Badge Layout & Size Configuration

• Go to the waffle and search for Document Templates or select the "Document Templates" Tab found on the EventSpark Onsite App

• Click New.

Select "Badge" and then click "Next"

Configure the Badge Setup and complete the Information, Page Origin and Size, and Print Area's sections.

Capture the general Information of your badge.

1. Start by giving your Badge a meaningful name under Document Template Name.

   1. Document Template Name: PVC Card Magnet Badge

2. Give your Badge a description that you will find easy to use and share with your team when choosing what Badge to use or work on in the future, you can update this after you have established what you want your badge to look like.

   1. Description: This badge is a single sided badge that will have a magnet stuck to the back of it after printing. The badge contains the Delegates First and Last Name on one line and Company on the next line.

3. Select what Type adn Format of Badge you will be using at your Event. Below is a table describing what each value means. In my example, however, it will be the Single Side Badge - 1-Side

   1. Type: Single Side Badge

   2. Format: 1-Side

Type	Format	Description	Example
Single Side Badge	1-Side	This badge Type and Format means that it will only be a single sided badge with Delegate Information only printed on the one side (face) of the badge
Foldable Badge	Horizontal Duplicate	This means that the badge will be folded horizontally over the Y-Axis (like a book) and the details of the Delegate will be duplicated on both sides (faces) of the badge. Only the Body (JSON) needs to be captured
	Vertical Duplicate	This means that the badge will be folded vertically over the X-Axis (like a notepad) and the details of the Delegate will be duplicated on both sides (faces) of the badge. Only the Body (JSON) needs to be captured
	Horizontal 2-Side	This means that the badge will be folded horizontaly over the Y-Axis and the details of the Delegate will be printed on only one side of the badge while the other side may contain completed different information, from no content to the Event Agenda, or even the Delegate details printed differently, in different positions, or with more or less detail than the other side. Both the Body (JSON) and the Body Back (JSON) needs to be captured. There is no rule on what needs to be on the front or back. This is entirely up to you.
	Vertical 2-Side	This means that the badge will be folded vertically over the X-Axis and the details of the Delegate will be printed on only one side of the badge while the other side may contain completed different information, from no content to the Event Agenda, or even the Delegate details printed differently, in different positions, or with more or less detail than the other side. Both the Body (JSON) and the Body Back (JSON) needs to be captured. There is no rule on what needs to be on the front or back. This is entirely up to you
Double Side Badge	Double Side	The Double Side Badge is a badge that prints different information on both the front and the back of the badge material. e.g. A PVC Card Printer that prints on the front and the back. Both the Body (JSON) and the Body Back (JSON) needs to be captured. There is no rule on what needs to be on the front or back. This is entirely up to you
	Duplicate Side	The Duplicate Side Badge is a badge that prints the same information on both the front and the back of the badge material. e.g. A PVC Card Printer that prints on the front and the back. Only the Body (JSON) needs to be captured

4. The Print Outlines option is primarily used to test your badge print on an A4 page for example. This will let you see if you got the layout correct on your specifically sized badge.

5. Set your Mode to Normal

   1. Mode = Debug can be set to Debug to help troubleshoot badge printing issues.

6. The default font family for this badge. Can be overridden in each section. NOTE: Only limited standard fonts are supported currently, please see EventSpark documentation for details

   1. e.g. Font Family (default) = Helvetica

7. The default font size for text on the badge. Can be overridden on each section.

   1. e.g. Font Size (default) = 12

8. The default font color for this badge. Can be overridden in each section.

   1. e.g. Font Color (default) = Black

Capture the Page Origin and Size.

1. Origin X - Enter the X axis position of the origin (top left corner) of the badge on the page

   1. Origin X = 0

2. Origin Y - Enter the Y axis position of the origin (top left corner) of the badge on the page

   1. Origin Y = 0

3. Height - Height of the badge. This is the height of the face of the badge in its final form. (i.e. only one face of the Foldable Badge Page - Vertical, not the total height of the page)

   1. Height = 0

4. Width - Width of the badge. This is the width of the face of the badge in its final form. (i.e. only one face of the Foldable Badge Page - Horizontal, not the total width of the page)

   1. Width = 0

5. Gutter - The distance (in mm) between the sides for 2-sided badges.

   1. Gutter = 0

Capture the Print Area - Front (this is necessary when using a Single Side or Duplicate Side Badge), and the Print Area - Back (this is only necessary if you are using a Double Sided Badge with different Front and Back information on the badge). The margins are the distance away from each edge. i.e. if Front Margin Top = 3, it means that the content will only start to print 3mm away from the top edge.

Set your front of badge margins and background color if not white.

1. Front Margin Top

2. Front Margin Bottom

3. Front Margin Left

4. Front Margin Right

5. Front Background Color

If necessary, set your back of badge margins and background color if not white

1. Back Margin Top

2. Back Margin Bottom

3. Back Margin Left

4. Back margin Right

5. Back Background Color
