you can change the separator - Select the people whom you wish to email to
- Remember not to select any empty rows at the end if there are any
- Enter the email columns & name column (if you decide to insert a cert, this column will be used)
- All attachments will be taking the same name as the files in your folder
- Click SEND when you're ready to send the email

- Mainly drag & drop, you can export your design and it'll be exported as design.json in your folder.
- After exporting, you can import the same design back.
- Make sure you click SAVE DESIGN after done with your design (even if you're importing)
- If you want to use variables, (like name from csv file in step 1) just wrap them in ^*....*^ in anywhere in your email design
- Must use JPG format, PNG format is too big, which causes the app to crash when trying to create Blob URL for email sending
- Will only be used if you checked 'use cert' in email settings
- Filename default is attachment if no name is specified.
- Sometimes if the pdf is not updating, click any of the slider.
- Due to unknown issue, the fonts are kinda above 0, so you must set Y to bigger than 0 to start seeing the words
- The words in the file will be replaced with name column as specified in email setting
- You can set align center to true, then the X position will be used as the center of the texts.
- For centering, you can use the align center and x distance of 105 or 149 for portrait and landscape respectively.
