### Implementing Variable Data Printing (VDP)
To incorporate VDP into your project, follow these steps:
#### 1. Data Preparation:
Create a data source (e.g., Excel spreadsheet, CSV file) containing the variable data to be printed. Each row should correspond to a unique record.
#### 2. Template Design:
Design a template (HTML/PDF) that includes placeholders for the variable data. Use the following HTML tags for placeholders:
```html
```
Replace `field_name` with the actual data field name in your data source.
#### 3. Data Binding:
Integrate a data binding library (e.g., Handlebars, Mustache) into your code. Use this library to populate the placeholders in the template with the variable data.
#### 4. Rendering:
Generate the personalized output by merging the template and the variable data using the data binding library.
#### 5. Printing:
Finally, send the personalized output to a printer for printing.
#### Example:
Consider a scenario where you want to print customized invoices. Your data source contains the following information:
| Invoice Number | Client Name | Invoice Amount |
|---|---|---|
| 1001 | John Doe | INR 10,000 |
| 1002 | Jane Johnson | INR 12,500 |
Your template would look something like this:
```html
Invoice
Client:
Amount Due:
```
When the template is merged with the data, the output would be:
```html
Invoice
1001
Client: John Doe
Amount Due: INR 10,000
```
