See the OO list...many of us have complained & their answer is 'read the manual"! Needless to say this is not a help, since it still doesn't print. Abiword sounds like the answer if you don't like/or need to use Scribus, a DTP program, which is my answer. Not doing envelopes is a known OO, Star Office problem, in spite of what the list gurus say.
I have suse9.2 and tried to print an envelope #10 on an epson printer. I found out that Open office refuses to generate the landscape command in the postscript files. I generated PS files and pdf files to take a look at the results. All of them show up as poitrait mode. Is this a bug in Open office 1.1.3? I was finally able to get it to work in Abiword. It works fine so the printer is working correctly.
