What Name Tag / Badge Maker does, with a checked example
You enter each attendee's details - name, title, organization - add a logo and an optional barcode or QR code, and this tool lays the finished badges on printable sheets, ready for the browser's print dialog. The sheet is the deliverable, meant to be printed, not kept on screen. What most people get wrong is the print settings, not the design: if the browser shrinks the page to fit, or the paper size differs from the preview, every badge prints smaller than its holder and a whole run of lanyard badges becomes unusable. Check scale and paper size before printing, not after.
Worked example
A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.
Input
Priya Nair | Session Lead | Northwind Labs | QR: https://example.com/checkin/102
->
Expected output
A badge showing those fields plus a QR code that decodes to exactly https://example.com/checkin/102 - scanning it returns that same URL, character for character.
Badge text is set directly from the fields, and a QR code stores its payload losslessly, so the printed code reproduces the entered URL exactly, with no rewriting or shortening.
