MTG Proxy Printing Templates: How to Set Up Your Print Files for Perfect Card Sizing

 Getting your MTG proxy print template wrong is genuinely annoying. You pick the cards, sort the files, get everything lined up, and then the printout lands slightly off

Here's how to avoid that entirely.

Why Card Sizing Matters More Than Most Players Think

A standard Magic: The Gathering card is 2.5 × 3.5 inches, or 63 × 88mm. Sleeves are built to that measurement. If your MTG proxy printing template is even a millimetre out, the card won't slide cleanly into a sleeve or sit flush beside real cards in a deck.

Precision here isn't a nice extra. It's the baseline.
