    I don’t think Coreldraw has the facility for sequential numbering.

    Have you got any mates with Graphix Advantage? That does it, maybe someone could set it up for you and provide the file.

    Just for info,
    as you have it sorted,
    signlab can also to seqential numbering, and even insert different text int badges etc.

    Corel has mail merge but its linked with the printer side… can be done with programming VBA, so if SL can do it then use that.

    I don’t know what RIP you are using but the latest upgrade to Versaworks included the facility for variable data.

    Colorip is Wasatch which some people may be using as Troop. When I was using it, it did not have this facility.

    Haven’t tried this myself as I use signlab but you may find this number generator utility for X3 useful?
