Yes, It's pretty slick, actually. You select Envelopes from the Tools menu.
At the top is a pane for the Delivery Address. Next to it is a little
"contact" icon...click it and your Address Book opens. Select a contact, and
click on the Insert Address button; the address is put into the Delivery
Address pane. The Address Book window won't close or move out of your way,
though; you need to take care of that detail yourself.
The bottom pane is for the Return Address. There's a checkbox for using your
name and address (if you've entered all of your personal information). I've
found that under some circumstances, even though the checkbox is checked, my
information doesn't appear. Unchecking it and checking it again takes care
of that.
You can also make other selections here...font & size for the two addresses,
whether or not you want a Postal Bar Code, positioning of the addresses,
etc.
In the lower left is a checkbox for adding the envelope to the current
document. If unchecked a new document is created.
It *sounds* somewhat complicated, but once you've done it a couple of times
you'll find that it works quite well.
One more tip if you want to do another envelope to someone else: in the
document (envelope) window, just select and delete the current addressee.
Then select Address Book from the Tools menu. When you select a contact and
click on Insert Address, that contact's address will be inserted at the
cursor.
