Re: [users] RE: Printing an envelope

[PAUL SUTTON]

Agreed, in fact for the return address I have done this,  I have a whole 
sheet for this purpose,  however when you are doing a one off,  having a 
whole sheet of lables and printing one can cause problems.  I.e you then 
need to work out which lable to print on then watch that the places 
where lables have been removed do not cause printer feed problems,  it's 
easier for me to just print on an envelope.

My solution works for me,  I am sure that if I set up a page to the 
dimentions of a c4 envelope, 1/3 a4 roughly, it would work just as well, 
it's about trial and error, and working out how to do things,

My solution works fine for my needs at the moment, if I need to print 
on  A5 (1/2 a4) then it's simple, enough to adust.  Incedently I am not 
using envelope printing software within OOo,  just printing as I would 
on to A4 paper, but sticking an envelope in instead.

Just to add to this,  I have A4 size envelopes, If I want to print an 
address on the actual envelope, I do the following

1. set the page orientation to landscape
2. type the address in the centre of the document using centre align 
tool
3. use page preview to check it's in the middle of the envelope
4. put the envelope in the sheet feeder
5. print the document

I then have the address printed in the middle center of the envelope, 
and it looks much better than writing by hand.

I must be missing something here! Granted that OO.o is not the world's 
best program when it comes to handling envelopes, what's the problem 
with printing a suitable label as and when necessary? I find that the 
transparent Avery J8560 gives acceptable results on most envelopes, 
particularly when the envelope orientation bug periodically surfaces 
in a release of OO.o.
