How it works

Three steps to a printed page

  1. Type one card per line. Put a dash between front and back, or leave the back off.

  2. Pick a card size: 4, 8 or 12 to a page.

  3. Print double-sided, flipping on the long edge, then cut along the dashed lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use alphabet flash cards?

Show the capital, ask for the letter name or sound, then flip to the lowercase. You can also spread them out and play matching.

How do I make flash cards with a front and back?

Type each card on its own line with a dash between the two sides, like "photosynthesis - how plants make food from light". Fronts print on one page and backs on the next, lined up for double-sided printing.

Can I make one-sided flash cards?

Yes. Leave out the dash and the back. If no card has a back, only front pages print.

How big are the flash cards?

On US Letter paper, large cards are about 4 by 5 inches, medium cards about 4 by 2.6 inches (close to an index card), and small ones about 2.6 by 2.6 inches.

How many flash cards can I make at once?

Up to 150, which is 13 pages of medium cards.
