Am now using mailmerge with Ovation Pro by calling my mailmerge document from
software. Have discovered that on the windows version the printer is not
remembered even if set and saved. This means that it is necessary to go to
print, select the printer and use set before entering mailmerge.
The operation would be simplified if maimerge had similar options to print and
in particular was able to select the printer.
This is not a problem with RISCOS because the printer is easily selected from
the system at the icon bar.
I've encountered all the above myself. I can see the argument for
wanting to save the printer with the document - perhaps even more
information, some documents I always print using duplex (print both
sides).
I've just not been brave enough to make the changes - you may not always
want a given printer, for example if a document is passed to someone
else.
