You can select from two options on the X step when uploading a new template. Single Document option will create a one page export from your template, whereas Repeating Document option will repeat your document as many times until the criteria you set is met. The Repeating Document method is especially useful for scenarios where you’d like to create similar looking pages where only certain fields differ from one page to the other, such as mass creating invitations.
Repeating Document
Instead of creating several templates that look similar to each other, you can create one recursive print process and tie the repeating logic to a table named range. This way, you will be able to create one process where the number of pages in the export are dependent on the outcome of an input or output table.
To create a repeating print process, you must have a template that contains the appropriate stubs in it that correspond to the columns of your table named range.
The document below will repeat for each row in the data input table that contains data. For example, 5 entries into the underlying table named range will result in a 5 page PDF export with the corresponding row data printed into the stubs.
The export document will look like this,
Repeating Table
The idea behind creating tables with this method is building tables that change in size, based on the number of rows that contain data. To create a recursive table, your workbook needs to have a table named range that allows more than one row of data, and a Word document that contains column headers as stubs to be used in creating the print process.
You can create a dynamic table structure by inserting a document that only consists of the headers and another document that consists of the column stubs. The header document may look like below,
Document Type option under the Edit menu should be set to Single Document. The column stubs document needs to contain the column field names to be printed, inside double curly braces. This section must be added as a separate document and the rest of the table will be generated from this second document. The table document may look like below,
The Document Type option under the Edit menu should be set to Repeating Document since this document will repeat as many times as necessary to create the dynamic table.
The final table will be drawn based on Skip Row Type selection and how many table rows contain matching data. The resulting table in the export document might look like this,
