Printing a whole list instead

This tool makes one badge as an image, which is what you want for a social post, a slide, or a profile picture. If you are running an event and need forty of them, the bulk name tag generator takes a pasted list and lays it out on an Avery 5395 sheet at true size, with the print settings you need to keep it aligned.

What makes a name tag readable

  • The name should be the biggest thing on it. A badge is read from a few feet away, usually in a moment. Company names and job titles belong on the second line, smaller.
  • Use the name people actually use. "Kate" beats "Katherine M. Whitfield" on a badge — the long version shrinks to fit and gets harder to read.
  • Contrast beats decoration. Dark text on white reads at a distance; a busy background does not.

Questions

Can I print this one?

You can, but if you need more than one badge use the bulk name tag generator instead — it lays a whole list out on an Avery 5395 sheet at the right size. This tool makes a single image, which is better for sharing online or dropping into a slide.

What size is the badge?

It is drawn at 3⅜" × 2⅓", the shape of a standard Avery 5395 name badge, so a tag designed here matches what the bulk tool prints.

Why is the name not in handwriting?

Name tags get read from across a room, and a clean typeface is easier to read at a glance than a script one. Long names are also shrunk automatically so they stay on the badge instead of running off the edge.

Does what I type get sent anywhere?

No. The tool runs entirely in your browser and there is no server behind it. What you type stays in the page and disappears when you close the tab.

What would make this tool better? A device that's missing, a detail that looks wrong, an option you went looking for and didn't find — all of it is useful. Send a note.
