2. Create/Customize your card

Sides of card. Now that you're on the "Create" screen you can customize the front, back & inside of your card. By default you will be taken to customize the front of the card first. Click on graphic to edit the respective portion of the card.

Click to add text. A text box will appear on your card.

• Replace default text with your own
• Move the text box to desired location by clicking and dragging a side of the box
• If you can't see all of your text, resize the text box dragging one of the corners (you will see cursor change when hovering over the corner, then click and drag)
• Format text using side pallet. Choose font type, font size, colour and alignment.
• Deleting a text box can be done by clicking on "Delete Selected Text" in the format text box.

TIPS

Get high quality. There are 2 main settings to focus on: Print Quality and Paper Type.
Note: some printer options may be labeled differently.

• Windows Users click on Preferences. Mac Users select the drop-down menu displaying "Paper/ Copy".
  
  
• Print Quality - Locate what is typically labeled "Print Quality" and set it to the highest setting.
  
  
• Paper Type - This is usually labeled "Paper Type" or "Media Type". By default most will be set to print on Plain Paper. Check the package of your card/ photo paper to see how it is classified and choose the closest option.
  For card paper that is coated, the Matte Photo Paper option works well.

Suggested Paper. For best results use card stock. There are a variety of card stock choices available. Half-Fold paper is the size that Mirbit.com cards are formatted for (regular "letter size" paper). Most card stock comes with envelopes.

• Coated Card Stock Paper will give the best quality (package may read "Coated for Vivid Colour").
  
  
• Photo Paper - Regular 8.5 x 11 photo paper will also work (you will just have to create the fold yourself). Try the glossy photo paper - it will make your cards really stand out.
  
  
• Regular Paper - Don't have anything other than regular printer paper? That's ok. You can use regular 8.5 x 11 printer paper. Note: Compared to card stock and photo paper this option will not produce as good of quality & colour.
