Answers.Body: <p>There is a CiviCRM hook that allows the development of additional tokens, so it is certainly possible. Do I assume correctly that you are not developing yourself?

Body: <p>I need to include the amount pledged and the amount they need to pay (which are different values) within an email I'm sending from CiviMail to let our pledgers know when/how to pay and how much. This data is available under each contact, but I can't see anyway to add a new token so I can insert the necessary merge fields into my email and they aren't currently showing in the drop down list. Is this possible?</p>

  I need to include the amount pledged and the amount they need to pay (which are different values) within an email I'm sending from CiviMail to let our pledgers know when/how to pay and how much. This data is available under each contact, but I can't see anyway to add a new token so I can insert the necessary merge fields into my email and they aren't currently showing in the drop down list. Is this possible?
