Affinity Publisher - mailmerge

[E9B6 6]

I have Page Plus X9 (both 32 and 64 bit editions), having been a user of PP since version 1

The 64bit version cannot use Excel spreadsheets for its data source, whilst the 32 bit can.

I use the spreadsheet to be able to visually place table plans which are then merged to provide menu/place setting cards. I cannot do that with the sdb serif databases.

 

So Serif, please ensure that the Affinity Publisher 64 bit can use Excel spreadsheets.

 

Thank you

THe essential question is "Can APub do mailmerge?"

No.

So it will be worth keeping a 32bit version of PagePlu, which will do mailmerge. Will that continue to be supported (until Apub has a mailmerge function?

Yes. Unless a Microsoft update breaks PP, it will just keep running.
