To export the book or selected chapters as PDF:
1. To export just certain chapters, make sure their names are selected in
the chapter list.
2. Choose Publish as PDF... from the BookPlus File menu.
3. Under "Print Range" on the General tab, select Entire book to output
all chapters, or Selected chapters to output just those you selected.
You can also select the Pages option to output one or more specific
page(s). Whichever option you've chosen, a drop-down list lets you
export all pages in the range, or just odd or even pages.
4. Set other options as detailed in Exporting PDF files on p. 243, then
click OK.
Using mail merge
Most commonly, mail merge means printing your publication a number of
times, inserting different information each time from a data source such as an
address list file—for example into a series of letters or mailing labels.
PagePlus can handle many kinds of data sources and more challenging creative
tasks. It is even possible to merge picture data (for example, digital photos) into
single fields or even auto-create a grid layout of pictures and text suitable for
catalogs or photo albums.
As mail merge is an advanced feature of PagePlus, see the PagePlus Help for
more detail. Subjects covered include:
• Opening a data source.
