At least it would let you see what I mean by an envelope template. Although that template is dated in that it contains an obsolete POSTNET barcode, it otherwise works fine. If you download the Envelope tutorial at the bottom of the tutorials on my downloads page, it has a sample envelope template. I believe this is a bug and it has been there since at least Word 2010. I suspect it is designed that way so that it will work on smaller envelopes, but I certainly understand your not liking it. The frame is created to be horizontally centered on the page with a 2" indent inside the frame. That style is changed by the use of the envelope button and is apparently hard-wired into Word. It is not part of the style setting for Envelope Address in the normal template.

I do not know where that 2" indent comes from. I currently have a macro attached to my QAT which creates a new document based on the envelope template.

In other words, I bypassed the Word envelope function. If I wanted to keep an envelope I would simply save the envelope created from the template in a folder labeled envelopes with a document name showing the addressee. I created envelope templates that looked the way I wanted and which have MacroButton Field prompts for me to fill in for the addressee. First, long ago I became frustrated with envelopes in Word because I wanted to be able to have multiple return addresses.
