› › HOW TO

Step 12: Now, for the last couple of bits to add: the Orlando

stamp downloaded from Adobe Stock, and a fun little line

at the bottom of the card. To add the Orlando graphic, you

guessed it, File>Place or click-and-drag it from the Libraries

panel onto Artboard 2 (you’re getting the hang of this now!).

Here, I resized the graphic, placed it in the top-right corner,

and rotated it to the right a tad.

Step 13: Lastly, let’s add a little line at the bottom in a dif-

ferent font, almost like you wrote on the card in pen. For

this, I’m using FF Market from Typekit. Now, the designer

in me has shouted in my head “Aaaaah, you’ve used three

different fonts; that’s too many,” but do you know what,

we’re making something fun here. I could change the front

font to my brand font, but I’m not concerned. I want the

card to make people remember me—this is for fun. I maybe

wouldn’t do this for a client, but that’s for another time.

I’m going to add, “That English chap who taught those

awesome InDesign classes.” Remember to use those very

words in your class feedback forms, folks. :-)

Step 14: And there you have it, a double-sided contact card

for Photoshop World. But now what do you do with it? You

need to save this as a PSD file in a safe place—your project

folder. But, we also want to be able to upload these files to an

online print com-

pany. To do this

is quite simple:

Just go to File>

Export> Art boards

to PDF. In the di-

alog, choose your

save location, en-

ter a File Name

Prefix, click the

Doc ument Per

Artboard radio

button under Op-

tions, and set

JPEG Quality to 12.

Then, click Run.
