Peru has officially used the international series of paper sizes since 1967; it is reasonable to suggest that they use the International envelope sizes listed in the above reference. I am sure a phone call to the local postal administration will confirm this.

But I don't live in the US and those aren't readily available to me.

Google is your friend. Here are four examples. My recommendation, try link #4 first.
1. <<http://templates.openoffice.org/en/template/10-envelope>>
2. <<https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/FAQ/Writer/Printing/How_to_print_an_envelope_with_OpenOffice.org>>
3. <<https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Writer_Guide/Print_envelopes_from_db>>
4. <<http://openoffice.blogs.com/openoffice/2009/07/a-good-oldfashioned-envelope-template-for-openofficeorg-writer.html>>

There are about 6 different sizes preprogrammed into Writer for printing
envelopes, but I don't really know what size those numbers represent, so
the way I have been printing envelopes is this:
1. Measure the envelope I want to print
2. Open a new text document in Writer
3. Under Format > Page I set up a User format to the size of the
envelope I want to print
4. Set the margins so that there isn't too much space between the
return address and the edge
5. Type in return address and destination address as I want them to
appear on the envelope
6. Print

Assuming you are talking about Writer, what I've done is to create a template with the margins set to the correct location for the To address box with a suitable size and font face, and another text box with a return address filled in. The settings depend on your printer and the envelope size. What I do is test the template on a blank full size sheet of paper, and adjust it so that it will work with your envelopes in your printer.
HTH. If you want to do it from a list, others can help - won't help much if the printer doesn't autofeed envelopes.
