--- Comment #2 from caky63244@mypacks.net ---
I've tried to print #10 envelopes. When I go to File-Print, it shows it is
going to print a C5 envelope, not what I wanted.

Having spent 40 years in main-frame programming, I would venture to guess that
there is something screwed up either with the envelope characteristics table
(or whatever you call it) or the addressing/indexing/lookup into the table. 
Unless of course, it is the contents of the "#10" entry which are screwed up.
This is especially annoying since the #10 envelope is probably the most
commonly used. 

While I am retired, and not a commercial user, I DO have to send business-type
letters from time to time, and hand-written envelopes just don't hack it...

I am amazed that this problem, which should be rather easy to fix, has lasted
so long and has just a "normal" priority.

Another little fix, while you are at it, is to allow me to print an envelope
WITHOUT having another page involved.  A "Print" button on the envelope window
should be rather easy, too, as well as the provision of a warning when the
printer needs the envelope.

The above are "nice to have" - they would make printing envelopes much easier. 

The fix for the envelope size is vital: this bug makes using OO to print
envelopes very difficult, indeed.
