Free 3×5 Index Card Maker
Your scenes, notes and ideas. Write, arrange and print — free, without signing up.
From your words to paper
Write a card, check the preview and download your PDF. Each card is 5 inches wide and 3 inches tall. Three cards fit on each A4 or US Letter sheet, with guides to cut them out.
How do I print at the right size?
Choose the same paper size here and in your printer settings. Print the PDF at 100% or Actual Size, with fit-to-page switched off. Measure one card before cutting: 5 × 3 inches (127 × 76.2 mm). Printer settings can change the size.
Can I make blank or ruled cards?
Yes. Leave the text empty and choose Plain or Ruled. Blank cards are valid output. Add as many as you need, up to 100 cards per deck.
What happens if my text is too long?
Your complete text stays in the editor. A card that does not fit is flagged, and its download is blocked. Edit your wording or move part to another card. We never shorten or shrink it for you.
Where is my work saved?
Only in this browser, on this device. Your wording is not uploaded. Save a deck backup to keep an editable copy, or open that backup on another device. A PDF or image is output; it cannot reopen as an editable deck.
Which characters can I print?
The current output supports Latin text, accents and common punctuation. Other scripts and emoji stay intact in your editor and backups, but their output is blocked until qualified. PDF text is rendered as an image rather than selectable text.
Is this a Word or Google Docs template?
This is a browser editor that creates printable PDFs. It does not require Word or Google Docs, and does not export those document formats. Images download at 1500 × 900 pixels.
