MUL Custom Cards
« on: 27 April 2025, 11:11:22 »
When I use the MUL Custom Alpha Strike Card tool to create a custom Alpha Strike card, and I save the image of the card as a jpg, it always saves it as a very large, like 10" image.  I have to manually rescale it using GIMP, which costs image clarity.  Is there a way to save a custom card image as the correct card size?

Out of curiosity, why do you need them rescaled?

Usually when I need that, I'm using Word, and scale it in the document from there.  Of course, I'm also doing a bunch of other stuff, too, like adding SPA and FCA rule snippets and the like.

They have to be rescaled to print them.  If I save the image of the custom card and print it, it's like 8-10" wide.  So, it prints as a full page almost rather than card sleeve size.
