layout function. We'll show you how to setup multiple
items, such as badges, on one page with different names
on each badge.
1. Start by opening a new file and setting the plate
size to the equivalent of one badge. 3" x 1" in this
example.

3. For the variable name, go to the Text tool and select
the second option, the Text Compose tool (this tool
allows you to auto condense long names).
