Printing PDFs at Home

choose "File" then "Print".
(5) Print Screen Settings:
Copies:
However many you need
Paper Sizing & Handling:
"Size"
Size Options: "Actual Size"
(If you do not choose "Actual Size" here, Adobe will default to printing the cards at full sheet size, stretching it and not only making it huge, but making it also lose quality)
Orientation: Auto portrait/landscape
From Your Printer Properties, Choose "Borderless Printing" for best results
(6) Click "Print"
(7) If you have a back side file to print, simply flip and follow the instructions above to print the back side file on the back of your invitation.
(8) Once your file has printed, trim away the excess while areas - and you're done! The printable is now ready for sending, framing - whatever your heart desires!
Please Note: If the file you have purchased is designed to be printed at 8.5"x11", it is best to choose "Borderless" printing to make sure that the dimenions print as intended.
Printing JPGs at Home
- Home Printing Help -
If printing anywhere but at home, we recommend calling your printer ahead of time to find out their preference. But here's a quick guide that works in most situations! :)
(Please note that we are not responsible if you do not call your printer before purchase and end up needing the opposite file format after purchase. This will be an additional fee, so we highly recommend calling your printer!)
- If you're planning on either printing at home or sending to an online printer, or printing as a photo (not recommended, as the paper is thinner and the gloss can affect the design color) your best option is to choose JPG.
- If you're planning to send to a local printer for printing, your best option is PDF.
(1) Download the printable file(s) to your desktop.
(2) Right click on the downloaded downloaded file and choose "Print".
(3) Your settings should be as follows:

Uncheck 'Fit Picture To Frame'.

Unless You have a Printer Capable of These Sizes
(4) Unless otherwise specified above, change the number of copies to
however many you need to print.
For those with quantities specified above, remember to set quantities with those multiples in mind
(i.e., if you need 20 response cards, which will print 4 to a page,
you would choose "20" for your quantity and it would print 5 sheets of 4 each)
NOTE: I recommend printing in batches of no more than 10 sheets for quality control)
