Mail merge I: Use mail merge for mass mailings How it works In any mail merge, you’ll deal with three different elements. Understanding these elements will help you get the mail merge results you want and expect. The main document that you start with. Recipient information, such as each person’s name and address that you want to merge with the main document. The finished documents, which include the information in the main document plus each recipient’s unique information.

It contains the elements shown here. Content that is identical in each copy, such as the main body text of a form letter. You only have to type this text once, regardless of how many letters you intend to print. Placeholders for each recipient’s information. For example, in a form letter, the address block and greeting name would be unique in each copy.

Recipient information might be: Addresses on envelopes or labels; names in the greeting line of a form letter; salary amounts in messages that you send to your employees; personal notes about favorite products in postcards that you mail to your best customers; or numbers on redeemable coupons.
