Multi-page documents #1

Open fvlasie opened 6 years ago

fvlasie commented 6 years ago

Hello,

Can this script be used with multi-page documents?

Suppose we have a letter that has two or more pages long...

I would like to use this to merge addresses with a multi-page self-mailing brochure.

Thank you!

Hello,

I would like to understand the requirement better. Please answer these questions:

  1. Will you have "tags" to be replaced of more than one page per letter?
  2. Will there be "linked" text boxes with text flowing across pages?
  3. Do you only want the PDFs for the letters? Or you need the native QuarkXPress file after mail merge?
  4. If you need the native file, will it be OK to create each letter as a separate layout in the same QuarkXPress project file?

PDFs would be fine.
