[PLUG] Mail merge & envelopes

  OpenOffice-1.0.1 is proving to be a very big disappointment for producing
merged documents for mailing; it's far from ready for prime time. While it
will produce envelopes, it cannot pick up the addressee from the base
document.

  AbiWord-1.0.3 appears to have neither capability. Does anyone know
differently?

  The above two applications also suffer from an appalling lack of written
documentation. Sigh.

  Does KWord have a mail merge capability and will it produce envelopes from
a letter?

TIA,

Rich
