Why not just use a template?

A Word or Canva templateZavemate
Layout Copy each name in by hand, one badge at a time Every name is placed on A4 or A3 with cut lines and optional bleed
Long and bilingual names Long names are cut off or wrap, and you fix each one Names like “歐陽志明 Au Yeung Chi Ming” are sized to fit — or tick one box to put the Chinese and English on separate lines
Both sides Make and line up a back side yourself, or leave it blank Folded place cards print the name on both halves; two-sided badges still show it when they turn on the lanyard
Checking Mistakes are found after printing A free full-sheet proof at actual size, every time
List changes Edit the pages again by hand Edit names in the page and the whole sheet updates

The tool runs in your browser. Names, titles and companies are never uploaded — when you download final files, we only receive the number of names.

Common questions

What exactly do I get?

Print-ready PDFs made in your browser: a print sheet laid out on A4 or A3 at actual size and one PDF per person (zipped). You check a watermarked proof first. We don’t print or ship anything.

How much does it cost?

Free until 31 December 2026: each account can make final files for up to 300 names in total and save 3 designs. After that, credits are used when you download final files (1 credit = 1 name): credit packs from US$9, or Pro if you run events regularly. Every product costs the same.

Can it handle Chinese and English names?

Yes. The files use Noto Sans TC, an open-source font that covers Traditional Chinese and English. Long or bilingual names are sized to fit, and any name shrunk a lot is flagged for you to check. You can also put the Chinese and English parts of each name on separate lines with one tick in Adjust layout.

Can the name show on both sides?

Yes. Folded place cards print the name on both halves — this is on by default. For name badges, tick Two-sided badge: each badge prints twice on one strip, you fold it and slide it into the badge holder, and the name still shows when the badge turns around on its lanyard. No double-sided printing is needed, so the two sides always line up.

What list format do I need?

A CSV or Excel file (.xlsx or .xls) with a header row and one person per row — or type the names straight into the page. You choose which column is the name and which columns print; columns such as email can stay in the file and won’t print. If an Excel file has more than one sheet, choose the one with the names.

Is my name list uploaded?

No. The list is read and the PDFs are made inside your browser. We only record how many names you made final files for.
