Default Mail merge result in separate world files instead of one file containing all the data

hi,
I regularly make mail merges from an excel list.
I then convert the result into one pdf file to which I give a name.


I then extract each page of this pdf file into as much files as there are pages.
The result is several pages with always the same name + one number beside.
I then have to see the content of each page to give it a more appropriate name.

I am looking for a method that could generate the mail merge in as much files as there are page or lines in the data (xlsx file) instead of one file containing all the records.

is this possible ?

thank you.

kind regards.

Did you look at the Send Mailmerge Output to Individual Files topic in the Mailmerge Tips and Tricks 'Sticky' thread at the top of this forum???
