What Fabricard can do
Paste a decklist, pick a precon, or grab a tournament deck. Download a print-ready A4 proxy PDF. Free, no account, no watermark. This page is the complete, factual inventory of what the tool does today - every claim on it is verified against the current build.
Elsewhere the workflow is: find the deck, export it, clean it up, paste it, fix the errors, print. Here it is: browse, pick your art, print.
Decklist input
Every common format
MTG Arena exports, Moxfield exports, Archidekt exports, plain text with quantities ("2x Sol Ring"), exact printings via set code and collector number, sideboard lines, section headers and comments. Headers like "Deck" or "Sideboard" are skipped silently, never reported as errors. Copyable examples live on the formats page.
URL import for Archidekt
Paste an Archidekt deck link and the list is fetched directly. Moxfield, MTGGoldfish and TopDeck block server requests with bot protection, so for those you export the list on their site and paste it as text - exact steps are on the formats page.
Double-faced cards and tokens
Transform and modal cards keep both faces. A deck's tokens and emblems can be added to the same PDF with one option.
Custom cards and backs
Upload your own card images straight into the sheet, and set a custom card back for the duplex run.
Art selection from every Scryfall printing
Variant picker
Click any card to browse all its printings with set, collector number, language, frame and image quality. Quality badges (MISSING, PLACEHOLDER, LOWRES) warn you before a bad scan reaches paper.
Image policy
A dropdown decides whether only high-resolution scans, any scan, or everything including placeholders may be used.
11 card languages
English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Korean and both Chinese scripts. Language resolution runs as a background pass: the preview stays usable while cards swap in place, and cards without a printing in your language keep English with a visible marker.
Printer calibration
Home printers are imprecise, so the calibration tools are first-class features, not afterthoughts.
Duplex alignment
Export fronts and backs as separate runs, then correct the physical offset your printer introduces. The duplex guide walks through the whole workflow including a test sheet.
Per-row back offsets
Each of the three card rows takes its own X and Y offset for the back side, because many printers drift more at the bottom of the page than at the top.
Color adjustments
Exposure, brightness, contrast, saturation and warmth per card - meant for print calibration, for example a printer that outputs too dark.
Edge darkening
Normalizes the outer black border of card images to a uniform black so cut edges look clean.
Saved front and back presets
Store your calibrated layout settings once and reload them for every future print run.
Bleed and cut guides
Bleed up to 3 mm extends the art past the trim line; cut guides with configurable color, length, width and offset mark exactly where to cut. Card gap is adjustable so sheets trim cleanly.
PDF quality in real numbers
Three export tiers: 300 DPI (Standard), 600 DPI (Best Print Quality, the default) and 900 DPI ("Maximum (for high-res uploads)"). The numbers below were measured on the reference deck (15 cards, 2 pages) on a desktop PC; your hardware will vary, the ratios will not.
- Export time with warm images: about 1.1 s at 300 DPI, 2.1 s at 600 DPI, 3.9 s at 900 DPI.
- A cold 600 DPI export (images not yet loaded) took 6.4 s; with the built-in page pre-renderer the same export finished in 0.15 s - roughly 40 times faster, because the pages were already rendered in the background while editing.
- File size: roughly 4.6 MB per page at 600 DPI and 8.1 MB per page at 900 DPI, which extrapolates to about 55 MB for a full 100-card Commander deck (12 pages) at the default tier.
- Loading the same deck twice transfers zero bytes from the network the second time - card data is cached locally for 24 hours and images are kept by your browser's cache.
- 900 DPI only adds real detail for custom-uploaded images sharper than Scryfall's roughly 745 px scans; for normal Scryfall cards, 600 DPI is the sweet spot for both inkjet and laser.
Performance work is ongoing and documented publicly - the changelog lists what changed and when.
Deck builder
Precon catalog
815 preconstructed decks (data through June 2026) with cover, mana curve, color and type breakdown, rarity, an estimated budget in EUR and format legality. Pick one and send the full list to the print preview.
Tournament decks
633 real tournament decklists from TopDeck.gg events, updated from recent events, grouped by popular commanders, sortable by wins and recency.
Custom decks
Build and save your own decks. Everything is stored in your browser and exports as a portable fabricard-profile.json - no account anywhere.
EDHREC suggestions
For Commander decks, see cards commonly played with your commander and add them in a couple of clicks.
Privacy by default
No account, no server-side storage: decks, settings and saved custom decks live in your browser only. The site is static and self-hosted. External requests go to Scryfall for card data and images, to EDHREC only when you open commander suggestions, and to TinyURL only when you click Short URL. Analytics (Google Analytics) loads only after explicit consent.
What players say
Nothing here yet, and that is deliberate: this section only ever shows real, verbatim feedback with permission - no invented quotes, no fake ratings. If Fabricard printed something for you, tell me about it: a line to bugs@fabricard.net or a post in the r/mtgproxies community reaches me. The most useful details: printed size accuracy, paper you used, and your printer model.
About this project
Fabricard is built and run by one person, a Magic player who got tired of clunky proxy workflows, and has been online in this form since 2025. Bugs get fixed and logged; bigger changes are tested before they ship and listed in the changelog. Your data lives in your browser, not on my server. The tool is free and stays free.
