I used 140gsm paper on a color laser printer - printed them in a 3x3 layout on DIN A4.
3x3 might be a bit too small and the black font on dark-green background a hint too dark to read in dimm light - but I'll give it a try! works with normal lights and a 2x3 grid should fix both things \^__^/
took 10 minutes to cut
and thanks to the bleed no loss of anything due to misalignment from printing duplex :3
edit:
Looking at the picture by g0milkese, I've just realized that I probably misunderstood how I should cut these - so I just cut along the lines instead of the imaginary area inside the bleed.
Sorry for breaking your carefully crafted layout :/ Works for me though! I'm happy for any dice I can replace with physical stuff :]
They look sweet. I've seen others cut them in all sorts of ways, no hard feelings on however you choose to crop them. Someone in the Discord server added a thick white border to the edges too just so they could get as much of the art as possible printed out. Still looks great. The bleed is serving its purpose.
These look great, I do see the PDF being only a single page right now so you might want to check that (I used Adobe PDF reader, Google Chrome, and a previewer built into the file browser I use). I can at least use the PNG files right in my Obsidian notebook right now though.
I actually just ordered a printed set of the cards using the PNG files. I used MakePlayingCards.com. I'll post some pictures when I get them as long as they come out nice.
Here's how they came out. They look pretty damn good I think. I got them printed on standard linen cards with a glossy print, with a tin to store them in.
The company did message me to make sure the back was oriented correctly. As pictured here you would flip on the long edge.
Total cost was about $23 shipped. Like 1/2 of that was shipping. But they came out great.

Thanks so much for pointing that out. That's completely unintentional. I'll get that sorted right away and update the zip folder. My mistake.

That would be so cool to see! Hope they print out well.
