Using List Merge

You can insert information from an Address or Custom List in a text block. For example, you might have a change of address postcard that you want to send to all your family and friends. You can merge the first names of all these people into a text block that begins “Dear <First Name>” and when you print, each postcard will have a different first name. You can merge any information from an Address or Custom List into a text block.

To merge information from a list into a text block:

1.  Double-click the text block in which you want to merge information from either an Address or a Custom List. Click the place where you want the information to appear, which will set the insertion point there.

2.  Choose Address Field or Custom List Field from the Insert menu. The Insert Address Field or Insert Custom List Field dialog appears.

3.  Select the field you want to insert in your text. Click OK.

4.  A placeholder for that field is displayed in the text block.
