hi everyone How to design a business card in illustrator !!! today I want to share with you the steps I took to design
his business card let's take a look okay
a book illustrator open someone thought by opening up in you
working documents from going to go to File new
and make sure you've got
inches for the whip
two inches with the height and point to five inches
print nyc for the bleed and click OK right so good I document open
I'm to minimize that we need to work on the front and backside of
the business card so we need to make a duplicate of this working area
some click here hold on old cutie click and drag
this going to be our front and it's gonna be
the back of the business card right so next we need to
bad a background complain to PP cure
and change foreground color to black
and then I'm going to
click on this rectangle tool and create a background
so I've got the documents in operating some gonna switch over to that
okay so we here in my document that I set up and you
so what do we do even when a switchover to the
works logo
and drag if you an image that I need
in my dsi so I thought of by dragging
a symbol next I added the name
the title the phone number and email address
so what I did is I moved over to the back of the business card design
and I started off with the background in black and then again I dragged
the symbol and then I also added
the QR code now when you scan this qr-code is going to
show you the web address of this company so let me show you how I got the
QR code okay I'm gonna go over to Firefox and type in Kerala
QR stop com and which one to use you own a type in your
you are all in their and you create QR code
he's generated in this preview automatically
so what if indeed it is I downloaded the QR code
and clicked and dragged its
into my Illustrator file okay so once I've got that
and the last thing I did bees hi added the logo
okay in this business card design we use to the rule of thirds
on the front of the business card so you can see
this symbol only takes up a third of the business card
and two-thirds he's left for days information
okay and then on the back of the business card we used this
symbol to director I to where the QR code is
okay so finally what we need to do
is we need to export this file
and have it ready for print so what I'm going to do that went to go to File
save as
and then select PDF
and click say alright already save this document storms will take replace
right so won't be here what I need to do is a need to click on
high-quality prints and then go to marks and
marks and leads and make sure look trademarks
is selected use document bleed settings
selected and then click safe PDF
this is the file you need to send over it
the printing company is ready okay so there you have it
