Square Business Card Maker (65 × 65 mm)

Create square business cards at 65 × 65 mm. The format stands out in a stack of rectangles — enter your details, pick a layout, and print with cut marks.

Which binders this fits

A 65 × 65 mm square card is the most common way to look different without being impractical. It still fits most cardholders, which the larger square formats do not, and it photographs and scans cleanly. The trade-off is layout: a square gives you less horizontal room than a standard card, so long job titles and multi-line addresses get tight. Square cards work best with a centred layout and a short hierarchy — name, one line of role, one line of contact. Designers, photographers and studios are the usual users, for the obvious reason that the format itself signals the work.

Compatible label sheets

You can print on plain paper and cut along the marks, or use a pre-cut sheet made for this format:

No standard pre-cut sheetSquare cards are not a common pre-cut product. Print on 250 gsm card stock and cut along the marks — a trimmer is close to essential, since a square makes any angle error obvious.

How to print these labels

  1. 1Pick your paper format in the toolbar — A4 or US Letter. The label count per sheet updates automatically.
  2. 2Type your label text directly on the preview. Each label is edited in place, so what you see is what prints.
  3. 3Set the font, size and colour per label. Keep one convention across a shelf; mixed styles are far more obvious on a shelf than on screen.
  4. 4Print a test page on plain paper first and hold it against the binder to check the size before using cardstock or a label sheet.
  5. 5In the print dialog set scaling to 100% and turn off "fit to page", which silently shrinks the label by a few millimetres.
  6. 6Cut along the dashed marks. A trimmer gives a straighter edge than scissors, which shows once the label is on the spine.

Print on 250 gsm card stock and cut with a trimmer rather than scissors. On a square card, all four edges are compared against each other at a glance, so a cut that wanders by a millimetre is more visible than on a rectangular card.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do square business cards fit in a normal cardholder?
65 × 65 mm fits most cardholders and wallet slots, because it is narrower than the 85 mm width of a standard card. Larger squares such as 70 mm or 80 mm often do not.
What layout works best on a square card?
A centred layout with a short hierarchy. Squares have less horizontal room than standard cards, so long titles and full postal addresses tend to crowd.
