Please before I hurt someone............

I am probably on an impossible mission, knowing myself. I want to print my own envelopes. I don't want a calligrapher. I have odd sized envelopes (6X6) and when I tried to get a custom size in Word, it would't accept it. Did/does anyone know how to do this with such a complicated size?
I'd be using WORD and I do have MS Office. Also, are clear labels out of the question? PLEASE HELP.....time is running out!!! I need to get them in the mail soon.

When I did it on my mother's computer....I changed the document size to the size of my envelopes. Then I used a text box so I could center the address where I wanted it.

Then printing, it depends on your printer.

for some reason word wont allow that size, i have the same size envelopes. open a blank document. do file, page set up, paper, change the paper size to 6.5x6.5 (this should be your envelope size, not 6x6) then click on the margins tab. i normally change my margins to .2 (top & bottom) if you dont do this your address wont print in the right place. then you can print the envelopes.

if you dont want them to print one at a time, you can keep pressing enter until u get to the next page, enter in all your address on their own page, then print all the envelopes at the same time.

hth!

And what about the inner envelopes? Do I do the same exact thing? Same margin size too?

yep same thing, change the envelope size to the size of your inner envelopes.

I printed the clear labels but I used the large packing labels so they weren't the small regular mailing labels. The larger ones mean you can do the fancy script

try with a regular pen and see how u like it, or try with a calligraphy pen from a craft store. i think printing them yourself is easier. once u get the 1st one it will be a breeze.

Honestly, I'm sending mine to InkSpun.com

For 0.39 an envelope it's worth it to not have to do it myself.

Just a suggestion!

I have an apple, and we printed off from the address book, you can set it up w/ whatever size envelope. Hope that helps!!! How many envelopes do you need to be printed?If you can't do it maybe i can print them off my computer if you would like
