Uno Cards Print Pdf

I am looking at adding gift cards to my online store. We have a great printer that we use for greetings cards so I was planning to print our own gift certificates to ship to customers. I can't seem to find the right information online on how I would do this.
Do I just set up gift cards as normal and when a customer purchases one, I pack and ship it to that address?
The customer can check the balance of the gift card by using the link provided in the gift card email. If the customer doesn't have an account set up with you, you can check the balance from Shopify admin > Products > Gift cards > Customer's gift card number.
Would recommend you to use Giftkart which has a widget for users logging in your website and check account balance. Happy to setup the entire flow for you.
You could certainly copy the gift card's code and add that to a gift card template that you want to physically ship to the customer. Please note that once the card has been created you will not be able to view the full code as gift cards are treated as currency, and that you would likely need to create the gift card template outside of Shopify (unless you just wanted to print out the email that is sent to customers when the gift card is issued).

Yes, correct. Please note that you will need to issue the gift card manually in order to be able to view the code in question, as once it is created you will only be able to view the last four digits of the gift card code. If you're only intending to mail these gift cards physically, I'd recommend not using the gift card feature when listing the gift card as a product as that will automatically issue the customer a gift card at the point of fulfillment without you being able to see the code.

I am building a Print and Play game, but so far I am not satisfied with the cards I was able to make. I tried printing them on thin paper and mounting on poker cards, and printing them on thicker paper. However both of these methods make the cards pretty much unfit for shuffling, since the paper goes off while shuffling. I saw that the game "Twilight Imperium" printed their cards on thin plastic. Is it possible to buy something like that and print directly onto the material?
You could use common card protectors like people use to protect cards from trading cards games (Magic, etc). What your stuff in there (printed cardboard, paper-glued-on-other-cards,...) then becomes pretty much irrelevant.
While one can't riffle-shuffle well, laminating 110# (110 pound) cardstock with Con-Tac brand vinyl does allow for hanafuda style shuffling, and works quite well. The resultant cards are tough, easily handled in play, and durable. (I did this for playtesting the Freemarket RPG.)
On an ink jet, the issue varies by type of ink. Inks intended to be absorbed (often alcohol based) take some time to dry, and often, won't absorb into one side of a sheet of cardstock. Print a sheet, and set it aside, then print next. Wax-based inks usually leave a texture; they break off in shuffling, and are unsuitable for anything other than laminated or sleeved use.
ETA:I mis-read the question and thought that the OP was looking for commercial sites, when they actually were specifically not doing so. With that in mind, please look at my response to this question. Blank playing cards are not a perfect solution to the question (Difficult to print on directly. You would need to print on paper and paste it to the cards.) but the results would have the right weight/feel/ease of shuffling and would look nicer than doing the same with a standard deck of cards. Also, such products are commonly available at craft stores. Hope this helps.
I am having the same trouble.I have purchase 20 packs of plane backed playing cards with the idea of running them through my Canon printer. Alas the ink from the printer does not adhere to the plastic coating on the card. The only ink that I can recommend to stick to the plastic coating is a Nikko Oil Marker 1700 texter pen that you can buy on ebay about $7.00. The only problem then is that you have to carefully write on each individual card by hand. The only other alternative I fear is to get the cards professionally printed at great expense. Goodluck.
Playing cards are springy because the laminated layers are intensionally cross grained. That's why they shuffle so well, not because of the coatings. Doesn't matter how you coat or protect standard cardstock; it will never behave like professional cards.beam022 is right about the quality of that tutorial, and there are a few others that discuss how to get that cross grained strength and flexibility. It appears to be a real trick to get them right and still be reasonably thin. I completely respect the craftspeople who spin their own yarn, weave their own fabrics, and all sorts of other basic material. I admire the dedication and skill it requires. In all seriousness, if you start laminating your own cardstock, you might as well look into making your own paper so you can control that all important grain. If there were any other way to achieve the same results with standard paperstock (even laminated) then the specialized companies that produce gaming cardstock for casinos and collectable card games would have been out of business a LONG time ago.There used to be someone out there who was selling the real stuff trimmed to 11x8.5. That's what I was trying to re-locate when I noticed this discussion. I had come across a site years ago where the person had bought a truck load (as in a literal trailer truck) because the manufacturers don't sell it in smaller quantities. I was never sure if it was sold in rolls or sheets, but if it's sheets you can be sure they're pallet sized or larger. They're meant for professional printing presses which print entire decks on single pages with room to spare for the trimming and finishing processes. Anyway, the person was selling packs of 20 pages (11x8.5). I can't remember the exact price, but I think it was around $10 a pack.Blank cards will generally be coated like poker cards and won't print well, but they're well suited to permanent marker (think flash cards or a one-of-a-kind, lovingly crafted, hand-drawn deck).Hope everyone finds this informative and maybe even useful.(Yeah!!

