Classic Paper Business Cards

Choose a smooth paper card around its contact information, photographs and handwriting needs. Agree the actual stock, weight, coating and artwork for both sides before ordering.

Smooth Paper: Readability and Repeat Orders

A smooth classic card is a useful reference when comparing paper options: check the same small text, photograph and QR code on each stock. Specify paper weight separately from thickness and confirm the actual sheet. Decide whether the reverse must accept handwriting before adding lamination or another finish; the word classic does not define coating or writing performance.

Test the longest employee name and role first so the shared layout works across the team.
Compare orientation and contact details on both sides of the Georgian and English versions.
Paper whiteness and coating influence the appearance of photographs and logos; use the same artwork for comparisons.
Test a pen on the actual writing area rather than adding lamination automatically.
Keep the stock reference, dimensions and approved file version for a repeat order.
State the quantity per employee; a total run does not imply equal quantities of every version.

Practical Uses

Appointment notes

Leave a writing area where needed and test the pen on the selected stock.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does paper weight mean thickness?

No. Gsm is mass per unit area. Thickness, stiffness and coating are separate properties; assess the actual sheet for holder fit and the desired feel.

When should lamination be included on a business card?

No. Choose it according to use. If the card must accept handwriting, test the selected surface and pen first instead of adding film or an effect automatically.

How should I organise employee versions?

Combine names, roles, contact details, languages and quantities per person in one list. Test the shared layout with the longest text and approve each version separately.

How should I assess photos and brand colours?

Compare the same artwork on the candidate stocks. A screen image does not replace colour approval; ask about physical sample availability and cost if needed.

What belongs in a quote request?

Specify finished size, candidate stock, printed sides, quantity per version and required receiving date. Agree minimum quantities, artwork work and delivery in the quotation.
