One way around it is what I've had to do because somehow my printer driver doesn't translate things correctly. I created a separate document for the envelope then moved the return address and To address to the appropriate locations to print in the correct places on my printer. I then saved the document and pull that up when envelope printing is needed. Not as handy as if it worked correctly, but it works. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
