Envelopes printing upside-down
Sometimes Word makes changes behind your back just to keep you on your toes.
At least that's what it's easy to think. In reality, often a Word add-in will change settings irrelevant to its actual purpose. -- Suzanne S.

It might be a simple matter of changing this. Interestingly, the feed position shown for labels in my version of Word 2003 is not what I actually use (or that my printer requires), but then I don't print envelopes from the Envelopes dialog, either. -- Suzanne S.

Envelopes printing upside-down
It's true that Word sometimes seems to be infested with gremlins, especially
in the envelope orientation area. Sometimes you just have to force it it obey, which is the subject of Graham Mayor's page at http://www.gmayor.com/epson_envelope_orientation.htm (but the mayhem isn't particularly limited to Epson printers). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
