Hi
I'm designing a board game, so I need maaaaaany cards. I prefer to design them in InDesign, but balancing stats needs constant correction. Doing it manually takes too much time and I feel exhausted after every such session.
I have a summary table in Excel, but when I drop it in InDesign it results in the whole chart appear on the page. What I need however is to link each cell to a corresponding text element on the card. How do I do that? Is it possible?
I tried to do it with XML but it was 1) complex 2) lacked of flexibility 3) outputs text as paragraph, not as separate parameters.
Hi,
maybe you should try Indesign's Data Merge feature
