Invitation Inner Envelope

I can't figure out how to do my envelope in my printer. The size isn't there... It's 5 3/4 by 5 3/4....

So...can i print the names of who's invited on a clear label and do it that way - or should I simply hand write it? (handwriting is OKAY, not great)..

ETA: I'm using Microsoft Word & I tried the CUSTOM setting. It said my size was too small and it auto adjusted it to make it larger.

Try Wiltonprint.com
Choose any of the wedding invitations and then choose the reply envelope.

They have some nice fonts to choose from and preset it to your printer.
It worked very well on my printer.

I had this same problem, and ended up doing clear labels - and they looked great! (so much better than if I attempted to hand write them all)

If you can't get printing on the envelope to work, find a nice font and labels actually can look very classy IMO

Don't use the envelope settings at all.

Use a regular MS Word file. Change the paper size the size of the envelope. This makes it SO much easier to center and look nice.

If the printer tells you it's outside the printable range, just choose the option that lets you print anyway.

When printing the envelopes for my STD's I had a problem with the size of the envelope not fitting into any pre-set mode. So I opened up CorelDraw (you can probably also use photoshop, etc, if you don't have those programs, their respective websites have free trials you can download) and I set the paper size to the size of my envelope (not as an envelope, you get me?) and I was able to print my address on the flap on the back of the envelope (and sideways too mind you, since one side was too short for my printer) they came out awesome and prefectly centered and what not.

I hate using MicrosoftWord or WordPerfect to print envelopes, they never come out right for me!!!

Hope this helps just a little