and most importantly, will give me a simple, straight-forward, realistic uploading process. (UPrint's process is exactly what I am looking for, they just don't print backs. I've already printed several of my bookmarks from them, and Iove the results. The preview looks exactly like the finished product, unlike VistaPrint's preview, which was extraordinarily innacurate.)
I print mine myself. I took a look at your cards, and they don't appear to be graphic heavy. I think it would work. I don't know if you need large quantities of them at one time. If not, the price of printer ink (print on high-quality) and the paper is worth it.
the only problem is that my printer always prints the card off center, too far to the left. I've tried everything I can think of and the only possible way to get the result I need is to pre-adjust the card in Photoshop, purposely skewing it to the right. Unfortunately this only works on rare occasions, and more often than not, I end up wasting at least 4 pieces of cardstock, not including the ink and my time.
Before 2023, I used to be able to print lists of my board via the Agile Cards - Print Your Board power-up for Trello. I have tried to print from old boards and new boards created since the start of the year and it doesn't load any pdfs/images after selecting my printing template(s). I find myself having to refresh my Trello app and even on the web browser it does the same thing and I have to refresh the page for the board to "work again".
Okay, this whole 'getting ghosted by a powerup' thing has affected my business as it has a bunch of other people. I've found a dirty work-around that solves it for me fairly well insofar as being able to print a bunch of cards on their own, individual sheets/labels. One good thing about the level of jank in my workaround is that it's flexible and can like be applied to any application you all have so I'll share the broad strokes.
You'll need Microsoft Office (Namely Word and Excel). I'm not sure if it can make made to work in Google Docs and Sheets because I'm not as familiar with those because I'm old.
The steps you need to do get all the cards you want to print information from into a dedicated list and then export the board to a .csv file. Open that in Excel, format as a table, and delete any rows (the whole row, not just clearing the contents) that you don't want to print. If you want the dates exported from Trello to be formatted correctly in Excel you'll need to Find and Replace with "T**:**:**.***Z" in the Find field, leave the Replace field blank, and hit Replace All. Save and exit.
Open up Word, and start making a template. Choose the page layout/size you want and get that all set up beforehand. I've had success laying these out these on Letter, Avery Arrayed Labels by fiddling with the page size and the pages per sheet printing settings, as well as various sizes of Dymo labels. Once you have that all sorted, go to the Mailings tab and pick Select Recipients and browse to the .csv file you saved in the previous paragraph. Then pick Insert Merge Field and select the Header name that has the information you want to be printed. Repeat as needed until all the information you want is formatted how you want it and save the template. You can hit Preview Results yo ensure everything is pulling through how you want.
Save this template in this state for future use. To print another batch, just point it to a new .csv file with Select Recipients again.
To print, it's a little weird if you've never used any of this before. Instead of going to File and Print like normal, you want to choose Finish and Merge in the Mailings tab. You get a special printing dialog that gives a few extra options to help cater to this sort job. How you pick through it depends on what exactly you're going for but you're well passed the hard part.
Like I said before, there's a ton of jank but this is way faster when you need to print a collection of distinct cards than copy/pasting the relevant info a ton of times.
