Card Maker

Second question group, as I have no experience with PDFs, do you happen to know if I went to an Office Max or Staples and asked them to print the cards from 2015 Promoter prime on card stock front and back, would the cards align properly? What alignment or program do you use to actually insure that the cards are aligned properly front and back?

Thanks so much in advance!

for Office Max or Staples (and Kinkos,) from my experience it depends on the skill of the staff involved which varies. When I needed cards printed from pdfs there were times when they came out fine and times when they did not turn out well. I also had someone at Office Max once try to tell me it was not technically possible to print front and back on cardstock from a pdf which is obviously incorrect.

What I did instead was use a professional printing service to print out my cards which turned out perfect. It cost a little more but the cards turned out great and they even cut the cards for me as well. Unfortunately, the print shop I was using did not survive the pandemic lockdown but I would go to a similar location before trying my luck again at a place like Office Max.

Yeah I am thinking of going somewhere with that. I have a long list of boots I would love to see/use. Do you know if there is a color Dick The Bruiser, Pat Patterson, and Bruiser Brody available anywhere in PDF form?

Brody has an official card so its frowned upon making bootlegs of such people.

Don't know if DTB has one.....I have one for PP I believe that Tim made but I don't think its color.

Bruiser Brody has an official LOW color card in the first LOW color card set.

That is great news! I am planning on getting the Color Starter set. I love Brody on the Network, RIP. August cannot get here quick enough, when I have the money to dive into my feds. Maybe I will start in June

BTW, Pat is sort of color (it's a picture of him but its in color) but its back only.

Would love to see it if you’ve got it!

Also anyone else - scaling if the PDFs are printing full page, any ideas how to stop that from happening?

Hi I am that guy, you can reach me at krazykards.com or email me at [e-mail].

I can make your cards better than any Office Max, Staples or Word template could ever do. All cards are created in Photoshop and printed on only the best paper that costs me over $30 dollars a box and not much paper in a box. Then I print with high res 11x17 printer, after printing both sides the cards are then laminated and cut to size with rounded corners. I have been printing and producing professional quality sets for over 20 years so I have experienced every printer problem you can know. I have had purchased over a dozen printers and tested many paper types over the years. Also as far as fonts I do not use Arial that is like an artist font no no to avoid at all costs! Krazy Kards cards are not cheap, but you are getting way more then you pay for.

KK does awesome work.
