Hi

So I've done a mail merge where I've got 50, two page letters resulting in 100 pages all together. I want to save pages 1-2 to a seperate file and save different parts of it to different files or I want to be able to print just pages 1 and 2 only. However when I specify 1,2 in print preview it reads the whole file as pages 1 and 2 and so prints all the pages.

This could be really simple but I'm not sure what the solution is.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks :)

It's not clear whether you want to save or print the pages. Since you're presumably using a Letter merge, you need to specify which letter to print by its Section #. For example, instead of using 1-2 or 1,2, use s1. Or, to print the first page of the 3rd letter you'd use p1s3.

Thanks for the help. I've now solved the issue.
