GMS KTC ( Knowledge Trading Cards )

GMS KTC creates premium educational trading cards designed to turn knowledge into something you can explore, learn from, collect and display.

Each card combines a powerful visual front with a structured educational back, covering subjects across technology, science, education, nature, history and other areas of real-world knowledge.

Explore • Learn • Collect

Visual knowledge. Physical learning. Collectible experiences.

GMS KTC is the evolution of GMS Card Forge, transforming the original card-development concept into a standardized Knowledge Trading Card system built for repeatable series, collections and real-world learning.

QUESTION 4 — What Printable Formats Can I Use?

QUESTION 5 — Can I Print GMS KTC as Trading Cards?

Yes.

The 2.5 × 3.5-inch format is the recommended standard for physical GMS KTC trading cards.

Your Cards, Your Collection

Printed cards can be:

  • Placed in trading-card sleeves

  • Stored in collectible binders and card cases

  • Displayed individually or as complete collections

  • Used for learning, research and educational activities

  • Shared and discussed with friends, classmates and colleagues

  • Collected across multiple GMS KTC series

Official Standard Format

2.5 × 3.5 inches / 63.5 × 88.9 mm

The Large KTC format is also supported at 3 × 4.2 inches / 76.2 × 106.7 mm. Both sizes use the same canonical artwork, scaled proportionally.

How Do I Print Them?

Use the included GMS KTC Standard Printing Guide for guidance on card sizes, printing options, paper selection, alignment and cutting.

You can print at home or consult a local professional printing vendor. If you prefer ready-printed cards delivered to you, GMS can discuss this as a separate service, subject to availability and a separate quotation.

Front + Back = One Complete Knowledge Trading Card.

QUESTION 6 — How Do I Use the Cards After Printing?

COLLECT

Build complete themed collections and series.

LEARN

Explore facts, explanations, comparisons and scientific concepts on the card backs.

TEACH

Use cards as supplementary educational resources and discussion materials.

DISPLAY

Show individual cards, selected favourites or complete collections.

EXPLORE

Use cards as prompts for quizzes, identification activities, discussions and subject exploration.

ARCHIVE

Store cards in sleeves, binders, boxes or other collection systems.

One card can become part of a much larger learning collection.

QUESTION 7 — Can I Print GMS KTC Cards Smaller?

Our recommendation is to keep the official card sizes.

GMS KTC supports two official formats, using the same canonical artwork scaled proportionally.

Official Standard Format

2.5 × 3.5 inches
63.5 × 88.9 mm

The primary format offers the intended balance of visual impact, educational detail and comfortable reading.

Official Large KTC Format

3 × 4.2 inches
76.2 × 106.7 mm

The larger format provides additional physical space for viewing and reading while preserving the same design proportions.

Why Size Matters

The backs of GMS KTC cards contain educational explanations, facts, examples and supporting information. Reducing the physical size can make this content harder to read, even when the artwork remains visually clear.

One Design. Two Official Sizes.

Both formats use the same canonical front and back artwork. No separate design is required for the Large KTC format.

For the intended GMS KTC experience, we recommend choosing one of these two official sizes rather than creating smaller custom formats.

Choose your size for readability. Keep the knowledge intact.

QUESTION 8 — How Do I Professionally Print My GMS KTC Cards?

GMS KTC cards can be printed at home or produced through a professional printing service. If you prefer printed cards delivered to you, GMS can discuss this as a separate service with separate costing, subject to availability.

Professional Printing Workflow

1. Choose your GMS KTC collection

Select the series you want to produce.

2. Use the supplied production artwork

Use the high-resolution, matching front-and-back artwork provided with your product.

3. Choose an official card size

Standard Pocket Card: 2.5 × 3.5 inches (63.5 × 88.9 mm)

Large KTC Card: 3 × 4.2 inches (76.2 × 106.7 mm)

Both formats use the same canonical artwork, scaled proportionally.

4. Choose a commercial printer

You can approach:

  • Local commercial printers

  • Digital printing companies

  • Professional card manufacturers

  • Online card-printing services

  • Custom trading-card manufacturers

  • Commercial print houses

5. Explain your production requirements

For example: double-sided, full-colour cards using the supplied front-and-back artwork, with appropriate alignment, trimming and the selected official dimensions.

Printers may specify requirements for bleed, colour profiles, file formats, safe margins and finishing. Follow the chosen printer's technical specifications.

6. Choose the available finish

Depending on the printer, options may include:

  • Matte or gloss finish

  • Lamination or protective coating

  • Suitable cardstock weight

  • Rounded corners

Confirm the available options and their costs directly with the printer.

7. Request a physical proof

Before ordering a larger quantity, review a physical sample for colour, readability, front-and-back alignment, trimming and overall quality.

Print carefully. Check the proof. Build your collection.
