What software for business cards ?

What software can I use to create business cards except Word ? Thanks

When I did this allot, I would use photoshop and illustrator in order to create any logos, or images that I wanted. From there I would use Adobe In-Design in order to do the actual layout, and to make them multi up on a page for printing. Just remember when you are doing your layout that a standard business card is 2" tall by 3.5" wide. Also remember when you are setting them onto a page for printing that "MOST" printers will not print within .25" of the edge of a piece of paper. With that in mind you will need to make sure that you either compensate and shift all of your content in on the page in order to keep it from being a problem, or make sure that nothing is printed (including any background) within .25" of the edge of the card itself. You can set up cards to get 12 individual cards onto a single sheet by setting them up into a landscape format and placing your first card in top left corner of that sheet, then do 3 cards across, and 4 cards down on the page.
There are also LOTS of business card specific programs out there that you can try out, but I found that I got best results by using the programs that I mentioned above.

    I found "Determine Fields for Business Card on Area Page" in customizing and added new field, but it doesn't show in ESS portal service.

    Bizcards is only customizable via IMG as of EHP3
    Lower releases might require additonal steps/modifications
    For EHP3 you need to ensure you are using EHP3 software components and have EHP3 business
    function switched on (be careful though switching on this function is only reversal via restore to point in time
    before switching it on) - also check note 1159911 if you  have switched this one and/or see no fields
    Worth also trying the following
    Check V_T7XSSPERBIZFLD for existing fields and positions
    Add supplementary fields and position numbers to V_T7XSSPERBIZFLD
    OR
    Check V_T7XSSPERBIZFLD for existing fields and positions
    Overwrite required positions and fields in V_T7XSSPERBIZFLC

  • Pages templates for business cards.

    Pages has templates for business cards. How do you modify/change them and then print to Avery forms?

    In Pages open the appropriate Avery word template (from their website) for their BCard sheets, then copy over a single BCard from the Apple templates.
    Modified that to your liking.
    You can option drag copies of objects in Pages so just option shift drag copies into place.

  • What software for old Nomad

    Hello
    I picked up a couple of used older Nomad's, a 6gb Jukebox and a 64kb Nomad II MG.
    But I didn't get the drivers or software to go with it. I went to the creative download site but am not sure what to use. Can someone tell me what software to download for these ? I'll be using it with an XP system.
    Thanks in advance
    Jim

    Hi Jim
    Try here for your Jukebox 6GB:
    http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ype=0&details=
    and here for your Nomad II:
    http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ype=0&details=
    Use the drivers and latest firmware for each of the players, get MediaSource from the Jukebox list, and the Nomad II pack for MediaSource from the Nomad list.
    MediaSource lets you store and organize your music on your PC and then transfer it to your players.

  • What software for print production (magazine)? InDesign or other...

    I am new in the field of print production. Do you have a favorite software for this field? I do have CS3 but is the Web premium and it does not have InDesign. Should I buy it? Or, is there another one more user-friendly and easy to work with printing companies.

    Hi Numacr,
    This is a question with a potentially long answer. I am a professional designer and web developer. I've done all forms of print production and web production.
    In a nutshell... the industry standards change from time to time. Fortunately for you, they've recently changed over the past few years. Now, unless you have publications or ads going to a printer in a small town somewhere with older presses and such, you will be just fine with the Adobe CS3 design suite.
    Industry standard software are as follows:
    Adobe Photoshop
    Adobe Illustrator
    Adobe InDesign
    Adobe Acrobat Pro
    Unless you're doing large format printing (ie. banners, billboards, etc.) you are pretty much able to send a high-res PDF file. Sometimes you can even send the InDesign or Illustrator files to the printer.
    I'd also suggest joining an InDesign group online... go to Adobe's website to check it all out.
    The other option for a page layout program is Quark, but I wouldn't recommend it. They've only recently come around to improve their software, but it's too late. Pretty much everyone is now using Adobe InDesign.
    Hope this helps.

  • Any software for making Cards, Collage of photos?

    I want to make a Collage with some photos and also I want to make some cards.
    Which software can I use of that?

    I don't know of any solution that can be done by absolutely untrained personnel.
    If they can run Excel, one could make a data merge template. The employees would need to be able to make changes to the Excel file. But you can make all but the entry cells protected so the spreadheet headers at least cannot be altered. And they would still need to start InDesign and be taught how to merge to a new document.
    I created an XML run-in template for a local business and taught them how to edit the XML, start ID and update the link. At the beginning they had a few issues, but after a few visits for follow-up training, they have been running it for a couple years without too much of an issue. I still need to make new run-in templates once in a while, but they don't need trained on how to use them any more.
    Seems to me the data merge might be easier to train your customer to do as it is pretty much like mail merge in Word, etc.

  • Software for greeting cards

    I have no idea where to post my question, so I'll begin here.
    Is there software available for Macs that will enable me to print my own greeting cards, e.g., birthday cards, thank you notes, get well cards, etc.?
    Thanks!
    eMac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    We’ve got a family business (small plug!: http:/www.richardwoodgate.internet-today.co.uk) producing a range of prints, laminated bookmarks and cards from original watercolour and acrylic paintings. The images used are all stored in iPhoto and then we print from iPhoto to our Epson printer in N-up format (Epson only setting?) which prints multiple images to a sheet - usually 6 or 9. We then cut them out by hand with a straight-edge/guillotine and use double sided tape to attach them to the front of the cards which we buy in from a wholesaler with matching envelopes and cellophane bags for display.
    The book marks are produced in Pages - images and text are arranged and formatted before being ‘grouped’. Each bookmark is then duplicated to fill the sheet and then sent to print.
    We are expanding into printing directly onto the front of cards and producing cards with messages inside. For the time being, we will be using some ‘in-house made’ Pages templates as and when our new printer arrives.
    To be honest, it is a bit of a crude setup, but it works wonders, and the speed and efficiently of the Mac enables us to produce and market top-quality goods. Any image manipulation is done using The GIMP.

