i-card hav speicifc format with a image

Do specify that format of that I-card. Manipulating only images is easily done in Java. Or you want to do something else?

You can either print it directly through the printing APIs: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/2d/printing/index.html

or use a report engine like the Pentaho Reporting Engine (formerly JFreeReport)
