Tent or flat place cards
Choose tent cards for a folded name card that stands on the table. Choose flat cards for holders, napkins or an escort-card display. Both styles include cut marks; tent cards also include a fold guide and a name on both faces.
Print, cut and fold your place cards
Choose US Letter or A4 to match your paper. Print the PDF at 100% or Actual size. Cut along the corner marks with scissors or a paper trimmer. For tent cards, lightly score the dashed center line with a ruler and a blunt scoring tool, then fold and press the crease.
Tent cards measure about 3.89 inches wide by 1.53 inches high when folded. Flat cards measure 3.5 by 2 inches. A guest list of 12 uses four tent-card sheets or two flat-card sheets.
Paper and table-setting tips
Use cardstock that your printer supports, and check its paper-weight limit before feeding a sheet. Try the manual feed tray if your printer recommends it. Print a test on ordinary paper first.
White cardstock gives clear colors; cream paper softens the autumn designs. Tent cards stand on their own, while flat cards work in holders or on napkins.
