🖨 Plug-and-play printing
Phantom is designed to work on every office printer with zero calibration. Cards are sized to fit safely inside the Letter (8.5″ × 11″) printable area on any printer — Toshiba, Ricoh, Konica, HP, Canon, Brother. The white border around each card is intentional and matches industry-standard prayer-card stock.
Stock recommendation
Use any 8-up perforated prayer-card stock that's designed for Letter (8.5″ × 11″). Avoid borderless stock that requires edge-to-edge printing — most office printers can't do borderless and it leads to alignment issues.
Print steps
- Click "Print-ready sheet (PDF)" to download the PDF to your computer.
- Open the file in Adobe Reader or Microsoft Edge (not Chrome's print preview).
- Set scaling to "Actual Size" / "100%." Never "Fit to printable area."
- Paper Size: Letter (8.5 × 11). Paper Source: Bypass Tray for perforated stock.
- Print. Cards should land in their slots with a small white border (intentional).
If you have custom 8.5″ × 10″ stock from Memorial Master
Memorial Master ships its own 8.5″ × 10″ borderless stock. Phantom doesn't print to that — it's a desktop-only paper size that browsers and PDF readers can't reliably target. Use up your existing MM stock with MM, and switch to standard Letter or Legal stock when you're ready to move to Phantom full-time.
🖼 Photo upload — what works best
- Phone photos auto-rotate based on EXIF data — no manual rotation needed.
- Crop modal opens after upload. Drag the crop box; aspect ratio is locked to fit the card layout.
- Old / blurry photos get auto-enhanced (levels + contrast + saturation + sharpen) on upload. AI restoration coming soon.
📄 Card sizes
- Buonfiglio (8-up) — 4.25″ × 2.5″ landscape on 8.5″ × 10″ perforated stock. 8 cards per sheet.
- Memorial (4-up) — 2.75″ × 4.25″ portrait on 8.5″ × 11″ Letter. 4 cards per sheet, traditional prayer-card layout.
