    Name tags for all memebrs of our program wear them weekly. Would like to use the clip style but they are too expensive for our non-profit budget.

    I've found the regular 10 per page business cards work better as inserts instead of those provided. Provided inserts are too wide and hard to insert without trimming and paper weight is flimsy.

    This name badge holder did fine but I think I will just get the clip on style next time. No one wants to put a hole in their clothing and some of the pin backs looked like they might leave residue on clothes.

      I make all the badgers for our non-profit organization. We use these name badges every day for our many volunteers and staff at our Food Bank, Food Pantry and Soup Kitchen. Almost every week I add new volunteer name badgers.

        I tried the Avery software that was "supposed" to be compatibly and it was not. I ended up doing my own and cutting them out using stiff paper.

        The cards for insertion need to be carefully detached - they leave jagged edges rather than a crisp tear. Therefore they need to be cleaned up before insertion. The Avery online software does not line up very well for printing - suggest practicing on a blank paper first - the images and items placed on the tag move down as the sheet prints.

            A:

            74551 - the box says to use 74549 but the latest version of Word does not have that number. I used 74551 and they came out nicely.

            A:

            Staples stores normally carry packages of just the badge holders. I recently purchased Avery #74549 "Pin Style Name Badges", a box of 100 plastic clear name badge covers from my nearest Staples.

          We have plenty of plastic covers for the badges but need more paper badges.
          Is there a way to get refills without buying a complete kit?

            There are extra holes on the back that might allow you to re-orient the badge, but I haven't tried it.

            No, you can't. The pins are permanently affixed in a horizontal configuration.
