna make sure that use da
complete settings
is checked because sometimes yet the printer can automatically set them
and you don't want that because that's going to mess-up doc meet the general
you don't have to worry about that
om so yeah and
and let's see if anything else is to be checked are
printers good printer are sometimes like I said if you're pretty if you are
facing pages on
wanna make sure that stern also in that case if you do you have
are facing pages on you want to turn them off you just couldn't hear the
layout
and then fari features and you make sure that too and finding
or printing is turned all not gonna our
stop it from printing double-sided and
now you have to do is hit hit print and you would get
essentially this on a letter she cheated Peter I am so yeah
now most and show you guys before I and thus to only be shown you guys want to
see you
about this document like I did hear into the PDF
with all the printers marks which can be helpful if you wanna send
it to print shop or whatever so once you're ready
like I said to print or your finalized in all that you got your file
any good out here too export and what you have that you just got here
format and make sure that it's on Adobe PDF print
not interactive if you do you interact if you're not gonna get the same
settings as you would hear
and we're just gonna call is obon Amrani
see and then you get this export Adobe PDF document file are
%ah dialog box
offer this you want to keep it of first and do you wanna sell it to PDF
axe or two you know whatever that is you want to make sure it's up to that
if you have that nine sometimes it screws up in everything our
compatibility matrix
set on the latest Weinzapfel print to PDF I

and
and it added that's not good you can disagree or that and then the real
important stuff is on mark simply needs
and since we already had it checked off on our printing settings it's already
checking of
in here as well so like I said it's just like in the printer you check in on
checking of
and the ego CDC export and as you can see here
it opens up our PDF with our print marks
bomb so yeah if you guys enjoy the video
