Default Change position of return address on envelope

It appears OK in the document window, but in print preview it cuts off the
first ten characters on each line.

Thanks,
Tony

In the Document window, does it appear in the correct (desired) place on the
Envelope? How about in PrintPreview?

Hello Doug.

I'm not sure i understand your question. I don't know how to change the
"paragraph format for the Return Address".

Do you mean go to Mailings/Envelopes, click the options button? The
return
address has a font, a From left: and a From top:. They are both set to
Auto.

Otherwise, there are no spaces in front of the return address text in the
Return address: text box.

Thanks,
Tony

This is probably an issue with the way the Envelopes are being fed into
the
Printer. The default margin settings for such an envelope are Top 0.25"
and
Left 0.4". Do you by any chance have the paragraph format for the Return
Address defined with Space before it?

Hello.

I'm using MS Word 2007 SP2 to print an address on a size 10 envelope (4
1/8
x 9 1/2) on a HP Deskjet 855c.

When i print individual envelopes, using Mailings/Envelopes dialog box,
it
prints the address OK, but when it prints the return address, it prints
about
an inch from the top left side and about a half inch down from the top
of
the
envelope.

I tried using the information from he
http://www.gmayor.com/changing_envelope_layout.htm

All that did was put a picture of an envelope in my document and now i
can't
get rid of it. It did not change the position of the printed return
address.

I am not doing any kind of fancy mail merge with a form letter or
anything
like that. Just a simple envelope print.

Does anybody know how to change where the return address prints without
putting a picture of an envelope in my document?

Also, does anybody know how to get rid of the envelope in my document?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony
