Objectifs :
This document aims to provide a comprehensive guide on how to create mail merge envelopes using Microsoft Word, detailing each step involved in the process, from setting up the document to printing the envelopes.
Chapitres :
-
Introduction to Mail Merge Envelopes
Mail merge envelopes allow users to efficiently create personalized envelopes for mass mailing. This guide will walk you through the steps to create envelopes that match your email messages or letters. -
Starting the Mail Merge Process
To begin, close the current document and ensure it is saved. Then, navigate to 'File', select 'New', and open a blank document. On the 'Mailings' tab, click 'Start Mail Merge' and choose 'Envelopes'. -
Setting Envelope Options
You will first need to select the envelope size. Choose from standard sizes or enter a custom size. A preview of the envelope will be displayed. Adjust the layout for the return and delivery addresses as needed, and click 'Font' to change font formatting. For this guide, we will use the default settings. -
Configuring Printing Options
Next, click on the 'Printing Options' tab. This section provides instructions on how to feed envelopes into your printer. For instance, some printers require the envelope to be placed against the top and right edges of the printer tray, facedown and rotated clockwise. It is advisable to print a test envelope before proceeding with the final mail merge. If the test print does not come out correctly, you can adjust the settings or press 'Reset' to revert to the recommended feed method for your printer. -
Adding Recipients
Now, it's time to add the recipients. Click 'Use an Existing List', locate your recipient list, and click 'Open'. If you need to make changes to the list, you can click 'Edit Recipient List', but for this guide, we will leave it unchanged. -
Inserting Address Blocks
To add addresses, click in the area designated for the delivery address. Select the paragraph that Word has placed for the address block. You can view paragraph marks by going to the 'Home' tab and clicking 'Show/Hide Paragraph Marks'. Click 'Address Block' to set it up similarly to previous instructions. Choose a less formal name format, uncheck 'Insert Company Name', and select 'Never Include the Country or Region in the Address'. Uncheck 'Format Address According to the Destination Country or Region' and click 'OK'. -
Previewing and Saving the Envelope
Click 'Preview Results' to review the names. Next, add a return address in the paragraph that Word has added in the upper left corner. Save the envelope by selecting a location and typing a name. Since this envelope is for a specific letter, save it in the same folder with the same name, appending 'envelope' to the end for easy identification. -
Finishing the Mail Merge
Finally, click 'Finish & Merge' and select 'Print Document'. Load your envelopes into the printer and click 'OK'. If you are using a new printer, it is wise to print one envelope first as a test by selecting 'Current Record'. If everything prints correctly, you can then select 'All' and click 'OK'. -
Conclusion and Further Learning
You now have the essential knowledge to perform basic mail merge tasks. However, there is much more to explore, such as adding rules, custom fields, and working with Excel spreadsheets. For further learning, please refer to the links provided in the course summary.

Can I edit my recipient list during the mail merge process?
Yes, you can edit your recipient list during the mail merge process by clicking on Edit Recipient List after selecting your existing list.
What is the purpose of the Preview Results feature?
The Preview Results feature allows you to see how the merged documents will appear with the actual recipient data before you finalize and print them.
How can I save my envelope after creating it?
