                         MAIL MERGE

                 Mail Merge is an important feature of any word processor document. It is the process of merging a main document
                 with the file of mailing addresses to create documents that can be used as invitations, letters, mailing labels, or printing
                 certificates for several people.

                 Since, the main document is merged with the mailing address, hence it is named as Mail Merge. There are three
                 important files involved in this process:

                 •   Main Document: It is the document that has a common letter or an invitation that needs to be sent to multiple
                   recipients. We can either create this before we start with the mail merge process or it can be created in the first step
                   of the mail merge wizard.

                 •   Data Source: It is a data file which contains the name and address records from which mailing labels and envelopes
                   can be derived. LibreOffice can create the database from spreadsheets, text files including Writer documents, and
                   databases such as MySQL.
                 •   Merged File/Form Letter: It is the merged document that will be obtained after the data source file and the main
                   document is merged during the process of Mail Merge.

                 Mail Merge can be used to print
                 •  Form letters, a document to send to a list of recipients

                 •  Mailing labels, labels for physical file folders, and similar purposes
                 •  Envelopes

                 Let us assume that the school is planning to celebrate its annual day and wishes to invite all the parents. Writing the
                 same invitation letter for the annual day celebration to 2000 parents in a school will be a tedious and time-consuming
                 process manually. This process is automated by sending a bulk mail to all parents in a fraction of the time by using mail
                 merge feature of a word processor.
