Well give it a try.  That smallest text might still be a little small. What does it look like with View -> Dot-for-dot off and zoom 100% Does it read OK ?  (another look at it and I think it is suitable)

One error in the overall submittal Wink The grey background layer (bg.png copy) should extend over the bleed margins (the blue area) At the moment it is the exact card size. The printer will cut the card to size after printing and that bleed is to allow for any small errors in cutting.  

Save as a Gimp .xcf  and also export as a png. Use the png image to make the PDF, that will avoid any unwanted information from text layers added to the PDF.

Another way is use an on-line conversion such as https://png2pdf.com/  free and makes good PDF's

As I used to say in NJ: "Close enough for Government work"

Thanks!  Your new suggestions (and all the others, btw) have made it possible for bringing my blood pressure back down. :}

I made the changes, looked at the dot-for-dot, even used the magnifying glass and it looks spiffy to my tired old eyes.  Just hope the printing company says the same.

Should I delete the template, or, does it matter?

Forgot to ask, is there a command to center everything?
