“Mailing” in the PowerPoint (same as in Word),

“Mailing” in the PowerPoint (same as in Word),

I’m wondering why the tab “mailing” is not there in the PowerPoint! Then how to get the “mailing” feature that is built-in in the Word to the PowerPoint? This is for example frequently used in issuing certificates that is designed in the PowerPoint.



please, have a look on the attached file.


Thank you for the help,

Best

PowerPoint does not and never has had a mailmerge function. Indeed, I can't think of any reason why anyone would want one - it's not as if there's a recognised need to produce multiple presentations for display via a data projector in the way that a mailmerge in Word is used for producing multiple letters, emails or labels.

Your reference to issuing certificates suggests you're trying to use the wrong tool. You should consider using Word or Publisher instead - both of which support mailmerge.

Many thanks Paul for the answer and the advice.
