I'm using open office version 2.1 and my problem is with the
insert>envelope function. When I have a document and insert envelope
then print the text on the envelope and the text on the document are
printed in reverse order and reverse format. What I mean is that the
document text which is to be printed on an 8 1/2 x 11 page is printed
in a format that would suggest more of a letter seeing that half of
the document is missing (left half) and the other half is showing
(right half). Then when it goes to print the envelope it prints it
horizontally (as if it was a letter) and not vertically. Where as if I
have a blank document and insert an envelope then print it spits out
the first page blank then the envelope is printed as it should be.
What can I do to get this to work like it's suppose to?

Do you have a separate paper tray for the envelopes? I don't. So I have
to print the envelope and the document separately:
1. Using normal paper, print pages 2-n by selecting exactly that in the
print dialogue from File>Print
2. Remove the normal paper, insert an envelope oriented correctly for
your printer and print page 1 only using the same dialogue.
Of course this assumes that your envelope page comes before your
document pages. If the envelope is last, print the document as pages
1-(n-1) and then print the envelope as page n.
You also need to ensure that the page formats & styles are correct. On
my printer, the envelope is printed with the "Envelope" style in
landscape orientation but the document is "A4" style in portrait
orientation. These settings are printer dependent; some printers, like
mine, take envelopes short edge first, hence landscape while others take
them long edge first and would therefore require portrait orientation.
Please note that I'm using the word "style" in its very specific
OpenOffice jargon meaning. For details about "styles", see the Help and
the on-line documentation available at the OpenOffice web site.
