I have tried mail merge and it works fairly well.  You can define a single
"item" like address to contain multiple lines by imbedding a "newline" character
which displays as a bullet in show paragraph mode.  I'm not sure what character
this really is (I tried ^J when shipping a mailing list down and that didn't
work) but it should take about 2 seconds to look at the file with fedit or
something and find out.  The manual doesn't say....

I have also pasted in pictures.  You can scale and stretch them in much the
same way as MacDraw.  They appear as a "paragraph",  so you can align the
picture to the left, right, or center of the column.  You can't explicitly
put text next to a picture,  but you can use multiple columns to get the
desired effect.
