Can I provide variable data (like names or codes) via spreadsheet instead of a finished design file?

Yes. For variable data work, where each item carries a unique name, contact detail, or code, you can supply the changing content as a spreadsheet rather than building a separate file for every piece. It is handled as a special setup, so it starts with a conversation.

• Design outline: the base layout showing where the variable fields sit.
• Spreadsheet: one row per piece, with a clear column for each field that changes.
• Consistent formatting: keep names, numbers, and codes formatted the same way down each column.

Send the outline and spreadsheet to the estimates department. They will review the requirements and advise on the best way to merge the data into your print run.
