    I was able to do the mail merge in excel format by using excel template and node functions but this is not acceptable by the project requirement in my process. They need these statement under word or pdf format.

    So how could I mail merge customized statement for large number of individuals in word or pdf format? I am currently using LAE 6.1.4 but I suspect there is no build in function to do this in the publishing nodes

    One of the thought would be to customize a LAE node to take the template to create excels first and then execute a 3rd party command line utility to convert all of the excels to PDF, but how exactly I could do so and what are my other options?

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
