Can I create a batch of A6 info tags with different information and images?

[House of Music]

Hi everyone,

i don't know if it's possible to do the following, let alone how to search for a previous discussion.

I need hundreds of A6 infotags always with the exact same design. (Logo top right corner, big image in the middle and then 4 lines of features, price,etc...)

Is it possible to save me days of work and possible manual mistakes? Maybe I can feed Photoshop all the relevant information?

thanks in advance!

It's possible in Photoshop, but if you have got InDesign, it would be easier.

Photoshop (Image > Variables, also see the help file)

Short description:

Create a database *.txt file, first line the field names separated with tabs.

Then the data, also separated with tabs.

Save it.

Create your A6 file. For each field name create a text layer, layer name = field name.

Use menu Image > Variables > Define (top right)

Assign the layer to the exact name.(bottom)

Next window, import the database *. txt file. Do not click "apply" but click OK and save your file.

Batch: Menu File > Export > ... // You'll get hundreds of infotags as single files.

***************************

In InDesign you could use the Data Merge feature. The program can arrange 4 tags on 1 sheet of paper, ready for PDF / print.

Edit: For different images on the tags please read the help file, how to include the images as data.
