Updated

What this does: Downloads a printable name badge for a single attendee, such as a walk-in at check-in.

  3. In the window that opens, choose your options:

    • Document Generation Template: select the layout to print. The template decides which logos appear. See Choose a badge template.
    • Include Designations on Nametags: adds the contact's designations (credentials such as CAE).
    • Use Common Name on Nametags (if exists): prints the contact's common name (the name they go by) if it is on their record or was entered at registration.
    • File Format: select Pdf or Word document.

Choose a badge template

Pick the template that prints the logos you want. There is no separate logo setting.

Template Your organization's logo Attendee's photo
SingleAttendeeBadge - Both Logos (default) Yes, on the left Yes, on the right
SingleAttendeeBadge - Tenant Logo Only Yes No
SingleAttendeeBadge - Attendee Logo Only No Yes
SingleAttendeeBadge - No Logos No No
Where the logos come from: Your organization's logo is the one set for your GrowthZone account. The attendee's photo is the main image on the attendee's own contact record. If an attendee has no photo, that spot prints blank. It does not fall back to their company's logo.

Common pitfalls

  • Can't find the SingleAttendeeBadge template: It has been replaced. Pick SingleAttendeeBadge - Tenant Logo Only for the same layout with your logo.
  • Your own template prints the wrong logo: Check its merge fields. TenantLogo prints your organization's logo and AttendeeLogo prints the attendee's photo. See Create a Badge Template From Scratch.
  • Missing designations: Designations print only when Include Designations on Nametags is checked and the designations are already on the contact record.
