Folks, I understand you are working on 2.4. Great program, with one

flaw, IMHO: envelope printing feature. Several of my friends (myself
including) were unable to get the envelope printing to
work--consequently, we
went back to evil Word. But we could print our envelopes there!
There are several elements that could be improved in OpenOffice.org, but
envelope printing is not top of the list. It's child's play to create
one or
more envelope templates and to subsequently use them to create envelopes.
Would it really be so hard to embed several envelope templates in OOo in
order to make it easier for users to do envelope addresses. I think it
is unreasonable to expect users, especially those who only use a word
processor on rare occasions to jump through so many hoops to do a basic
thing like printing envelopes. On a similar note, much of the blame for
it being difficult to address envelopes must be shared by the printer
manufacturers, their hardware and firmware designs really don't help
much. It has long been my practice to just print a second copy of every
letter and cut out the address and tape it to the envelope. As far as I
am concerned M$ word is really no better in this area than OOo writer.
