Creating text list labels
A classic example of variable text labels is name tags for attendees of a convention. A sample label might look like this one;
Hello! My name is
Jean Martin
Global Industries, Ltd.
The top line and the bottom line are the same for all labels. By listing the members’ names on a Text list, every label produced will contain a different name. The next label will print with the next name on your Text list, and so on.
