DIY envelope calligraphy

My invites REALLY must go out. And some of the printing calligraphers I contacted by email (ahem Inkspun!) who had me waiting forever..have apparantly flaked out. I am think of DIYing it. Is there a program? Technique involved in printing out your own envelopes? Is it very simple?

Re: DIY envelope calligraphy

it's simple ... i just sized MS Word to the same size as my envelopes, typed each person's name on one page, and printed.

Only annoying thing is that i had to choose 'rotate when printing' (something like that at least) in the print options because my envelopes were too wide to fit in the printer. So on the computer screen, it looked like they were 'normal' envelopes (landscape), but when i printed them, i had to feed them into the printer sideways (portrait)

i hope didn't confuse you too much
