As I said in post #4, the only way you could produce such curved text via a mailmerge would be to set the document up for a label merge and use PRINT fields to curve the output. Although the PRINT field my previous post demonstrates can produce both the circle and the text (which is the surest way of getting the alignment right), it could produce just the curved text.

By their very nature, PRINT fields have to be encoded with the language (e.g. postscript, PCL, PDL, KPDL, etc.) used by the target printer.

For what you want, most commercial printers should have the ability to take your data as a CSV file and use their own software to parse and curve it onto the labels.
