# FactoryCards

> A free browser tool for making fixed-layout 100 × 50 mm bin and rack cards with Code 128 or QR, manually or from CSV.

Canonical site: https://cards.smartfact.ai/

Create location cards, keep display text separate from the encoded value, choose Code 128 or QR, and review the exact PDF before downloading. Import UTF-8 CSV, choose copies, save a portable project and export a sample of expected scan values for ScannerBench.

The current alpha supports only bin/rack cards on 100 × 50 mm stock, one card per PDF page, at 203 or 300 DPI. It is not an inventory system, replenishment workflow or general label designer. A4/Letter sheets and other card types are not implemented. Physical printer/scanner qualification remains outstanding.

Entered records, imported CSV and projects are processed locally in browser memory. No accounts, uploads, analytics or automatic persistent storage are used. Download a project to keep editable work; reloading loses unsaved changes. Hosting may log ordinary asset requests. The app loads its own renderer assets; it is not an installed offline app.
