About This Tool
Cassette Tape & VHS J-Card Printable Origami Layout designs calibrated cassette tape J-Cards and VHS slipcase inserts with exact fold lines, spine typography, and tracklist panels. It formats layout sheets to physical Norelco case dimensions and exports print-ready Letter PDFs.
### Standard Norelco Case Geometry and Panels The generator renders an unfolded cassette insert at 10 pixels per millimeter: - **Back Flap:** 15.0 mm width (houses Side A and Side B tracklist credits). - **Spine Panel:** 12.7 mm width (features rotated 90-degree spine title, artist name, record label, and catalog number). - **Front Cover:** 65.0 mm width (displays centered album artwork, title, artist, and release metadata). - **Total Unfolded Height:** 101.6 mm (standard 4-inch Norelco plastic box insert height). - **Cutting & Folding Guides:** Displays dashed interior crease guidelines alongside solid red exterior border cut lines with scissor markers.
### Customization and Export Controls - **Typography & Theme:** Customize artist, album title, release year, catalog ID, record label name, and accent color. - **Cover Image Upload:** Place custom cover art onto the front 65 × 101.6 mm panel. - **Tracklist Editor:** Enter individual track titles and song durations for Side A and Side B. - **Vector PDF Export:** Exports the calibrated template centered on standard 8.5 × 11 inch Letter paper using client-side pdf-lib for 1:1 scale printing without resizing distortions.
### Client-Side Privacy Note All canvas drawing, image handling, and PDF creation execute locally on your device using HTML5 canvas and pdf-lib. No album artwork, tracklists, or release details are transmitted to external servers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What physical dimensions does this J-Card template use?
It uses standard Norelco cassette case specifications: 65 mm front cover, 12.7 mm spine, and 15 mm back flap with an overall height of 101.6 mm.
How should I print the exported PDF for proper fitting?
Print the PDF on 8.5 × 11 inch Letter paper with your printer dialog set to "Actual Size" or 100% scale (disable "Fit to Page") so the fold creases match your cassette case precisely.
Are uploaded cover images or tracklists sent to a server?
No. Image embedding, canvas preview rendering, and PDF generation occur entirely within your local browser sandbox.
