BusinessCards MX 4.6

BusinessCards MX is an advanced business card design software. When I say advanced, I mean you've got quite a variety of tools to use in order to create a truly professional business card.

I found this program quite amazing due to the fact that it can be used by beginners as well as by advanced users who wish to create state of the art business cards. In case you are lacking inspiration, you can choose a template and modify it in order to best reflect your business. There are 24 template categories containing dozens of templates you can customize.

In case you wish to create your own business card, there are a lot of tools and settings you can use in order to create appealing, professional cards. You can start from scratch and add a background image, add text, add shapes, add your company's logo, add images and so on. When it comes to the size of the card, you can choose one of the 26 standard formats (portrait and landscape) or you can create a custom format. The ruler can be set to measure the size in the metric system (cm) or the imperial system (inches).

When it comes to editing the card, there are lots of effects you can apply to the text, shapes and images. The images can be rendered transparent or opaque. You can preserve or change the aspect ration when resizing them to fit the card. There are nine effects you can apply plus brightness and contrast control. You can choose the text alignment and select custom colors. Text formatting is available as well as the option to add curved wavy or projective text. I've mentioned only some of the options that I found imperative to write about, but the list doesn't end here.

Pluses: An irresistible graphical user interface which makes it extremely easy to use. It has a large and very useful array of tools you can use.

Drawbacks / flaws:

In conclusion: I believe this is an exquisite business card design program, powerful enough to create top notch cards. Excellent!
