Question
What file formats should I submit for bulk personalized projects like name lists?
Answer
For bulk personalized projects such as name lists, both Excel (.xlsx) and comma-separated (.csv) files are accepted. They hold the same kind of data, so use whichever is easier for you.
- Put each piece of data in its own column, for example First Name and Last Name.
- Give every column a clear header in the top row.
- Keep formatting consistent so names merge cleanly onto each piece.
- Remove blank rows and duplicates before you send the file.
