Default Mail merger with different template/main body text

You need to create a separate mail merge main document for each language.

However, I am not sure that mail merge is really the best thing for this
unless you are preparing many certificates at the one time.

Hi,
I’m trying to create a mail merger for a colleague at work for creating
certificates for our customers.
Every product we dispatch must be accompanied with a cert which will
have the serial number, build date, product model, the certifying name
etc. I have created the merger which works great but now I’ve being
asked to make the main body of the document to change for different
languages. The input data as mentioned above is generic and will remain
the same. It’s just the overall text of the document I want to change
with different languages. Is there a way to do this? I’ve tried
everything I can think of and can’t seem to find anything.
I’d appreciate any help at all. Thanks.
