Basics

An important thing for working with MyDataMerge is to understand how to prepare your layout for different situations. The following properties of your layout will change the available options in MyDataMerge:

• Number of pages
• The amount of placeholders
• Duplicates of placeholders
• Integration of placeholders in text frames (stand alone or with other text)
• Available styles (text, paragraph and object styles)
• Available PDF presets

Learn how to prepare your layout for different situations:

• Export one record per layout (page count doesn’t matter)
• Export multiple records per page with existing layout (page count doesn’t matter)
• Export multiple records per page – layout has to be generated (one page layout required)
• Export all records in one text frame (inline merge, one page layout required)
