Abstract
A mail assembly system and method which utilizes non-print post processing data embedded within the mail statement print data of a data record to carry out post processing operations for a plurality of mailing pieces. The data record is provided to a printer system which sequentially outputs a plurality of printed mail statements according to the statement print data. A wedge or splitter device retrieves the post processing data from the print data stream, and provides the post processing data to a system controller computer. As each printed mail statement is transferred from the printer system to a post processing system, the post processing data for each mailing piece is correlated or matched with each mail statement, and post processing operations are accordingly carried out. The invention thus avoids the use of printed identification codes on mail statements or other control documents for accessing post processing data from a data record.
