  • InDesign data merge, multiple records per page

    Posted by Brandon Little on February 23, 2017 at 4:19 pm

    Hey guys!

    I’m doing a data merge where I’m pulling from a spreadsheet to add photos and contact info, but I’m having a hard time getting multiple records on the same page.

    I copied the merge field layout and it just pulls the same record again.

    This is even AFTER I go through the “Create Merged Document” button and tell it multiple records per page. What am I missing on setup here?

    Thanks in advance for any tips!

    OH!!!!! I fixed it.

    So simple – I was over-thinking it. You can only do ONE record on the page and then let the “Create Merged Document” function add the rest. I tried to set up the layout myself by copying the fields.
