I am having a right game trying to print DL envelopes ( 1/3 A4) from open office.
First there is the slighty ridiculous routine by which you have to create a new first page of any document for which you want the envelope, and then you have to print that off before you can print your actual document.
The problem relates to the orientation of the envelope - despite changing every conceivable setting I cannot get the thing to print the text in line with the body of the envelope where the envelope feeds into the (HP) printer short edge first.
Really boring problem, but I thought I'd ask!
