I'll take a look at the links you pointed to. The idea is, starting from a template in odt/doc/docx, to "fill in the gaps" and save the filled document. Is there any other way rather than mail merge?

I generally do not have reason to use mailmerge, but did you want to send something by email or to print? Someone posted a question about using mail merge with UNO in Basic here: <a href="https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/syntax-for-using-spreadsheet-as-data-source-in-emailmerge-macro/24831">https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/syntax-for-using-spreadsheet-as-data-source-in-emailmerge-macro/24831</a> From my perspective, the fact that they used the server com.sun.star.text.MailMerge is useful in that it provides a pointer to the service to look at. Another request for help here: <a href="https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=59312">https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=59312</a> No answer; sadly. In AndrewMacro.odt, there is an example that merges a bunch of documents from a directory into a single document and it is listed as being related to "mail merge", so I assume that somebody had run a mail merge and this processes created many documents. But again, I have not run a mail merge in many years.
