Creating a custom card on screen is only part of the process for users who eventually want a printable result. The latest MTGCardBuilder release addresses both stages, combining its online Magic The Gathering card editor with high resolution output and tools for arranging card images into printable sheets.
MTGCardBuilder currently advertises 1200 DPI output as part of its free card creation offering. That provides creators with a high resolution file option once they have finished assembling and editing a card. The platform also includes functionality for working with multiple card images and preparing printable card sheets.
The printing tools sit at the end of a more detailed creation process. Users can begin by choosing from the platform’s large selection of card frames and then modify the content and appearance of the design. Editable elements include the card title, power, rarity, borders, text and set symbol.
Artwork can be uploaded directly into the editor. From there, users can change its position and scale, adjust opacity and work with other visual properties so the image fits the intended layout before output is generated.
Text receives comparable attention. MTGCardBuilder provides font selection, font sizing, color and formatting controls, along with support for mana and other game related symbols. Those settings allow creators to make adjustments before committing a card to a high resolution image or including it on a printable sheet.
The platform’s output features are intended for custom creations and should not be read as a claim that the resulting cards are identical to official Magic The Gathering cards. MTGCardBuilder is a custom card creation and editing platform, and its printing functionality provides a way to take those user created designs from the browser into a print oriented format.
Projects can also be saved through the gallery for later editing. Existing gallery cards can be duplicated and modified, allowing creators to prepare variations before deciding which versions they want to output.
For users whose workflow moves from card concept to digital design and then toward printing, the current MTGCardBuilder release keeps those stages within the same online platform. The editor, high resolution output and card sheet tools are available through the official MTGCardBuilder website.
