the welcome to graphics TV your source for graphic design tips and tutorials here is your host Mac hi everyone How to design a business card in illustrator !!! today I want to share with you the steps I took to design his business card let's take a look okay a book illustrator open someone thought by opening up in you working documents from going to go to File new and make sure you've got inches for the whip two inches with the height and point to five inches digital prints for the bleed and click OK right so good I document open I'm to minimize that we need to work on the front and backside of the business card so we need to make a duplicate of this working area some click here hold on old cutie click and drag this going to be our front and it's gonna be the back of the business card right so next we need to bad a background complain to PP cure and change foreground color to black and then I'm going to click on this rectangle tool and create a background so I've got the documents in operating some gonna switch over to that okay so we here in my document that I set up and you so what do we do even when a switchover to the works logo and drag if you an image that I need in my dsi so I thought of by dragging a symbol next I added the name the title the phone number and email address so what I did is I moved over to the back of the business card design and I started off with the background in black and then again I dragged the symbol and then I also added the QR code now when you scan this qr-code is going to show you the web address of this company so let me show you how I got the QR code okay I'm gonna go over to Firefox and type in Kerala QR stop com and which one to use you own a type in your you are all in their and you create QR code he's generated in this preview automatically so what if indeed it is I downloaded the QR code and clicked and dragged its into my Illustrator file okay so once I've got that and the last thing I did bees hi added the logo okay in this business card design we use to the rule of thirds on the front of the business card so you can see this symbol only takes up a third of the business card and two-thirds he's left for days information okay and then on the back of the business card we used this symbol to director I to where the QR code is okay so finally what we need to do is we need to export this file and have it ready for print so what I'm going to do that went to go to File save as and then select PDF and click say alright already save this document storms will take replace right so won't be here what I need to do is a need to click on high-quality prints and then go to marks and marks and leads and make sure look trademarks is selected use document bleed settings selected and then click safe PDF this is the file you need to send over it the printing company is ready okay so there you have it designing a business card mission the miss the graphics TV dot com for more tips and tutorials

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 online photo printing service 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 be sure to leave a like and if you're not a subscriber to create a grenade be sure to select that subscribe I N and if you only tutorial suggestions be sure to leave a comment below and there was guys I hope you dream I'm good with

English English 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 card printing costs 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.

anyone take everything and good object paths offset way but i doing now patrol ship to now sorry about that slow moment either convert everything outlines so that taxed can no longer edit it but that's why we saved now the front I a at that we still have a good still make adjustments but the reason we changes have course to outlines is because when you send it to I some idiot printed if they don't have that font then scanned its gonna get all messed up so you have to convert everything to outlines alright so I'll that is the designer these are resigned course for our front in back so tomorrow we're going to use Adobe Photoshop and I to basically take the front and back and Kenneth present it the front and back design any cool have perspective 3de sort of environment so why would

