Hi. My friend recently upgraded to Word 5.1a. He has a stylewriter I printer
and has had trouble using the new envelope feature on Word. 

The page set up options seem messed up.  When he tries to print an
envelope, he does not have an envelope option to click on for the
paper size. (I am talking about the size at the type of the dialog
box- not the menu which allows you to pick which size of envelope.)
Instead of an envelope option, he has an international fax option.

This is strange because when he goes to teh Page Setup menu while
in a document, the envelope option is there --not the international fax
option.  

The page set up options in the envelope printing box also have
a 'computer paper' option instead of 'custom paper size' option. The
custom paper size option exists when he choses Page Seteup in a 
document.

Basically, he is unable to use the envelope command now, because he cannot
chose 'Envelope' as his paper type.  Can anyone help? Did he install
Word 5.1 incorrectly? 

He is using Stylewriter driver 7.2.2


Please send me email if you an help.

Thanks
