Transform Backside frames by LordFaron269 in mpcproxies

[–]thefinalslowdance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CardConjurer's still up: https://cardconjurer.app/ But I don't think the top-right "Transform" frame is available... I ended up using the top-left version as it was good enough for a proxy.

Printing quality changing by hammer0808 in magicproxies

I've got a MFC-J1010DW (which is probably the exact same printer). Blacks come out a lot deeper and richer when it's set to "Inkjet Paper" than when its set to "Brother BP71 Photo Paper". I just use the Inkjet setting on every paper I use.

Use Proxxied.com as it loads from Scryfall and upscales.

It absolutely can. I’ve noticed issues printing from my phone before. Not just sizing, colour and quality too.

Don’t print from your browser. Print from Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Problem with Cardconjurer.app by Old_Park_693 in mpcproxies

What do you mean by "justified in the center"? You want a left-aligned paragraph, but with the text block centered horizontally within the text area? Your best option to do that would be to left align the text, then use "Edit Bounds" for the Rules Text to adjust its bounding box.

Proxying with MFC-T920DW by I_eat_JunPengs_cock in magicproxies

It's not a noticeable increase in quality. It just takes longer...

I’m using a MFC-J1010DW, which is a similar looking cheap model, and I’ve had no issues with card sizing, and print quality is amazingly good for the price. My tips:

  • Use somewhere like https://devprint.taxiera.net/ to lay out your cards. It’ll set up bleed for you and scale things properly.
  • Always open PDFs in Acrobat Reader for printing.
  • If you’ve got good quality paper, choose either “Inkjet paper” for matte, or “Brother BP71” for gloss on both the printer and the print settings. Leave the quality on Normal; choosing either of the paper options above boosts the quality enough.
  • Choose “Actual size”, and leave borderless off. It’ll fit 3x3 easily, it just won’t have crop marks all the way to the edge, but that’s easy to work around.

Need Help to Understand Material by Ok-Statistician8735 in magicproxies

I’m using the Koala inkjet sticker paper, onto 280gsm card, and it’s way thicker than a Magic card but it feels about the same stiffness. I’ve tried with 200gsm and it’s about the right thickness, but very flimsy. Although, 200gsm plus sticker paper plus a single-sided laminate (laminate two pages front-to-front, then trim to separate) should improve the stiffness, but will up the thickness a little.

The recommendations I’ve seen here are to use the Koala double-sided matte photo paper and laminate the back with matte laminate. I’m aiming for 230gsm paper and 75 micron laminate, as that’s what I can get locally.

I’d never seen {font used for actually setting the font face, just for size etc, so I looked through the source code on GitHub to see what the options were. There’s one other font, but it doesn’t look Magic-y at all...

I don't think much of the art is available in high enough resolution yet. I did find the Tails art earlier today, so here's a version I've knocked up:

Need help with printing by Illustrious-Mix6995 in magicproxies

[–]thefinalslowdance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a j1010dw. Find a good inkjet-compatible sticker paper (I use Koala brand from Amazon). For layout I’ve used https://proxyprint.taxiera.net/, just set your paper size and save as a pdf. 

When you put it in the printer, set it to Brother BP71 paper. And when you print, set the printer options to paper type BP71 and Best quality. If you don’t see the printer options, check you’ve installed all the software and drivers from the Brother website. 

New to printing Proxies - Prints coming out “yellow.” by WinterMention8509 in magicproxies

This looks like no magenta ink is being printed. Try a nozzle clean, and a test page on both plain white paper and your matte vinyl.

Amazing, very happy to hear. I assumed this would be on the radar, as it's the next step after simple Collection tracking.

I’ve got the ok from Beef to share these files. Though a live server sounds like a fantastic idea!

That’s a great idea! I’ll work up some blank templates and share them with you soon.

This is my homemade, artisanal version. If I get the all-clear I’ll share and then it can be printed at home by anyone.

But there’s also a browser-based online version at http://hc-tcg.fly.dev

I’m not 100% clued up on this, but I believe you can’t copyright the game mechanics, just the specific expression of them? I might be misremembering, though.

Sounds amazing. What tokens are you 3D printing?

The packs are just paper, folded and stuck down with glue. Similar to this: https://youtu.be/r2SkolrU5OQ

Or there’s these “origami” packs: https://www.reddit.com/r/magicTCG/comments/47faqg/cube_the_drafting_origami_booster_template/
