Datamerge

Hallo,

Gebruik al enkele jaren de datamerge functie van indesign in combinatie met excel.

Nu ben ik bezig met de aanmaak van een nieuw etiket, en blijkt er toch iets niet snor te zitten.

Betreft wel een rond etiket.

Kunnen er 12 op één vel.

Diameter is 6 cm

Marges boven en onder zijn 13.5mm

Marge links en rechts zijn 9mm

Horizontale tussenruimte is 6mm

Verticale tussenruimte is 10mm

Indesign zet elk etiket op een aparte pagina.

Heb eventueel bestanden, maar zie niet goed hoe ik ze kan toevoegen.

You can add images  (screenshots)

to your post using the icon in the menu bar

A screenshot of your whole page before the merge (with frame edges showing) would be useful in helping you find the problem

Hier misschien nog enkele afbeeldingen.

Weet niet of het kan helpen.

Usually this is caused by other objects on the page that the Data Merge is trying to repeat; I don't see anything like that on your layout. 

If you could share the files with a Dropbox link (or with some other file sharing service), I or someone here could take a look.

I have found the problem - the layer KAP had items on it, and even though the visibility was turned off, Data Merge was trying to duplicate them.

Delete all of the extra circles, and also slightly reduce your page margins in the Merge Setup. When I ran the Merge with your numbers, the left and bottom rows did not get generated on the first page. You won't need to subtract as much as I did, just a small amount until it works.

THANKS a million times!!

That completely solved the problem.