    The 9600 has advantages over the 5200. If you aren't looking for "night and day" performance increases, the 9600 will offer increases in performance over the 5200, and may provide enough for your needs.
    As a bonus, though, you would be able to run a 30" Cinema Display with the 9600, should you so desire.

  • What software for someone to help with Premiere Pro CS5

    For the last 9 months I have been processing video using PP CS5 for a small church.  The church is now recording several programs and I would like some help in processing the videos that are created.  The church is small so probably can't afford a copy of the software that I have, so I will have to propose some options for them.  The two that come to my mind are:
    1) Adobe allows me to have two machines loaded with Master Collection CS5.  Since I am only using one, I could install on another person's computer.  I think this may be somewhere less than the spirit of the EULA.  Besides, I am not real anxious to do this anyway.
    2) Help them find a low cost alternative.  I think they may be able to do this for $100 to $200 for the software.  All they need to do is to trim the ends of the extra film, then add some title slides and save to Flash for the website and burn to DVD for archive.  As an option, they might be able to make a menu for the archive DVD.
    Anybody know of any other options or suggested low end video editing software.  BTW, I took a quick look at Cyberlink PowerDirector and I could not find a way to save in the Flash format - other than creating a Youtube account and then sending the video directly to Youtube.

    Colin,
    You are correct. PrE will handle AVCHD on an adequate computer. It will edit, allow Titles, PiP, many Effects (too many are Auto only, however), and can Export/Share to Flash, with one big caveat - there is NO Transparency available from PrE, like from PrPro, so no sprites, etc. Just plain FLV.
    The files that PrE works from will work in PrPro and vice versa. However, the use of a PrPro PRPROJ (Project file) will NOT work in PrE. A PrE PREL (Project file) might Open in PrPro, but there are a bunch of things that can keep this from working correctly: Themes/Instant Movies, some New Blue FX Effects and Transitions, etc., that are specific to PrE. Otherwise, if PrE and PrPro are contemporary, say PrE 9 and PrPro CS5, and not of that "stuff" is used, it is likely that a PrE 9 PREL will Open in PrPro CS5 - I can do that with PrE 4 and PrPro 2.0/CS2, as they were contemporaries. I cannot Open later PrE PREL's in PrPro 2.0/CS2, and only get a failure.
    For simple editing (especially if one is not intending on migrating between PrE & PrPro), PrE should fit the bill nicely. Much more is done "behind the scenes," and the GUI is more of a "Big-Button" solution, than PrPro, where one has much more control, though much needs to be done by hand. There are also some MAJOR layout differences between the two GUI's, but with some training, one can go with either pretty easily.
    Hope that this helps,

  • Photoshop - layouts for business cards, bleed edge etc

    Hey
    I've been told by some printers that I need to put a bleed edge for them. I'm alright with that part....
    But they asked for me to put bleed edge marks so I don't have to pay for the extra layout costs.
    Any idea what they meant or how to do it?
    Thanks very much

    I'm sure the phone conversation took longer than it would for your printer to add bleed marks. Personally I always hated "bleed" marks added by the customer for a bunch of reasons, but to each their own.
    <br />
    <br />Make a file 1 inch bigger than your BC (typically a file 4.5 x 3). Then make guides at 0.375 and 0.5 inches from the top, bottom, left and right. If you set your rulers to inches and hold the shift key while you draw the guides (click on the ruler and drag into the image), you should have an easier time hitting 0.5. Make sure the info palette is visible so you can see the guide coordinates.
    <br />
    <br />Then use the pencil tool with 2 pixels width to paint (in black) the marks. Make sure to stay outside the 0.375 guides. This is your bleed and you don't want marks creeping into it. Use the marquee tool to check you got the size right: the inner box (trim) should be 3.5 x 2, and the outer box (bleed) should be 3.75 x 2.25.
    <br />
    <br />If I were to build a bleed BC, I would build it 3.75 x 2.25 and tell them it bleeds on all four sides. Their stance is a red flag as far as I'm concerned.

  • What type of paper setting should I adjust my printer to for printing business cards?

    HP PSC 2210 all in one
    Win XP Pro Media 3rd ed.
    No error message
    no changes made to the system
    I am trying to print out some business cards using Avery 5876 2-sided printable business cards.
    When I print a test sheet out of my biz cards on regular 20# paper stock and adjust the settings just so, everything goes well and a trial run using the regular 20 # stock everything comes out great!  But when I put in the Avery card stock and hit go, the printer goes a lot slower while making the script and images very dark with excess toner on the card stock only.  But not on the paper stock. Why is this?  
    Should I should change the paper settings on the printer from automatic to what setting for business card stock?  If so, to what setting? -- Special papers, greeting cards, brochure papers or what???  PLEASE ADVISE.
    THANKS,
    Scott

    Is the stock designed for inkjet printers?  The cardstock is likley being misread as photo paper by the automatic sensor.  I would suggest trying with brochure paper, other inkjet paper or card stock in that order.
