    I have a client who produces 200 catalogs a year. I designed a template and set up the files so that they could use the datamerge feature. There was a bit of a learning curve in getting it set up but it really paid off the end. Once the templates were completed all they had to do press a button and the template populates with the text and images.

    • of course they also have to prepare the CSV and images. We batch the images to speed up production.Josev
    • Exactly what I was thinking...Once they told me how they were doing it currently, I knew there had to be a better way...thanks!Crack_Junkie
    • The datamerge feature works pretty well, but there are some more robust plugins out there that you can purchase.Josev
