Turn your own notes into flashcards you can print
Upload your slides, PDFs or notes and get a flashcard set built from your own material. Plus lets you export it as a PDF for the printer.
Printable flashcards made from your own material
Printed flashcards work best when they come from the exact slides or chapter you are studying, and a flashcard maker for printing can build that set from your files instead of a generic template.
- Cards follow your slides, chapter or notes, not a generic printing list.
- Free plan: 3 generations per month, study in the browser, no exports.
- Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month: unlimited generations and PDF export.
- Students get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.
Upload anything
PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text, notes or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition
Cards come back at the intervals your memory needs, so review time goes to what you are starting to forget.
PDF export on Plus
Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, so your set can go straight to the printer.
How it works

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for a printing history unit?
Aim for one card per term, person, process or date your instructor emphasizes. Split long chapters into smaller sets so each printed stack is easy to review in one sitting.
Is it better to recall printing processes from cards or to sketch them?
Recall helps most when the card asks you to explain a process in your own words, such as what happens to the ink at each step. Pair the printed cards with a quick sketch of the press or plate so you can check your answer against the diagram.
Can I print flashcards on the free plan?
The free plan lets you study in the browser, but exports are not included, so printing a PDF requires Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. Plus also includes unlimited generations.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card, and students get 40% off with a school email.
