yotocard.sty

Prerequisites

You need to have LaTeX installed. If you don't, it's game-over.

Example code

In a latex document, include the package yotocard and then make cards using the command \yotocard{path-to-card}. You can create numbered cards using yotocardwithnumber{path-to-card}{number}. You can create blank spaces that are the size of a card using \emptycardspace. If you want to do something spicy, like add custom text, use \yotocardwithcustomnode{path-to-card}{custom-node}.

% example.tex
\documentclass[a4paper,landscape]{article}
\usepackage{yotocard}
\usepackage[margin=1cm]{geometry}
\pagenumbering{gobble}

\begin{document}
    \yotocard{examples/unicornwithmic.jpg}
    \emptycardspace
    \yotocard{examples/rabbit.jpg}
    \emptycardspace \\
    \yotocard[black]{examples/unicornwithmic.jpg}
    \yotocardwithnumber[red]{examples/rabbit.jpg}{5}
    \yotocardwithnumber[blue]{}{6a}
    \yotocardwithcustomnode[red]{}{\node[
        anchor=south,
        text width=0.9*\cardwidth cm,
        inner sep=2mm
        ] at (0.5*\cardwidth,0)
          {\Huge Example node with custom text};
    }
\end{document}

You should be able to create the example file by running: pdflatex example.tex and you should end up with something that looks like this:

Recommended use case

This is what I do, but you should do what you feel :-)

• print the pdfs onto a sheet of self-adhesive vinyl inkjet paper;
• to protect the printed surface, stick a second layer of the vinyl paper over the printed layer
• cut the cards out
• stick them to a make your own yoto card (one side of the card is completely white)

Future work and bugs

• Add support for fixing to card width instead of height
