Recipe Card Maker Help
Table of Contents
Getting Started
The first step in creating your recipe cards is to select a size. Cards can either be 6″ by 4″, or 5″ by 3″. Two large cards or three small ones will fit on a single sheet of US letter.
If the lower checkbox is checked, the same recipe will appear on all cards. If not, a different recipe can be placed on each one.
Once a size is selected, click “Next Step” to move to the recipe entry screen.
Recipe entry
The recipe entry area is divided into two main sections:
1. Live preview
This area shows a preview of the current recipe card, and is updated as changes are made. Please note: the finished product may differ slightly from the preview, but can be checked before printing.
2. Recipe Entry
There are 4 tabs at the bottom of the page: appearance, recipe information, ingredients and directions.
Editing your recipe
The tabs at the bottom allow quick editing of any part of the recipe card.
Appearance
Use the appearance tab to select a background and layout for the recipe card.
Recipe Information
Enter the name of the recipe, along with the name of the person that created it.
Ingredients
Enter ingredients for the recipe. The toolbar can be used to insert special characters, such as 1/4 and 1/2 measurements.
Directions
Use the directions tab to enter instructions on how to make the recipe.
Printing your recipe
Once all details of the recipe have been entered, use the “next stage” button to move forward. This will either move to the next recipe, or the print preview screen.
At the print preview, clicking the link to the left will display a full size preview in a new window. If everything looks the way you want, just click the print command to create your new cards!
