How to use datamerge with variable lengths of text?

$

Hello,

 

I'm looking for a way to automaticly format brochures from a database . I allready found out that datamerge lets you do this quite easily. But I encounter a problem when I use large amounts of text.

 

How I see it, the only solution is to reserve enough space for the larges text in order to make all of the text appear in the document. But this leaves large open spaces and even blank pages in my document when I deal with less text.

 

Is there a way to make the document adapt to the amount of text? So that Indesign creates more space for large amounts of text and erases blank pages when there is less text?

 

Maybe Datamerge isn't the right solution for my problem, I'm open to suggestions.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Iris