hello and welcome to another every Tuesday tutorial this week's to trial comes to you courtesy of Jodi who had an awesome question I thought this week and how do you DIY bulk print business cards at home and being a DIY or myself of Bulk Print DIY Business Cards Using Illustrator !!! course I've done this before of actually DIY single business card I've ever made for myself personally I have a little bit of experience setting these up and of course I just wanted to claim this is exactly how I would do and have done in the past everyone's ways are different but I want to show you and share with you today exactly how I do it and make sure you watch until the end of this video cheapest prints online because I've got a special surprise for all of you at the end so that's sad really get started I threw together this quick business card design and this watercolor texture that i meeting is part of my watercolor texture kit monument to which I leave a link to you wanna see other textures that are part of that kid that's what I used right here to put this very quickly business card together and as you can see we better front of the business card and hit the back of the business cards and I've also included a bleed in abilene is extremely important if you had any artwork that quote unquote leads off of the actual our porn so since this texture extends beyond the regular board I need to make sure that my front and my back of the card has a clean line in the way that you apply this show really quick so this is the standard size of a business card is three and a half inches by two inches here in the us- and in order to set this file up I did file new and all I did over here as I said maybe but two three and a half inches my height inches and then right here where it says believe this record in point one to five inches and that is the standard for a bleed on a business card and then if you toggle done this little advanced air right here just make sure color motor CMYK because of you are printing in whenever you print anything you wanna make sure color mode is set to CMYK ok so all that said I hit OK and then I had this are portrayed here in this red line is your believe live so leave the really important because when you're printing the sound you go to cut it yourself you don't want any weird like stray whites livers of lines because no one can really cut a line is so perfectly that you wouldn't even have a little airline of wait to see what she'd give yourself a little breathing room when you're cutting so this is what this little blue line allows the space race when a bit of an inch allows you a little room for error as you're cutting out so right now we've got the front of our business here we have the back of a business card and now I'm gonna show you how I set it up in Illustrator to print in bulk at home just using my regular old home printer and because I'm using a home printer that means my keeper side by inches portrait so we're just gonna come up here and go style now and we're gonna make sure right here I've got it set to letter which defaults to you in half by I do not need to bleed on this because I don't have anything extending beyond the edges of the sheet of paper and i wanna make sure once again you talk about on this advanced air that it is a mi que and its PPI which is the print resolution standard and they're gonna ok all right we just have a plain white sheet of paper here and I need my ruler so many commander control our own a PC in what they do that rulers right here if you don't have enjoyed showing up regularly introduce right click on here you can change your settings have gotten just good to go alright so this is how I do it which some people may think it's not the most mathematical way ever but it totally works for me every single time so we share with you my keyboard and this is my rectangle Tory I'm gonna do is double click and I'm gonna put in three and a half inches by two inches so we're gonna pretend like this is the seismic are so I have a three and a half by two inch and if I replicate the seminar hold all and as a dragon shift to keep it straight and if you do a little bit of math this link three and a half inches this link is three and a half and just so that seven inches and a half inches with my paper and I have space right here that I need space between the cards in the name of space on the edge that I need to account for got seven inches that make up the card and I'm leftover with one and a half just so if we do just some basic math calculator alright so we have one and a half inches and we have three areas that we need to account for between those two cards I made by by three when you do that it's half an inch so come back into Illustrator I know I need half an entry here happened right here in half an entry here so come up here I'm just going to click on this left click and drag until I had happened it and then release and then if I just drag this business card over to that edge and i click and drag again this ad should land rate or in this needs to be another half-inch apart that would put it for free here and if I drag this business card over once again I need this half an inch brings me to the edge of the page for this purpose so we've got our vertical spacing all set so if I copy the address rubber bands like them both of them holding all clicking and dragging holding shift to keep them straight and if I grab these again you can see comfortably I can fit eight cards in this is called an eight up comfortably I can fit a cards on the same house by inch sheet of paper so now I have two inches right here two inches right here to hear into here so that's eight inches and the entire length of my paper is inches and I need to account for spaces so many graphic calculator again ken and I have my say is three inches and we have basis so that's point six ok so they come back in here and this is where it gets a little bit funky but it's this is another little cheat of mine so men had and I'm a keyboard and I need a height of point six inches so I don't have to like figure all the math every time half an inch was easy but
little difference I'm gonna flip flop these get rid of my stroke and now I just have this block that's the right height so if I drag it to the top of my are portrayed here and then I can just click and drag and this is where I need to set my first business card that line right here so then I know I can just write the story here same thing again and then I can just drag this last guy this and now I can delete cards you know I kind of have a rough layout so now in a draw and my own trim marks because with the bleed we need to make sure we have marks to trim so we know exactly where to cut the paper so if I come up here I'm just gonna hit like the backslash key on your keyboard to rate your line to learn here just wanna make sure you have to fill on this you just wanna make sure you have a stroke and I usually keep it up the default one point so it's not for me to see and don't even worry about it bleeding off the page you just want to make sure you come close to the finding that touch this line otherwise it'll rent on your actual card and I just gonna set fees and then I can also select all the all ships drag these babies down here and that those are set and then I'm gonna come over here and do the exact same thing alright last thing we need to worry about is our bleed and like we talked about before we have an eighth of an inch so we can do the math vertically and we're going to use our little cheap for the horizontal areas just because we'll get really funky if we don't ok so right here I need to come back and even an inch which is half of a quarter of an inch is right there and that's all just help me line up exactly where my card goes ok now for this purpose gonna use metal she and hitting a manicure double clicking and now this time I hate to be any evidence reversed that directory here ok so now we have verbally lines and here in this is our templates if I come over here to my layers I'm going to label this trim and good and I'm gonna like this where create a new layer and this could be my artwork Claire gonna jump back original business card designs and we're going to export each of these as a high res jpegs I'm gonna go file export and she's gonna put it to use JPEG done here use our boards definitely make sure this is checked and make sure all so we save as JPEG that has a bleed the believe will be included on that jpg expert this time to make sure my quality is all the way up to maximum and that my resolution is and it seemed like a good ok and that's saved and I'm gonna jump over here make sure you're trimming guidelines are locked when you get hit while place and choose the front of my card and I'm just gonna drop this rain here since we dragged our bags we know exactly where it needs to go some level
shift drag both of these in the sport's really fastest dropping a man you know you have to eat up that's perfectly mathematically correct and if you want your back to be created as well make sure you unlock this otherwise are trademarks are going to carry over to know and then you're going to have this little icon over here for our board tool and as you're covered over you got the cross hairs on your border and hold Alt drag old ships and this can make a copy you're not going to get those vertical lines in here because we are guides relax but that's ok because we've already got hurt remarks drawn so now you can realize you're trimming guidelines come back to your artwork clear and you're just gonna select all of your car cards and then you're gonna come over here to your links tell you can get two lines by going when do thanks and you're just gonna have this little linkbutton right here in this will really think those in your just gonna have to do this eight times which is a little known but the back of your card so there you go so when this princess you're going to have your little trademark so gonna take your ruler and line it up with this mark in this market then you're gonna make your cut down here and they're gonna leave your ruler cross the stopping of bob you're gonna cut so then definitely do a test run before you really good paper to make sure you're putting the paper in the right way because obviously wants to its the thought you want to turn it around and flip it over the right way so you know your actual business card over you don't have one star that's upside down and once I that's right side out so just want to make sure that you do that Joe test run first make sure you've got your method all figured out and then you can print this out as many times as you need to and you get a business cards out of each sheet of paper that you have so this is how I would balk print DIY your own personal business cards and if you stayed with me through this little more boring but very very important and tutorial my gift to you is I'm going to give you this illustrator template to use for yourself so if you go over to my blog every hyphen Tuesday dot com also leave a link here you can go over there and you can download this in it will open with any version of illustrator cs or newer so all this work will have been done for you so all you have to do is drop your business cards and if your business cards are sized three and a half inches by two inches tall so if you enjoyed this tutorial please subscribe released a new tutorial every single Tuesday make sure to head over to my blog every hyphen Tuesday icon for even more tutorials and a bunch of design freebies including this freebie this week thanks so much for watching and I'll see you next week
