To appear professional it's pretty essential to have a business card,
but some of the cards I see don't really look that great. In fact, some
of them practically have "Don't do business with me" stamped
across them. BusinessCard Composer gives you the ability to design your
own business cards, and helps make sure they don't look like they came
out of a train-station vending machine.
The process is simple, using a wizard to guide you through the steps.
First choose from over a hundred business card designs, next fill in your
details (or choose from OS X's Address Book). All you need to do then
is choose the type of paper to print to. There are lots of pre-cut business-card
papers available, and most if not all are listed. Print the cards on the
A4 sheets, pop them out. and hey-presto! you have a professional-looking
business card. If you don't like the way you card looks there are plenty
of tools to tweak it, or make you own from scratch. But the semi-automatic
process turns out pretty good results without resorting to your artistic
skills.
Macworld's buying advice
If you're in the habit of running out of cards, this is a great solution.
Use it with your ink-jet or colour-laser, and you'll get results to rival
any print shop. Jim Rockford would have loved it.
