Gaspare Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 In Publisher there is the data merge function, in Designer (recently purchased) I can't find it. Exists? Quote
Old Bruce Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 Designer does not have Data Merge.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
Gaspare Posted June 24, 2022 Author Posted June 24, 2022 Thanks for the reply. I wish it was added soon. Quote
Old Bruce Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 If you have Publisher as well as Designer you could do whatever work you want to do in Designer then open the file in Publisher and add the Data Merge fields and generate the final product. You may be able to use the Designer Persona in Publisher to achieve your goal. The file format for Designer will open fine in Publisher, they are essentially the same format, just different file extensions.
