How to Crop and Print Your UDID (Swavlamban) Card

The Unique Disability ID (UDID) project, implemented by the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (DEPwD), Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, creates a national database for Persons with Disabilities (PwDs). The card serves as universal proof of disability across India, eliminating the need to carry cumbersome multi-page medical certificates.

When you download your UDID e-card from the Swavlamban portal, the PDF contains two cards arranged vertically — the top portion shows the back side (with QR code and medical authority details) and the bottom portion shows the front side (with cardholder photo, disability type, and percentage).

ID Makers automatically separates the two vertically stacked cards, rotates and crops them to the exact international CR80 PVC card standard (85.6mm × 54.0mm), and arranges them side-by-side with cutting guides on a 300 DPI A4 print canvas.

Cyber Cafe & CSC Printing Masterclass for UDID Cards

Follow these tested methods to provide durable, waterproof cards for Divyangjan citizens:

  • Method 1: Heavyweight Glossy Paper + 350 Micron Pouch Lamination:
    Print the A4 layout on 250+ GSM Glossy Photo Paper at 100% scale. Cut along the borders, place inside a heavy 300–350 micron ID pouch, and pass through a heated pouch laminator at 125°C. This creates a sturdy, weather-proof card that lasts for years.
  • Method 2: PVC Sticker Sheet Lamination (Core PVC):
    Print on inkjet PVC sticker paper, peel and stick to a 0.5mm blank PVC core sheet, then heat-laminate. This creates a rigid card indistinguishable from an ATM card.
  • Method 3: Direct Thermal PVC Card Printers:
    Download the individual Front PNG and Back PNG from ID Makers for direct import into Zebra, Fargo, or Evolis card printing software at exact 1011 × 638 px resolution.

Troubleshooting Common UDID Card Printing Issues

  • Swavlamban Single Page vs Multi-Page Certificates: The official UDID portal generates two documents: a full medical assessment disability certificate (1–2 pages) and a compact e-UDID card. Ensure you upload the e-UDID Card PDF (which contains the front and back card templates on one sheet) rather than the clinical assessment certificate.
  • Scannable Railway Concession QR Code: Ticket examiners at railway stations scan the back QR code to authenticate concessional travel. If the QR code appears faint or broken, clean your inkjet printhead nozzles and print at High Quality (300 DPI) on photo paper rather than plain copy paper.
  • Printer Scale Warning: When sending your A4 layout to print, select "Actual Size" or 100% in the print dialog. Selecting "Fit to Page" reduces the physical card dimensions below the standard 85.6mm CR80 format, preventing it from fitting standard lamination pouches.

Frequently Asked Questions About UDID Card Printing

Common questions answered regarding Swavlamban Card formatting and concessions.

How do I crop my UDID card PDF for printing?

Upload your official UDID card PDF from swavlambancard.gov.in. The tool automatically detects the split point between the two vertically stacked cards, crops them to standard 85.6mm × 54mm dimensions, and arranges them on an A4 print layout at 300 DPI.

Where can I download my original UDID Swavlamban Card?

Citizens can download their official e-UDID card from the official Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities portal: swavlambancard.gov.in by entering their enrollment number or UDID number.

Is my disability and medical data kept confidential?

Yes. No sensitive demographic data or disability records are ever permanently stored. Documents are transmitted securely via TLS 1.3 to an isolated, non-networked processing sandbox (-dSAFER -dNONETWORKACCESS) for precision rasterization, and temporary files are permanently purged within one hour via automated server cleanup.

Why does the official UDID PDF place the cards vertically?

The standard government PDF template generated by the Swavlamban portal places the Back Card (with QR code) on top and the Front Card (with photo) below it. ID Makers automatically separates these sections and places them side-by-side with an easy fold/cut alignment guide.

Is this tool completely free to use?

Yes. ID Makers provides 100% free, unlimited document formatting for Divyangjan citizens, cyber cafes, and CSC centres with no sign-up and no watermarks.
