Folding & Printing Tips
- Score Before Folding: Lightly score along fold lines using a ruler and a blunt tool (like a scoring tool or butter knife). This ensures clean, precise folds and prevents the paper from cracking.
- Paper Choice: Print on at least 170g cardstock for a sturdy, professional finish. Check more information.
- Printer Settings: Set your printer to "Best Quality" and "Actual Size" (100% scale) to maintain the correct dimensions.
- Test First: Always print a test page on scrap paper to check alignment and color accuracy before using your nice cardstock.
File Specifications
- High-Resolution: Files are provided at 300 DPI in PDF and PNG formats.
