The best way is put the card and something hard under your mattress, place the hard thing above the card and then sleep on it. It would be compressed for more than about 7 hours.
If you want a fast result, roll it the other way, like what the other people said.

I have the exact same problem with my delivered newspaper every morning. The best thing I have found is to roll it in the other direction and hold it there for a few seconds. That probably won't flatten it all out. So you'll have to use the old phone books, bibles, encyclopedias and various other heavy books to try and flatten it fully.

Erm I would say roll it the opposite way, if you put a towel over it you should be able to iron it. Turn the steam off on your iron

roll it out, place a heavy weight on it, and leave it for a while
an A2 book, that would be interestin. A2 is 4 times larger than A4
