Turn your own notes into printable flashcards
Stop hunting for generic templates. Upload a PDF, slides, notes, or a photo of a page and get flashcards you can print or open in Google Docs.
Why custom printable flashcards beat a generic template
A generic template has terms that may not match your course, so the printable flashcards you actually need start with your own material.
- Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text, or photos of pages
- Free plan: 3 generations per month, study in the browser
- Plus: PDF and DOCX export, unlimited generations, spaced repetition
- Students get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start
Printable PDF export

Built from your own material
Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain text, or photos of pages and get cards written from them.
Spaced repetition built in

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for supply and demand?
Start with 15 to 25 cards, each covering one term, graph, or shift. Add more after a week if you still miss key definitions.
What should a supply and demand flashcard show on the back?
Put the definition or the direction of the shift on the back, along with its cause. For example, a rise in consumer income shifts demand for a normal good to the right.
Can I print flashcards I make in DeckOwl?
Yes, on the Plus plan you can export to PDF for printing or to DOCX for editing in Google Docs. The free plan lets you study in the browser only, with 3 generations per month.
Does DeckOwl include a ready-made Google Docs template?
No. Instead of a fixed template, DeckOwl generates cards from your own material, so the content matches what you are studying.
