  • Looking for software to populate variables with data inside an InDesign document

    Posted by David Dartnell on September 19, 2013 at 2:17 am

    Hi Everyone,

    When designing my next products catalogue for work I want to include a “place holder” variable for each product, and at the time that I “assemble” the InDesign document into a PDF I want to populate the variable with prices. Ideally I would like to draw the prices directly from our business software (SAP Business One) using a database connection. However if a direct connection to our database (Microsoft SQL) isn’t possible then I would like to draw the data from an XML document.

    If anybody has any suggestions regarding good software to achieve my outcomes they will be greatly appreciated.

    Kind Regards,

    David
