I'm setting up several Mail/Merge templates to print directories. I do Page
Setup in the template and I want Merge output document to have this setup. If
I select "Directory" as Document Type and "Start from template" the merge
puts out letters with a Section Break (New Page) after each record which is
not good for a directory.

If I start from current document, and insert the template file, then I get a
directory list with all the attributes of the template except for page set
up. Is there a solution or work around?

I'm answering my own question. Open the template as a document, then select
Mail/Merge, specify current document, and the page set up is preserved as
specified in the template. Seems obvious now that I know how.
