Mail Merge Guide

A simple guide explaining the uses of Mail Merge and how it can help you.

What is a mail merge?

A mail merge (or data merge) is a method of taking data from a database, spreadsheet, or other form of structured data, and inserting it into documents such as letters, mailing labels, and name tags. It usually requires two files, one storing the variable data to be inserted, and the other containing the information that will be the same for each result of the mail merge and the instructions for formatting the variable data.

Why use mail merge?

A mail & data merge is the perfect solution for when you need to print out large quantities of the same letters or labels with personalized information on each design. Instead of editing and printing the individual label multiple times, a mail merge will allow you to import data files (such as mailing lists available for sale) into our label program so that all you have to do is lay out where you want the fields and the program will populate the rest for you!
