Automate text in ID Cards
Submitted by Jaime Montaño on Tue, 2006-01-24 07:25.
I Need to do a lot of Id cards, u know, the ones used in big events by the staff, personal, etc. But they are almost 150 people involved here!! Of course, there is just one design, but I need to imput all the names manualy? There's no way to just use a list or fill some spaces and let a pretty good app do this for me? I use photoshop and Illustrator, and I'm learning In Design, but I dunno what to do.

It seems a little bit tricky for a InDesign starter but I'll try it, Thanks!
