NoteDex is designed to enable you to create picture perfect index cards and flashcards - and then print them in a variety of formats. Please watch these videos to help you learn. The main point to remember is that you must Save as a PDF first, and then you can open and print the PDF generated.
There are many exports to PDF options to enable you to print your cards including Avery 5388 format.
Print a Stack of Cards
To print: a Stack of cards, open the Stack, then in the thumbnail view click the three '...' in the top menu. In the menu that appears move your mouse to the Save As icon and then select 'Save as PDF'.
You will then get these options:
Note: If printing to Avery, make sure to select 'Actual Size' in your print settings eg. in Windows:
For Stacks you also get other options, to save or copy all your cards as Text only, and save as Images (as a zip file) also.
Front and Back not aligning on Mac?
Also we have seen that if you are printing double sided on Apple, the cards can be mis-aligned - the left margin is not setting perfectly and the reverse cards are off by about 1/4". This happens if you are printing from Preview or Safari. However, if you download Google Chrome browser, and open the PDF using Chrome the issue does not occur. Yes, weird!
Export a Card a Image or Text
You can export a single card either as a PNG image, or export the text to a text file. Use the '...' menu in the top toolbar area. Note: You cannot export a single card as a PDF.
On Windows/Mac these files will be found in the Downloads folder.
On iOS your printout is found in a NoteDex folder in the 'On My Phone' location: use the Files app to find it.
Please note that you do not need to be a paid member to print. Print will work in the Trial also.
If you are seeing 'Save to Image' not 'Save to PDF' it means you are on the Card view and that is the option to save just that one card as an image. Go back one page to the card thumbnail view then click '...' menu to see the 'Save to PDF" option - that will save many Cards in one PDF view.
We sometimes get asked if you can print 4x6 4"x6" 5x8 5"x8" sizes. Our flashcards are designed in 3x5 format. But if you are willing to have a little bit of distortion you should be able to print cards to 4x6 paper (if you have 4x6 index cards). Again, when printing to individual cards choose the one side per page landscape print selection. We hope these tips help you to print to 3 x 5 index cards. Remember not all printers support that paper size, so you might need to use our Avery 5388 format to print 3 cards on a page.
