CRITICAL: Print at exactly 100% scale. Do NOT select "Fit to Page" or "Shrink to Fit."
In your print dialog: Scale = 100% | Paper = Letter (8.5" × 11") | Margins = Default
For best results: Print on matte photo paper or heavy cardstock (not glossy — gloss causes reflections).
After printing, verify: Measure the 10mm scale bar with a ruler. It must be exactly 10mm. If not, adjust print scale.
Laminate the card for durability (matte lamination only, NOT glossy).
