Congratulations. I'm glad it paid off.

I dropped by to share my latex preamble. It gives cards about the
right width, easy enough to read, tiny margins, etc. Might save you
some hassle.

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\pagestyle{empty}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}

\usepackage[paperwidth=3in]{geometry}

\setlength{\parindent}{0em}

\begin{document}

\tiny

Cheers,
Joe
