How to make your voucher look professional
Keep the main gift or value prominent, use one or two easy-to-read fonts, and leave enough space for the recipient’s name. Print at actual size after checking the preview. For digital gifting, save a PDF when available. A personal voucher is not automatically a legally enforceable commercial gift card; businesses should confirm applicable local rules about expiry and redemption.
