Introduction
Grenadine lets you print badges for your attendees, speakers, and anyone else who needs one at your event. Grenadine supports a variety of badge formats from different manufacturers. The most common badge size is an Avery 5392 Nametag Insert Refill which measures 3” x 4”.
Printing a badge within Grenadine Event Management Software does not require any special kind of printer. Our system generates a PDF which you can easily send to any printer.
Decide What Gets Printed On The Badge
You can include the following elements on your badges:
- The event name
- The event logo
- Cut marks (thin lines that help you determine where the label boundaries are)
- The attendee or person’s name (this information is the only mandatory information on the badge)
- The person’s organization or company
- The person’s title
- The city where the person is from
- The country where the person is from
- A professional photo of the person
- The ticket type(s) for the person
- The categories for the person (i.e. the categories that you have set on this person’s profile)
- The person’s registration number
- A scannable QR code (can be scanned by the event organizer using the check-in app, or by another attendee using the attendee mobile app)
Here’s an example of what a badge may look like:
Printing Badges
Printing badges can be done in a few easy steps. Grenadine gives you the option to print them from the Reports section of Grenadine Event Manager or the People section. Where you print badges from will not change how they look, the different printing options exist simply for your convenience.
Reports
Navigate to Grenadine Admin -> Your Event -> Reports -> Classic Reports and select the Badges report.
Quick Tips:
- Use the label type to select the size you would like your badge to be printed
- To select specific people, type their name(s) in the People field. To print all badges leave this section empty.
People
To print badges from People tables, select the people that need badges and click the Print Badge button.
Your people badges will be downloaded as a PDF from your browser. You can then print the badges from the PDF.
