Default HOW DO I CREATE A ENVELOPE TEMPLATE

I have an envelope for my shipping dept. that has basic criteria that they
have to manually type in on an old typewriter. What I want to do is to
create a template to where they can fill in the criteria on their PC's,
thereby getting rid of the old typewriter.

For example the current envelope has Order# printed on the front and they
have to manually type in the order # using the typewriter.

I've tried to create my own template, but whenever I try to enter the
criteria, the existing print (i.e., Order# will move according to what I
type). I just want them to be able to bring up the envelope and just fill in
the blanks without messing up the existing forms.

You can modify the standard templates available for download from my web
site to add a Macrobutton field for the order information in a similar
manner to the way I have used this field to grab the address.
