Question

How do I personalize event badges with individual information?

Answer

Event badges are personalized through variable data printing, which merges a spreadsheet of unique details into a single badge template so every badge prints with its own name, title, or group.

  • Prepare a data file: put all the personalization details into an Excel (or CSV) file, one row per badge, with a column for each field such as name, company, or role.
  • Provide a template: supply a print-ready PDF that shows where each piece of data should sit on the badge, so the layout is clear.
  • Upload from the cart: attach the data file during checkout when you add the item to your cart.
  • Separate the variations: if different groups need different designs (for example, with crew and without crew), add a separate cart item for each design so each variation is printed correctly.

Double-check spelling and formatting in the spreadsheet before uploading, since the data prints exactly as it appears in the file.
