I've developed a (paid-for) tool that allows you to do exactly that. You can set it up to use the value of a field as the email address, as well as specify the subject line, message body, etc. You can find it here: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Mail Merge and Email PDF Files

Hi Anniem,

The mail merge is available with some versions of the PDF Maker plugin for Office (the Acrobat ribbon).

However, the option is not available in MS Excel.

You may try the workaround provided in the following forum thread with the similar issue.

Import data from Excel into fillable pdf using Acrobat XI Pro - is it possible? How?

Check if that works for you.

Hope that helps.

Let us know if you need any help.
