I am putting together a form for a soccer team, where I have a number of players with their info put into a nice table for scouting college coaches to have at their fingertips. It would be nice to automate this, but I don't see how to merge say 8 players' info onto one page. Any thoughts?
View 5 RepliesWhen I do a data merge and select multi records it shift them way off the page. The only time it does the multi page correctly is when I use the default page size (8.5x11). This happens whether I preview it or export it with out the preview. Is there a patch coming out for this or asome setting I am missing? My CS5 did not have this issue.

Lots of Excel data - eg: 6685.excel example.tifcolumns x AZrows x 300 upwards
All rows required to create a book of running information.
If I use a label type approach some rows have less data making the layout uneven (unsuitable for the project)
Is there a way to merge with a fluid result ?
Ie row one takes up 2 lines Row 2 takes up 5 lines Row 3 takes up 1 line etc

Is it possible to do a multiple-records data merge that doesn't generate multiple text boxes? And if so, how?
For publications such as a directory with contact information, it would be easier to manage the layout by merging multiple records into one text box. However, it seems like the only option in InDesign is to merge the records into each of their own text boxes.
I have two questions about data merging....
1) I am going to consistently need to merge into a document that I will also set up with mulitple records with the same margins, spacing, etc. Is there a way to 'save' templates so I don't have to start over each time I create a multiple record layout??
2) If I want to merge in a single document, but have the same column 'name' laid out various time, do I keep inserting 'name' from the data source? How will it know to proceed to the next one on the list and not repeat the same one over and over?
I am creating an object that has four text boxes in an object that is about 2" x 4". When I do the merge, I end up with multiple pages, all 2" x 4". How can I now move those pages spaced about a larger page, say 11" x 17" so I can have positioned and print multiple 2" x 4" objects on the larger sheet?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhy cant I save a cdr job with all the merge fields setup so that next time I open the file I can go straight to 'merge to new document'.
So Ive set up a 10 to view raffle tickets job. Inserted 20 numerical merge fields, positioned, resized, applied font size color alignment etc etc etc.. Takes ages..... So then merge to a new document, works nice and I can save it fine.
There are a hundred reasons why i may have to close the 'master' merge file before the job has been successfully printed. It may be a repeat print job.
Any which way I really dont get why the live merge data fields are lost on closing the file.
I checked out the macro for the consecutive numbers by using the print merge option. I found out that using the print merge and merging it to a new document does exactly what I needed to do to be as efficient as possible, except if i need to number 120 labels, it opens up 120 pages on the document. How to merge the pages to have 1 page with all 120 labels. I know there is a way to put as many labels as possible on a page when using a regular printer, but I'm printing on viynil and theres a cut contour I need

Some background is that I have 16 different cad drawings that I have converted and edited in illustrator. I'd like to basically make a contact sheet with all 16 drawings so that they can be reviewed on one sheet of paper after printing. But each drawing is in it's own unique file, and I have not figured out how to put them all onto one page for printing.
I have variable text that I need to print using the Print Merge in CDX6. One field of text requires that the "kerning" be set at +30. No problem in my template. However, after I have create the print merge to a new file, the kerning is gone.
What I am missing that will force the text "kerning" or spacing as in the original?
A1 field name is FIRST NAME B1 is LAST NAME C1 is ADDRESS D1 is CITY E1 is STATE
F1 is ZIP H1 is name1 I1 is name 2 Fields H1 & I1 could not be inserted.
I entered the above field labels and loaded them with the saved Excel file saved as a CSV (Comma Delimited)
When the First names and last names appear in a document there is too big of a space between the first and last names. The same problem happens when I put city, state, and zip on the same line
in the document.
I did a concatenate combining A1 &B1 to eliminate the space problem and a concatenate to combine D!, E1, and f1 Fields on one line. I put the results of the concatenates in seperate columns H1 & I1 but these 2 column fields could not be inserted for the print merge.
How i can solve the space problem between first and last names and the problem to put city, state and zip on the same line with proper space and punctuation.

I saw that we can Print merge directly from xls files but I cant find that option in ODCB Data Source. Weird! because I have to do 1100 badjes with different merge fields like country, name, code etc... and if I start to make them by hand it will be forever!
First, I know how to use the base-print merge functions. Right now I have a job to complete with 1000 numbered 3part NCR forms.
I have never attempted this method (print merge), mainly due to my prior equipment limitations; however I am looking at realistically being able to print 100k+ page jobs without going to press/numbering machine (if only I could land about 10x 100k+ page jobs a month--press or no press--). Anyways, when I create this print merged file it takes easily 15 minutes to save (which might be understandable due to the number of pages to generate). BUT when I go to print, Draw closes. No error. No nothing.
When I use the print function in the print merge options, things lag extraordinarily. Also, I have to click on the various options many times for them to be registered. This option is like the prior--causing extremely unstable environments.
Auto numbering is a potential blessing, but this just isn't working for me. Also, is this a known issue? An upgrade to X6 might be prudent anyways; however, X4 is working fine for everything else.

since i upgraded to X6 i cannot do imposition anymore, using print merge.
Before i set a page with lets say A5 with the layout, and then in the print merge, i would put 4up (four A5), and it went well, using (collate and cut as well).
Now look at my attached file, the first page stays different size.
I just installed X6 64bits on my new Windows 7 64 bits machine, so far so good.

View 14 Replies View Relatedhow to create page setups for multiple printers in a network environment?
Here is the problem:
We have 2 offices with 3-7 printers per office and each printer with different capabilities (black and white, color, 11x17, wide format, etc.). I have CAD users who know little about setting up layouts so I want to create preconfigured layouts that they can import from a template via Design Center or other means.
I know I could set up a layout for each printer, page size, plot scale, and plot style table, but that gets to be so many layout permutations that it becomes overwhelming to manage and use. Up until now I had set up PC3 files for a few commonly used printers (wide format plotter, laser, pdf) and gave them generic names with the intent that I could simply direct the output to any printer by assigning it to one of the generic PC3 files. The problem I've encountered is that over time we've acquired new printers and old printers sometimes go offline or out of service and many of the printers have incompatible printable areas and page sizes to each other, so for example a page setup that calls for an 11x17 sheet for one printer does not have an equivalent size when a different printer is assigned to the layout.
Are we stuck with having to configure setups for each and every printer and permutation?

When I merge in the price field for an item I want it to show on the label with the cents in superscript as opposed to using a decimal and full sized cents text.

Keep in mind that I also have the price field in an envelope so that the price takes up the full size allotted on the label whether the price is $1.99 or $999.99.
I am 2 days into using X6 instead of X4 attached to my trotec engraver, using XP.All goes well with the print to the trotec job control, with it picking up the red vector cut line.
But if I print multiple pages, or use print merge (which is essentially the same thing), the cut line only prints as red on the first page. From then on the print line is some grey colour and consequently the laser does not pick it up.
Have tried changing colour conversion to the Trotec, but this doesn't have any effect.
