I won't have time to work on this project in the forseeable future. PR's are still welcome, so feel free to implement new awesome features!

FAQ

• What browsers are supported?
  • A modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari). The generator has some issues on IE.
• Cards are generated without icons and background colors, what's wrong?
  • Enable printing backround images in your browser print dialog
• I can't find an icon that I've seen on game-icons.net, where is it?
  • See the section "updating icons" below.
• The layout of the cards is broken (e.g., cards are placed outside the page), what's wrong?
  • Check your page size, card size, and cards/page settings. If you ask the generator to place 4x4 poker-sized cards on a A4 paper, they won't fit and they will overflow the page.
