I want to print certificates for people who have taken a course. Since it's a large number of people, it would be rather tedious to copy-and-paste all those names into a document, so I'd like to automate that process.

Here's what I have:

  • a dummy certificate in the form of a writer .odt document ("[NAME] has successfully taken part in course X.")
  • a list with the names of all participants

OpenOffice (which functions identically here) has a Form Letter Guide, or LibreOffice has a Wizard to walk you through this. Choose Tools | Mail Merge Wizard | Click the Mail Merge icon on the Table Data bar to begin it. Here's a one minute video on the latter method.
