Variable file setup guidelines
Variable printing services are for items with the same basic layout but differing content in a multipage PDF, like table numbers or guest addresses. To order a product with variable printing, submit a print-ready, multi-page PDF. A flat fee is charged, and the order quantity is determined by the number of pages in your PDF. If the number of pages ordered is less than our minimum quantity, you will be billed for the minimum quantity and sent the quantity of cards ordered within your file.
Do not include blank pages within your variable file. Blank stock items must be ordered separately.
