    Hey Laney! I'm curious about the step after this. How do you print? I just got a Mac for Christmas and the options are so much different from what I am used to on a PC. I'm mainly referring to Print Preferences that I get on a PC like Media Type and Print Quality

      Hi! I have a PC too so I can’t guarantee it’ll all be the same but I have a Skillshare course on envelope printing. Settings can vary widely with equipment but it should help a little - skl.sh/2YZUyU2

    Is it possible to adjust a text to a bloc, I mean if I choose justify is it possible that Indesign resize automatically a texte into the bloc? Because I want the texte in a specific bloc size. Thank you ☀️

      No unfortunately this one is a feature we all want but isn’t available! I would recommend making your text box as big as possible to allow for the longest text.

    When I click on "Select Data Source", it gives me an error that says "The data source file you selected either has no records or is not a supported file format. Please fix the file, selected a file that contains records, or selected a supported file type." I created my list in Excel and it's very similar to the one you show, then saved it as a CSV file - what am I doing wrong?

    • @DesignbyLaney

      Sometimes it means that your file has a column with no heading? Or there could just be something off somewhere. I’d recommend copying your full sheet and “paste as values” in a new file!!! It’ll remove any weird formatting!

      @@DesignbyLaney thanks for your response. I was able to overcome it by copying into Google sheets and saving a CSV from there...
