ID Card Maker — Free Staff & Student ID Cards (CR80)
Schools, academies and small offices need IDs that look official without a design department. This maker works at the true CR80 ratio so any card printer or print shop produces a perfect fit.
Click a block to select it, drag to move, drag its bottom-right corner to resize. Layers: use Send backward / Bring forward.
How to use the ID Card Maker
- Pick a size and a starter template — every template is fully editable, nothing is locked.
- Click any text, shape or photo block to edit it: drag to move, drag the corner to resize, restyle in the editor below the canvas.
- Add your own photo blocks and background, arrange layers with Send backward / Bring forward.
- Download the PNG at the exact size you picked, or use Print / Save as PDF for paper copies.
How it works
CR80 at 300 DPI is 1013 × 638 px — the exact file card printers expect. Upload the portrait photo into the photo block; keep the name and ID number large, as they are read at arm’s length. This page runs on Loona’s shared canvas editor: your design is a stack of text, shape and photo blocks rendered at the exact pixel size chosen, so exports are print- and platform-ready. Blocks are clamped inside the canvas and layers can be reordered. Everything happens in your browser — photos are never uploaded.
Worked example
A small academy issues forty student IDs from this design in one afternoon — photo, name, class, ID number — printed at the local shop for the price of laminating.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is CR80?
The standard ID card size — 85.6 × 54 mm, the same as a bank card. Portrait and landscape versions are both included.
How do I print many cards?
Design one card per person (edit name, photo, ID), export each PNG, and let your print shop impose them on sheets — or print at 100% scale on card stock and cut to the CR80 guide.
Can I add a QR or barcode?
Generate one free in Loona QR Codes / the Barcode Generator and place it with + Add photo block.
Is personal data safe?
Yes — photos and details never leave your browser. That matters most for ID cards.
