Questions
The ones people ask most. There are more on the FAQ page, or email hello@jcard.studio.
Will it fit my cassette case?
Yes, if it's a standard clear cassette case (the hinged “Norelco” type most tapes come in). Cards print at 101.6 mm tall, with a 65.1 mm front, a 12.7 mm spine and a 25.4 mm flap.
Slimline cases, some older cases and card sleeves are different sizes, so measure those before you print.
What's free, and what do I get for £1.99?
Designing is free, and so is a watermarked PNG download, which is handy for a test print.
The £1.99 24-hour pass unlocks the print-ready PDF and a high-resolution PNG print sheet (325 dpi), with no watermark, 2 mm bleed and crop and fold marks. Download as many as you like for 24 hours. It's a one-off payment, not a subscription, so there's nothing to cancel. Payment is handled by Stripe, so we never see your card details.
How do I print it at the right size?
Print on A4 at “Actual size” or “100%”, never “Fit to page”, and with borderless printing off. Then measure the front panel: it should be 65.1 mm wide.
A test print on plain paper first saves your good card.
Do I need an account?
No. There's no sign-up and no email needed. Your design saves automatically in the browser you're using, on that device, and nothing you type or upload is sent to us.
If you clear your browser's data, the design goes with it.
What if something goes wrong with my download?
Email hello@jcard.studio with your receipt and tell us what happened. Most problems, such as a pass that's stopped working or a file that won't open, can be put right quickly.
The pass is digital and starts as soon as you pay, so it can't be cancelled once it's started. If the files are faulty and we can't fix them, we'll refund you. This doesn't affect your legal rights.
