Batch data merge in a PDF

[defaultgbvvmvh874eb]

Hi all, 

Hoping someone here has the answer I'm after. I need to produce nearly 2000 leaflets, design is identical however there's a unique code on each. I'm trying to figure out how best to create these? Is there a way in Acrobat that I'm missing?

Data merge in InDesign would most likely crash my Mac as the leaflet is quite design heavy, and it would require nearly 2000 pages within the one doc.

Do you have a data sheet with all the codes, or do you want them to be generated automatically (either random, or sequential)? Do you have a text field in the file where you want the codes to be inserted?

Thanks @try67. I will have all of the codes available in either a .CSV or .TXT file. I can create a text field where the codes are to be placed. 

I'm creating the 2 page leaflet in InDesign, but wondered if there's a smarter way to deal with it in Acrobat given the amount or leaflets required.

In that case then yes, you can do it using a script, like this (paid-for) one I've created:

The output can be a single file with all the merged documents in it (for printing purposes) or individual files, in case you need to send them out to the recipients. In the latter case, if you have a field in your data file with the email address, my tool can even do the sending automatically for you!

Great! Thanks @try67 appreciate your help.
