Questions
How is the box sized?
From the card size, the number of cards and how thick each card is (0.31 mm is typical for 300 gsm card stock). Sleeves add to the width and height. A millimetre of room is added each way so the deck slides in without forcing.
How do I make the box?
Print the PDF at 100% (“Actual size”) on card stock, cut along the solid line, score and fold along the dashed lines, then glue the narrow tab behind the far side panel. The lids tuck in at each end, and the notch in the front helps you slide the cards out.
Can I put my own art on the box?
Yes. Add an image for the front, back, sides, top and bottom, and pick a colour for the rest. Images are cropped to fill their panel. They never leave your computer: the box is made in your browser.
What paper sizes are supported?
US Letter, A4 and A3. A box for a standard 54-card deck fits on one sheet of Letter or A4; a bigger box is split over several pages with an assembly map.
What is the PNG for?
Painting the box in an image editor, or sending it to a print shop. It is the flat sheet at 300 DPI, with the cut and fold lines drawn on unless you turn them off.
