8. Business Card – Kartu Nama
Font size
Always make sure the business
card text is legible.
A good rule of thumb is to make
the company name and logo larger
than a 12pt font.
Never use any font sizes smaller
than 8pt.
9. Business Card – Kartu Nama
Outlining fonts
Always outline text that won’t be
edited (such as the company name
or slogan) and leave the text
editable for business card
information that changes regularly
(like a person’s name or contact
information).

Be wary of bleeds
A bleed is the part of your design
that runs over the trim edge—or
past the intended cut line—to
ensure a nice printing job. Always
stretch your design to the edge of
the bleed area.
Avoid adding borders, since they’ll
often look lopsided after printing.
Never include important
information past the trim line,
since it may be cut off during
printing.
17. Stationery Design
•Trim line: Where the printer cuts your image.
•Bleed area: The area beyond the trim line (typically an additional 0.125" on each side). You must
extend your design out to the bleed area so none of your design is cut off.
•Safety line: Inside the trim line (typically an additional 0.125" on each side). All important text and
imagery should be kept inside this line.
