bifold index

This directory contains bifold card images. When printed on 8.5" x 11" card stock and folded, each produces an 8.5" x 5.5" card with an image on the front and a caption and credits on the back. I belatedly started keeping a list of card recipients in to_whom.txt.

I usually printed the cards I made between 12/03 and 12/10 via Windows Printing Wizard to HP PSC2210. The printer characteristics are wired-in to the card layout, as described in my old bifold card notes, so the layout needed to be altered for other printing setups. The old-format cards are preserved in tarball bifold_old.tgz.

In 1/11, I wrote programs to convert the old images. Shell script Extract extracts the image from a bifold card in the old format. bifold.csv contains additional data about each card (date, caption, etc.). Web page /lib/img/bifold.php generates a card automatically from an entry in bifold.csv. Unlike the earlier cards, now generated card images are 8.5" x 11". I can print them using OSX Gimp on HP D110a (no margin adjust, 8.5 x 11, 300 dpi) or HP 2210; other printer setups are untested as I write this.
