How to print your place cards
- Paste the guest names, one per line. If you made your seating chart here, the names and tables are already filled in.
- Pick a style and a format: flat cards, ten to a page, or tent cards that fold and stand on the table.
- Print on card stock at 100% scale and cut along the dashed lines.
Common questions
What size is a place card?
The flat cards are 3.5 x 2 in on US Letter and 85 x 55 mm on A4, the size of a business card, so they also fit pre-cut business card sheets. Tent cards are the same width and fold down to that size.
What paper should I use?
Card stock between 200 and 300 g/m2 (80 to 110 lb cover). Thinner paper curls and a tent card will not stand up. Check that your printer takes that weight before you buy it.
Why do the cards print smaller than they should?
The print dialog is probably set to "fit to page". Choose 100% or "actual size" and the cards come out at the right size.
Can I put the table on each card?
Yes. Write it after a comma, for example Priya Shah, Table 3. Or build the plan in the seating chart maker first and the tables are added for you.
