Text Fields & Fonts
How your fields are displayed on an ID Card is important.You can
use different types of text fields, and display them with various
attributes to create an ID card that will enhance your organization.
There are three types of text fields that you can use on your ID
Card:
- Variable Text Field
- Static Text Field
- Composite (Variable & Static) Text Field
Variable Text Fields contain data that varies from card
to card, such as names, employee numbers, etc.
Static Text Fields contain data that is the same on every
card, such as a company or school name.
Composite Text Fields are a combination of variable and
static data. Composite Text Fields are convenient for labeling data.
An example of this would be Name: John Smith, where
Name: is static, and John Smith is variable.
Fonts
Text fields are available in a wide variety of fonts and attributes.
However, just because these options are available doesn't necessarily
mean you have to use them all.
To avoid making the card look too "busy", it's probably
best to use two fonts at most. Arial and Times New Roman are two
of the more popular choices. They are familiar to people and they're
easy to read.
