MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / November 2004Optical Mark Recognition
Here’s my dilemma. How can I create optical marks in Word? I’m generating a mail merge document within Word that produces different amounts of multiple pages. For example, an individual’s final output may be 5 pgs, while another may contain 9pgs and so forth. That’s ok. I’d like to know how Word can distinguish between these multiple pages and generate marks (i.e. lines) that will inform an optical line scanner the number of pages to collate before starting another set? I’m utilizing a Folding/Inserting devise that can scan lines on a page telling it when to stop the group, insert the group into an envelope, before starting a new group. Please do not multipost. You have posted this in at least 13 groups, in most of which your question is off-topic. The reason is simple: People may end up "wasting" their time answering a post that has already been answered elsewhere, thus it may be very likely that their particular response to a post be totally ignored if the reply received elsewhere was satisfactory to the original poster. > Here’s my dilemma.

Each letter will be separated by a Section Break. Run a macro that handles each Section as a separate print job.
