Instructions for Using Our 1-Sided Templates

We have created one-sided business card templates in six graphic applications. Just type in your own data and you are good to go. The applications are:

• Adobe Illustrator
• Adobe InDesign
• Adobe Photoshop
• Corel Draw
• Corel PhotoPaint
• Microsoft Publisher

To begin using the templates follow the steps below. These are the basic instructions that will work for all of our templates and all of the different graphic applications.

Step #1 - Download the Template

Download the template that you will be using from our template page.

Step #2 - Open the Template

Open the template in your graphic application (I used Adobe Illustrator). On the File Menu > Open> Choose the template from your hard drive.

Step #3 - Download Fonts

If you don't already have the specific fonts used in the template, you will have to download them from our template page. To use the Fonts in the template, download and save the font files in your Fonts folder. On the Start Menu > Open the Control Panel. Select the Fonts Folder.

Step #4 - Add Fonts

Open the Fonts Folder. Select then Copy the downloaded Fonts and Paste them into your Fonts Folder.

Step #5 - Unlock Type

Open the Layers Panel at the Left Side Bar. Unlock the Type Layer, to modify the text.

Step #6 - Select Text

Select the Type Tool then highlight the selected Text using the mouse.

Step #7 - Edit Text

Type in your own data to customize the template.

Once you fill in your own data and complete your business card design, you can then print with your home printer, take the design to a local printer, or upload the design to an online print shop for professional printing.
