Step 5: Rotation of the card
For non-blank cards, the layout design must cope with either the contact chip or the magnetic
stripe or both on each side of the card. In the layout, these areas are usually left blank and the
Rotation-button allows the print to match the layout, i.e. to place the elements in the correct
positions as they were intended during layout creation.
Magnetic stripe:
The stripe can either be on the top or the bottom of the layout.
Contact chip:
The chip can either be on the left or the right side of the layout.
Important:
The rotation button will rotate the card, so both, the position of either chip or magnetic stripe will
rotate on both sides of the layout.
The following illustrations show some examples of magnetic stripe and chip cards and a
combination of both types and the effect of the rotate-button.
Note: The same applies for one-sided cards.
