You've finally found that perfect card, and now you want to print it out. Well, that can get confusing - lucky for you, we've assembled some guides to help you get the best possible print!
The official Crisis Protocol cards are on cardstock that is about 250 GSM - this is a thickness that most printers will have no trouble printing at. If you're printing single-sided, we recommend around 100-150 GSM per side, so that the total thickness is close to 250 GSM.
We suggest a 'semi-gloss' paper to best match the official cards, but 'satin' finish works well too.
You can print our cards as single-sided or double-sided, depending on your preference and what your printer is capable of. Our images are provided much larger than necessary to ensure the best print quality, so you'll need to scale them down before printing, either in the print dialogue, or in another application.
Crisis Protocol cards should be scaled down so that they are 16.96cm wide (6.68"), and 10.97cm high (4.32"). Once printed, you'll want to trim the cards down using the included cutting lines on the cards.
Alternatively, you can simply scale the images down to 4 x 6 - these will be the right size to fit into a sleeve, but will include the 'bleed' area, meaning that if you trim the card, it will be slightly smaller than an official card.
If you'd like to print more than one card per sheet, we'd recommend putting the images into a photo editor or document editor (MS Word will do the trick), then scaling the images down to 4" x 6".
