However, you cannot edit all labels globally (for example, to change the font name for
all records) by the technique of selecting the entire document. To achieve this result
you have to edit the paragraph style associated with the label records as follows:
1) Right-click any correctly spelled word in a label record. Select Edit
Paragraph Style from the pop-up menu. (Note: If you click on a misspelled
word, a different menu appears.)
2) Then from the Paragraph Style dialog box, you can make changes to the font
name, the font size, the indents, and other attributes.
Printing envelopes
Instead of printing mailing labels, you may wish to print directly onto envelopes.
There are two basic ways to create envelopes, one where the envelope is embedded
within a letter, generally as the first page (Insert in the Envelope dialog box), and
another where the envelope is an independent document (New Doc. in the dialog
box). In each case the addressing data may be manually entered, for example by
copying and pasting from the letter with which it is associated, or it may originate
within an address data source.
This section assumes the use of an address data source and, for convenience, a free-
standing envelope.
The production of envelopes involves two steps, setup and printing, as described in
this section.
Setting up envelopes for printing
1) Choose Insert > Envelope from the menu bar.
2) In the Envelope dialog box, select the Format tab (Figure 313), where you can
select the envelope format to use. You can then arrange the layout of the
envelope to suit your requirements, together with the character and paragraph
attributes to be used in the Sender and Addressee areas. These attributes are
accessed using the Edit buttons to the right of the dialog box, next to the word
Format.
Note
If the list of envelope formats in the Size section of this dialog box does
not include the size you need, choose User Defined (at the bottom of the
list) and specify the envelope size using the Width and Height boxes.
Tip
At this stage it is not possible to vary the dimensions of the frames that
will hold the Sender and Addressee information, but once the envelope
has been created this will become possible and you may wish to make
some cosmetic adjustments.
3) The next step is to select the Printer tab (Figure 314), from where you may
choose the printer you intend to use, its setup—for example, specification of
the tray holding envelopes—and other printer-related options such as envelope
orientation and shifting. You may need to experiment with these settings to
achieve the best results with your printer.
