: a great public domain software for printing envelope.  It's in sonata I believe.

I do it routinely, and *never* have the envelope jam or stick *provided*
I buy reasonable quality envelopes (i.e. not the 400 for $1 thin as 
tissue ones).  Another thing to remember, even with good envelopes, is
to grab the envelope as soon as it passes through the printer and open it
because the heat from the printer can seal the (presumably empty) 
envelope.

BTW:  On the issue of apps for such things, I recently got a copy of 
SBook and it's GREAT!  Printing envelopes is just one of the things it
makes trivial.  Now if only Simson would add the ability to print form
letters (it already supports bulk E-mail).

Hope this is Helpful --- tom
