You don't want a busness card program, you want a graphics arts program.

You can layout a card in GIMP and save it as a hi-res TIF.  There are 
printers on the Net (VistaPrint* comes to mind) that will print quality 
full color cards inexpensively.

Saving as a TIF gets around font issues.  Fonts on one platform never 
match another platform exactly.  Using Scribus or Inkscape and exporting 
to a PDF should work too and will probably produce text better.  Ask 
your printer to do a test to see if things work out to your liking.

If you only need a small number of cards you can print them yourself.  
Print on a lustre inkjet photo paper for a higher quality look compared 
to the pre-perforated stock then cut with a good paper cutter.

*VistaPrint will even give you free cards, if you pick a standard design 
that promotes there printing services on the back.
