Frequently Asked Questions

How do I print and fold a greeting card?

Design your card, then click Download PDF. Print on standard letter or A4 paper. For half-fold cards, fold the paper in half twice along the dashed lines. For tent fold cards, fold once and stand it up like a tent. The PDF includes fold marks to guide you.

Can I use my own handwriting font?

Yes! Create a font from your handwriting with FontCrafter, then drag and drop the font file (.otf, .ttf, or .woff2) onto GreetingCrafter. Your handwriting font automatically applies to all card panels and appears in the font picker.

What size are the printed cards?

Half-fold cards are 5.5 x 4.25 inches when folded (quarter letter size). Tent fold cards are 5.5 x 8.5 inches (half letter). Both print on standard US Letter or A4 paper. Switch between paper sizes in the Design tab.

What's the difference between half-fold and tent fold?

Half-fold cards fold twice to create 4 panels: front, inside left, inside right, and back. This is the traditional greeting card format. Tent fold cards fold once and stand upright like a tent, with 2 panels: front and inside. Tent cards work great as table place cards or standing displays.

How do I customize decorations and borders?

Each panel has its own decoration style (confetti, hearts, stars, snowflakes, botanical, dots, or none) with a density slider from 0 to 120 elements. Choose from 12 border styles in the Design tab. Hit Shuffle (or press Space) to randomize everything, then fine-tune what you like. Ctrl+Z undoes the last shuffle.

Is GreetingCrafter really free? How does it compare to Canva or Adobe Express?

Completely free. No signup, no watermarks, no limits, no trial period. Everything runs in your browser with no data sent to any server. Unlike Canva or Adobe Express, there are no premium tiers or upsells. You can also use your own handwriting font, which no other free card maker supports. If you find it useful, you can support the creator through PayPal or Patreon.

Can I save my card and edit it later?

Yes. Go to the Export tab and click Save Design to download a JSON file with all your settings. To resume editing, click Load Design and select the file. Your text, fonts, colors, borders, decorations, and layout choices are all preserved.
