What's the format of the text file?
His example doesn't seem to perform any comparisons to determine what to name the file. If the text file is just a list then something like this could work:
$file = Get-Content -Path .\individuals2.txt
foreach ($line in $file) { Copy-Item -Path .\template.docx -Destination ".$(2 + $line + '.docs')" }
Edit: Wow, Lemmy destroys formatting.
It's markdown, you should be able to indent your lines by 4 spaces or fence with triple backtics to get code blocks. Your client's editor may have a button to help

That's good to know. Thanks!
Thanks for your help, but I had a couple errors pop up when I tried this out. I don't need to input anything in the code you provided, do I?
It's just a Notepad text file.
The confusion is that CSV is also just a Notepad text file that uses Commas to Separate Values.
They are asking about what kind of values are in it.
Just words? It's a list of names.
