Hello Mario, You can make changes using the options button in the envelope creation dialog box. As you tab through the options there are two Font buttons. The first is for the delivery address and the second for the return address. You can make changes to the font, font size, etc. in this dialog box. However, whatever changes you make you need to keep in mind such things as how your changes will affect line spacing, margins, will the text extend too far across the envelope, will text fit properly on the lines, etc. Changes you make using the options dialog box will affect only the current envelope as long as you don't use the button to set your changes as default. You can always create your own envelope styles and template to use or modify the current styles but the built-in Word styles are already set up to have the text fit properly.
Take care.

At first, I thought there must be a simple fix but now your response is discouraging because "adding to document" adds a tedious procedure that shouldn't have to be.
