    PLEASE NOTE: We are aware of an issue where FedEx’s software causes the font and kerning (the amount of space in between letters) on our business cards to render illegibly when printed. To avoid this, we recommend calling your local FedEx store and asking if you can also email them the business card file in case of issues. This enables FedEx to have a backup file so your cards can be printed without delay.
