Re; Duplicate Envelopes
I appreciate your time and effort. The conversion was done because IT
requested it. I inserted print codes in the Headers for, Envelope, letterhead, and plain paper. It seems to be working. Thanks again. From: "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" Subject: Duplicate Envelopes Date: Thursday, February 05, 2009 4:42 AM And, my suggestion is that you go back and use the letter/envelope template in its original .dot format. Converting .dot templates to .dotx is completely unnecessary as .dot templates work just as well, and in your case, maybe even better. -- Hope this helps.

Originally when we began the upgrade, I created a new 2007 folder. I opened all 1987 dot templates in Word 2007 then did a save as Word Template (dotx). All the templates converted and are in use. It is only the letters that produce a blank page - in this instance an envelope. "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ... Have you tried creating the letters under 2007 from the original .dot format templates? I do not believe that there is anything that has changed in Word 2007 that would be causing this to happen other than something that may have been done when you changed to dotx format. -- Hope this helps.

Our previous letters were in .dot format. We had Word 2000 and 2003 throughout the office and no issues with the envelopes. The current letters are stored in .dotx format. Our in-house database has now been programmed to pull from the 2007 folder. I did open one letter and save as Word 97-2003 format in the 2007 folder and then I removed the dotx version of the letter from the 2007 folder. We still had two envelopes print: one blank and the other with the address. The printers are not set for burst pages between jobs. "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ... If you save the letters in Word 97-2003 format, or start with a letter in that format, rather than docx, does the problem go away? -- Hope this helps.

I have set them up: Envelope, letter - in one document. This has worked for years with no issues (we began with Word 95). We have recently upgraded to Office 2007; the letters are Word 2007 documents and the database is an in-house system. The addresses for the envelope and return address in the letter as well as other data is pulled into the letter in Word. We then review and print the letters. The letter displays perfectly in Word and print preview also displays it perfectly, however when it prints it prints a blank envelope first then the addressed envelope followed by the letter. There is no page or section break at the beginning of the envelope and non at the end of the letter. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Vivian |
