Keyboard card dimensions
« on: February 11, 2024, 03:00:45 pm »

My keyboard is missing its pull-out reference cards, so I plan to print some more. I just need a dimension to scale the images properly. Can someone here who has a set of cards get me the exact width at the longest point?

Thanks for this! Once I print them out I'll post the results here.

I made these PDFs using vectors from Rocky Bergen's excellent Lisa papercraft design. His vintage computer papercraft models are adorable, and of course he did that wonderful work on the opening titles to Before Macintosh. Anyway, one of these PDFs is in color, and the other is in monochrome for use with black and white printers. If printed out to 100% scale on a US-letter sized sheet of paper and cut out, they should fit correctly into a Lisa keyboard.

Cutting these out perfectly is pretty tedious. Anyone know if there's a service where I can get these professionally printed and cut-out?

Find a printer that can do die-cutting. Making the die will cost you something, likely more than the cost of printing these cards.
