                                                ID Solutions ID Card Builder

                                                ID Solutions ID Card Builder - Basic and Advanced Tabs

                                                ID Card Builder

                                                Start with an artwork check, then move into the basic step-by-step ID card builder. Advanced options are kept separate so the main builder stays simple.

                                                Start Here - Artwork Check

                                                This artwork and layout tool is only a guide. It helps the customer show us a layout they like, but it is not final artwork. We still need to check everything and can send back a proof for approval if they wish to go ahead.
                                                Background Check lets you prepare a card background and download a reduced JPG for later if required. Photo Check lets you crop a photo to the correct shape, reduce it, and add it straight into the Basic Builder. The logo checker is there to help you see whether a logo looks clean before you continue.

                                                Background Check

                                                1. Choose card orientation

                                                Upload a background image, then move and zoom it while the dotted card outline stays fixed. This helps check whether the artwork has the right proportions before building the card.

                                                2. Upload background image

                                                No background image uploaded yet.

                                                3. Crop when ready

                                                The crop uses only what appears inside the dotted card outline. Download the reduced JPG and keep it for later if required. Portrait output is 638 x 1013 px. Landscape output is 1013 x 638 px. The file is automatically compressed to help keep it under about 2 MB.

                                                Logo check

                                                Light card previewLogo on light card
                                                Dark card previewLogo on dark card
                                                A good logo should look sharp and have little empty space around it.
                                                If the background or logo still looks wrong here, it is usually better to fix it outside the builder first, then upload the cleaned-up artwork.

                                                Photo Check

                                                1. Upload photo

                                                The dotted box keeps a fixed 300 x 375 photo ratio with square corners. Move and zoom the image until it looks right, then preview it or add it to the Basic Builder.

                                                2. Adjust photo

                                                No photo uploaded yet.

                                                3. Use when ready

                                                The photo crop uses only what appears inside the dotted box. Output is 300 x 375 px and it is automatically reduced to a small JPG. If you want a round photo later, choose the round option in the Basic Builder after adding the prepared photo.
                                                If the photo still looks poor here, it is usually better to replace or edit it outside the builder first.

                                                Step 1 - Choose Layout

                                                Choose a portrait or landscape starting layout. Start Here is there to help check artwork before building the card.

                                                Portrait Card

                                                Good for standard staff ID cards with a strong photo area and simple text layout.

                                                 
                                                 
                                                 
                                                 

                                                Landscape Card

                                                The same card size turned sideways. Useful when the name needs to read clearly from a distance.

                                                 
                                                 
                                                 
                                                 
                                                The master card ratio is 638 x 1013 px. Landscape uses 1013 x 638 px, so it is exactly the portrait card rotated.

                                                Logo Upload

                                                You can also drag the logo on the card. Use the small round handle to resize it.

                                                Photo Upload

                                                Drag the photo box on the card to move it. The bottom-right resize handle keeps the selected photo shape locked. Rectangle stays at 300 x 375 proportions with square corners. Round stays as a true circle. For round photos, zoom starts at 1.0 so the circle stays filled. Use zoom first, then crop X/Y to line the face up inside the circle.

                                                Basic Text Fields

                                                Canvas text + drag test: this version draws the live preview text on a canvas layer, so Zeald should not be able to override the font size or colour. Edit the basic text that appears on the front of the card. Each field can be dragged on the preview, resized by width, aligned, set to regular, bold, or italic, coloured using 8 simple dot choices in a 4 by 2 layout, or removed from the layout.

                                                First Name

                                                Last Name

                                                Title

                                                Field 4

                                                Live Card Preview

                                                The preview uses the same portrait ratio and simply rotates the proportions for landscape.

                                                Complete the required details below, then send the customer layout guide to ID Solutions. This is not final print-ready artwork. We will still check the design, image quality, sizing, and production details.

                                                Required: customer name, email address, and deadline date. Sends the proof and layout data to Website Uploads.

                                                Advanced Options

                                                This area is intentionally separate from the Basic Builder. The basic builder stays clean for normal photo ID card layouts. Advanced tools can be added here later for jobs that need extra production detail.

                                                Rear sideBuild a second side for return instructions, emergency notes, cardholder rules, or organisation details.

                                                Artwork and proofingAdd more colour options, extra fonts, proof notes, and production checks.
                                                My recommendation: keep this Advanced Options tab visible as a future pathway. Start Here helps with artwork checking, while the Basic Builder stays simple and the more technical items still stay separate.
