Images, PDFs, and Proxxied

Quick Start: Import Deck and Customize on Proxxied

Visit proxxied.com to import your deck list and customize card art. When ready to export, use bleed edge as it takes minimal extra time and gives you more precise cutting.

You can also use that same list to continue with advanced workflows using Proxxied's export features.

Add cards and customize art on Proxxied

Import and Customize Your Deck:

1. Paste or import your deck list into Proxxied, or use MPCFill to get high-DPI images.
2. Click on any card to change its art to your preferred version.
3. Arrange your cards in the layout grid as desired.
4. Set your bleed edge preferences for clean cutting.

Configure Proxxied for Optimal Results

Proxxied offers flexible configuration options to ensure your proxy cards print perfectly. Here are the key settings to optimize:

• Set your preferred paper size and margins in the layout settings.
• Configure bleed edge settings — handy if your cuts aren't 100% precise or when printing double‑sided cards to avoid white edges.
• Enable cut markers for easier card separation.
• Consider setting 1px guide width for better visibility when cutting.

Printing

• When ready, click Export to PDF.
• Open the PDF in your preferred PDF viewer or printer software.
• Make sure to print at 100% scaling (no fit to page).
• Use the system print dialog to adjust any final settings.

Create a Two‑Sided Cards (Front/Back Alignment)

For manual duplex printing where you flip the paper yourself, build two PDFs (fronts then backs) with matching positions.

1. Create your FRONT sheet: import or place the first‑side images in any order (e.g., 1 → 9 across the 3×3 grid) and export a PDF.
2. Create your BACK sheet: add the second sides using the same row logic - you can simply drag them where you need them:
   • Row 1: (1 ↔ 3) and (2 ↔ 2) and (3 ↔ 1)
   • Row 2: (4 ↔ 6) and (5 ↔ 5) and (6 ↔ 4)
   • Row 3: (7 ↔ 9) and (8 ↔ 8) and (9 ↔ 7)
   This places the back of each card opposite its front after the page is flipped on the short edge.
3. Print the FRONT PDF, flip the stack consistently, then print the BACK PDF. Use identical margins, bleed, and scale on both prints.

Get High-DPI Images with MPCFill (Recommended)

For the best printing results with high-DPI images, we recommend using MPCFill.com Editor. This is the preferred method as it provides high-quality, print-ready card images and saves significant time compared to manually creating orders.

More Tools: Build PDFs and Trim Bleed

• print-proxy-prep— desktop utility to crop away bleed from card images (including Proxyshop renders) and assemble printable PDFs. Great for quick, at‑home jobs. See repo for setup.
• ProxyPrint (web)— online builder to arrange images into sheets and export a PDF.

Both tools complement Proxxied—use whichever fits your workflow for advanced layouts or custom card processing.

Create Custom Cards

Design fully custom cards with one of these tools:

• Proxyshop— best if you have Adobe Photoshop; generates high-quality, print-ready renders.
• Card Conjurer (self-hosted)— runs locally with Docker or a simple launcher.
