Frequently asked questions

How do I make printable name tags at home?

Open a name tag template in our editor, type your organization name and adjust the colors, then export the PDF and print on your home printer. Use plain cardstock for cut-and-insert badges, or Avery 5395 adhesive label sheets if you want peel-and-stick badges.

What Avery template number matches these name tags?

Our 6-up sheet is designed to match Avery 5395 (4"×3" name badge inserts). It also works with Avery 8395 and most generic conference badge insert packs. Always print a test page on plain paper and hold it up to your badge inserts to verify alignment before printing on label stock.

Can I print just one name tag instead of a full sheet?

Our template prints all 6 positions. If you only need one badge, print the sheet and leave the other positions blank — or fill the blank positions with a second attendee so you don't waste label stock.

What's the best paper for printing name tags at home?

For badge-holder inserts: standard 20 lb printer paper works fine since the holder provides rigidity. For freestanding name tags: 65–80 lb cardstock is ideal — stiff enough to stand up in a badge clip but thin enough to feed through most home printers. For adhesive peel-and-stick: use Avery 5395 label sheets.

Can I add a QR code to a printable name tag?

Not directly in this editor (QR generation is not a built-in feature). You can create a QR code in a free QR generator, save it as a PNG image, upload it to the template's image zone, and then export the PDF. This is a common workaround for conference badges that link to a digital business card.
