What size are Silk Trading Cards?This product uses the standard 2.5" × 3.5" finished trading-card size in either vertical or horizontal orientation.
Can I print on both sides?Yes. Available printing includes Full Color Front Only, Full Color Front + Grayscale Back and Full Color Both Sides. Product-specific finishing may affect which combinations can be selected.
What makes Silk Trading Cards different?They use 16pt Silk Laminated cardstock with optional Spot UV Gloss, so the stock, surface, edge or specialty finish becomes part of the finished presentation rather than simply changing the printed image.
Which corner options are available?Choose square corners, four 1/8" rounded corners or four 1/4" rounded corners. Two-rounded-corner options are not displayed for this product.
Which template should I use?Use the 2.5" × 3.5" vertical or horizontal template that matches the selected square, 1/8" rounded or 1/4" rounded four-corner treatment.
