"SOHO ( Small Office, Home Office ) Business Cards by Chronos is the new king of business card makers, more styles, more ready made to choose from, and will print on most any stationery available. And it won the Apple Design Award in 2004, pretty snazy for sure.
Yes, it's OS 10.2, G3 or higher, comes on 2 CDs, and will print very well on ink jet or laser printer. It comes with a PDF help file, you access in it's menu bar, that downloads, has good, easy to follow graphics, that guide you through creating cards, from ready made to completely custom, using it's clip art, graphics, and text placement.
I've used many card makers over the years, usually they're for young kids, maybe I'm older now... but SOHO Business Cards allows you to use it's 3,000 Pro ready made designs in 700 supported card stocks from manufacturers like Avery, Paper Direct, Idea Art, etc. It includes 50 bilstream fonts in PostScript format, 13,000 designer quality photos, vector clip art ( so it looks like you want it no matter how big or small you make it ), photos of objects. It works with Apple's OS X Address book so you can just input a name to use, that saved me much time. I used iPhoto albums of my own too.
So, let's say you want to create a card that's edgy, say double-sided, or a CD business card or folding, it'll do it. And then you want to make one for a look for a profession, it guides you to choose, say hair stylist or dog trainer ( 3 choices ), it shows you the preview, you can edit it all you want. Next step is to print it, that's it!
There are designs for 400 professions, designs by type, like Abstract, modern, logo, it just keeps going. It shows you your most recent choices so you can refer back easily. I like that. These are professional designs, so save yourself money, and look way beyond your graphic design skills with SOHO Business Cards by Chronos."
