Creating a Data List that can be imported into Maestro Label Designer
Where to begin? Creating your file...
It might all seem intimidating at first, but Mail Merges are actually pretty simple.

Supported filetypes and how to create your file:
Supports .CSV (recommended), .XLS, .XLSX, .TXT
1. Open Microsoft Excel and add in any pertinent data:
