Batch Print Name Badges from a Spreadsheet

Stop typing labels one by one. With OpenTemply, you can securely connect Google Sheets, Excel, or CSV files to batch generate name badges. Our intelligent mail merge automatically aligns your spreadsheet columns with your template text, barcodes, and QR codes, ensuring pixel-perfect results every time. Best of all, processing happens entirely on your device for maximum privacy.

Expert Tips

• Use High-Contrast Text: Ensure the text on your name badges is easily readable by using dark colors on light backgrounds.
• Incorporate Barcodes or QR Codes: Make your name badges interactive and scannable by dragging a code block into your template.
• Test Print a Single Page: Before batch printing hundreds of name badges, always print a single test sheet on plain paper to verify alignment.
• Utilize Custom Fonts: Choose from integrated Google Fonts to match your brand identity perfectly.
