I agree with jfrorie -- 20057 is not a duplicate, this should be reopened. 

I know my users love Word's "make an envelope out of this" feature, and I'll
have trouble getting them to switch (to 3.1) without it; they're generating tons
of individual documents per day, and many of them need envelopes (but it's not
part of the existing merge.) Law firms are like that.

Word's feature takes either your current text selection, or the block of text
the caret is currently in, as long as it's a 3+ line block of text, or finds the
first 3+ line block of text in the document (in that order.) Maybe that's not
perfect, OOO should do its own thing, but it's certainly a much faster way for
users to setup an envelope after they've fixed up a letter. No copy-pasting
required. Also: Word allows you to print the envelope/label without
appending/inserting it into the current document or creating a new document for
it. My users don't really care to keep the resulting envelope, but they do
intend to archive the letter.

All of this applies to one-off labels, too.
