Judi I type a lot of envelopes and I do not get a blank page with each one. The way I did it was Insert --> envelope fill in all the information and format and select printer. Then I click new document. This gives me a new screen with just the envelope (#10 in my case). I then save the envelope as a odt document. when i want to print new ones, I call it up change the name and address to the place it going an print it. I do not save it when done. So I use the original as a sudo template. Since you said singfle envelopes I assume your not talking about a mail list type document.
