Create promo code Indesign / Excel

New Here ,
Mar 08, 2018 Mar 08, 2018

Hello,

I have a excel file with a list of promo code.

My objective is to create a 5X5mm Indesign document with a permanent layout but with a different promo code each time.

I'd like to insert the first line of my excel document (with my first promo code) in the right emplacement on my first Indesign page.

And then try to automate that process : for the second page : insert the second line of the excel file and so on.

Any idea ?

Thanks  !!

( I'm ok with a solution in French ! )

That is a perfect use of data merge. Look into that and come back if you have any questions.

Bob's right, this has data merge written all over it! One piece of advice to help you get started. You can't actually use the excel format as the data source, you'll need to save it as a .csv or tab-delimited file. Good luck!
