I do mails with postcards that I print at home. I would like to be able to
print the address directly onto the postcards. Is that possible?

If your printer can handle the post cards, then you should be able to print
on them. I they are individual cards, then a formletter type mailmerge main
document should be used in which the page size matches the cards. If there
are multiple cards to a page, locate a label template (Tools>Letters and
Mailings>Envelopes and Labels>Labels>Options) that matches the size and
layout of the labels (or modify one of the existing templates to suite) and
then use a label type mailmerge.
