I am ready to give up, but will try again from the beginning. I open a document and click on Insert- Envelope. My printer settings are for the envelope to be fed narrow end first, in the centre of the paper guide, as my LaserJet printer requires. The dialog as it stands shows an envelope 22

I think that the problem is that the template shows a fixed height of 16 cm while the envelope itself has a height of 11 cm, excluding the flap. The kit you mentioned was a help, but it tells me that my envelope needs to be rotated 180 degrees when it doesn't. The orientation is correct as it

Shift the image not working? If you have a strip I would guess that using the shift spin would fix the problem. Remember, we cannot see what you see so if this is not the solution you will have to be more graphic in you description. On Sun, 2006-03-12 at 02:22 +1100, Doug Laidlaw wrote: I

There is no image. It just occurred to me that what I have described as the strip along the top was the page's top margin. I can reduce that with the Format - Page menu. The problem is, that the text boxes don't move up with the margin, i.e. the space occupied by the margin moves to a spot
