Mah Jong Cards version 1.4 Original by Gareth J M Saunders
Why Mah Jong Cards? While traditional Mah Jong tile sets are heavy, and therefore not the most portable, you can quite conceivably take a pack of Mah Jong cards anywhere. The Mah Jong Set This file contains enough cards to produce a full 144 card set, including seasons, flowers and an extra 8 jokers. Font Used I have used, in this version, the freely downloadable truetype font called Mahjong.ttf available from www.asahi-net.or.jp/~mn8y-kt/font/font.html Colour Scheme I have adopted the following colour scheme for cards, which keeps with the traditional association between the suits and dragons (with thanks to Tom Sloper): Bamboo Dots Characters Winds Dragons Seasons Jokers
— — — — — — —
Green Black Red Blue As Dragon Black Brown
Printing Use thick card. If the card image shows through the card you can print a disruptive backing image on the reverse side of the card before cutting. An appropriate image is available in PDF format on my website. To produce a full set of 144 cards please print pages 2-5 (Bamboos; Dots; Characters; Winds, Dragons and Jokers) four times each. You need only print the Seasons and Flowers once.
