Quite obviously, if you "have some text, or tables, or image" the mailmerge must provide space for that. Again, though, if you want to have the output all on successive lines, you should make sure your "text, or tables, or image" occurs before the first mergefield and that you "delete all except for two paragraph breaks or one line break and one paragraph break after the mergefield".
