I am having problems both with U.S. Envelope types 6 and 10.  While the
dimensions appear to be correct in the envelope creation box, the print preview
does not show an envelope that looks like the physical envelope - for No. 6,
print preview displays a square - and the fields to not print where they are
supposed to print:

ENVELOPE 6:
The return address attempts to print far to the left of the page, so while the
vertical dimension is correct, the horizontal dimension does not correspond to
the physical envelope.  Similarly, the Addressee field does not print far enough
to the right - and when it is specified to be far enough to the right, OOo
mistakenly believes that it is running against the right-hand margin of the
envelope and therefore splits lines.  When the text box is elongated on the
left-hand side so that lines are displayed as they should be displayed, the
address prints almost in the center of the envelope, slightly to the left.

ENVELOPE 10:
While I have not done as much testing with number 10 envelopes, both the return
address and addressee fields are shifted down and to the right by about one inch
(2.54 cm) in each dimension - thus creating a lopsided (though fortunately still
useable) envelope.  However, the problem remains that the default placements are
incorrect.

These problems occured on a system running Gentoo Linux (frequently updated),
kernel 2.6.16-r9, CUPS 1.1.23-r7, and using a print driver most similar to
laserjet.ppd (with running diff between that and the file in /etc/cups/ppd
showing a difference in two lines).

Final note: Resolution of this issue would probably be of great boon to OOo as
it would remove what I believe to be one of the final serious advantages of MS
Word over OOo.  Thank you, in advance, for your help in resolving this.
