Mirrored Printing for Swapcard Go Folded Badges
You can now print double-sided badges in the Swapcard Go 4x12 folded format with mirrored content — making badges easier to read and more professional-looking when worn.
Why Enable Mirrored Badges?
Improved Visibility
When attendees wear folded badges, one side often flips backward. With mirrored printing, names, companies, and roles stay visible from both sides, ensuring smoother networking and recognition.
Better attendee Experience
No more awkward badge flipping — attendees can focus on connections instead of constantly adjusting their badges.
Printer-Friendly
Mirrored badges work seamlessly with standard double-sided printers and foldable badge paper — no special tools or layouts needed
Consistency at Scale
This feature ensures uniform badge formatting without requiring manual design work or extra steps during production.
How to Use It
- Go to your event’s badge format settings in Studio.
- Select Swapcard Go 4x12 Folded.
- Toggle the setting for “Enable Mirrored Printing”.
- Generate and download the badge PDF.
How It Works
When you choose the Swapcard Go 4x12 Folded badge format, you’ll see a new option in Studio to "Enable Mirrored Printing (Double-Sided)".
If Mirrored Printing is Enabled:
- The generated PDF will include the same badge content on both halves of the page.
- The bottom half will be rotated 180 degrees, so it's correctly oriented when folded.
- Once printed and folded, both front and back sides of the badge will look identical.
If Disabled:
- The PDF will show the badge content on the top half only.
- The bottom half remains unaltered (empty).
Visual Output
The final badge PDF will include:
- Top Panel: Standard front-facing badge
- Bottom Panel: Same content, rotated for correct display when folded
