For Cards with 2 Pages of Messages

Want a sleek double-sided print that looks great folded in half? Here’s how to prep your file and print it at Staples (recommended) or FedEx.

Step 1: Prepare Your PDF

Open your card’s PDF
(Tip: On a Mac, Preview works great.)
Insert a blank page
Go to: Edit > Insert > Blank Page
Reorder the pages
Make sure the blank page is first, followed by the front cover, and then the two message pages.
Print setup
- Go to File > Print
- Change paper size to 11" x 17"
- Under the “Layout” section, change Pages per Sheet from 1 to 2
- Go to the PDF dropdown (bottom-left corner) and select Save as PDF

Option A: Print at Staples

Go to Staples.com
Navigate to:
Shop Print and Marketing > Document Printing > Simple Print
Click Start Project and upload your file
Set:
- Paper size to 11x17 Ledger (landscape)
- Double-Sided printing
- Print "Head to head"
- Paper White Cardstock 110lb Index
You’re good to go!

Option B: Print at FedEx

Go to FedEx.com
Navigate to:
Business & Marketing Essentials > Copies
Upload your newly saved PDF
Change:
- Paper size to 11x17
- Print style from Single-Sided to Double-Sided
- In the requests section, write "Print head to head". This will ensure the inside of your card will not be printed upside down.
- Paper weight Cardstock

That’s it! 🎉

For Cards with 3 or More Pages of Messages

For cards with more than 2 page of messages, we recommend Staples. If your GroupTogether card has more than 2 pages of messages, the best option is to print it as a booklet. This will be staple bound. Here’s how.

For this option, upload your file in single pages in reading order, i.e. don't use the double page spread with rearranged order as instructed for the cards with 2 pages of messages.

Option A: Print a Booklet at Staples

Go to Staples.com
Navigate to:
Shop Products > Booklets
Click Start Project and upload your GroupTogether PDF
Select 8.5” x 11” booklet size
Select Paper weight, recommended: 80# Gloss Cover
Preview to make sure everything looks just right
📌 Note: Booklets require a minimum of 8 pages, and total pages must be a multiple of 4. If your card is shorter, you may want to add some blank pages, or reorganize the number of columns in your card to reduce or add pages, in your GroupTogether card editor.

Option B: Print at FedEx

If you prefer FedEx, there is a coil-bound booklet that you can use. Here’s what to do:

Go to FedEx.com
Navigate to:
Copies & Custom Documents
Upload your file and select double-sided printing on standard paper size (8.5”x11”)
Choose "Coil" for binding type.
