    Thank you so much for replying to my question about
    increasing the size of the space to imprint the envelop
    address!
    Your reply sounds like this can be done, but I've tried to
    follow your instructions and I can't make it work. The
    only way I can find with options to move the text margins
    in any direction is to go to Format: Style: Envelop
    Address: Modify: Format: Frame, but that seems to be for
    leaving a space in the copy of the text.
    I have to put my envelopes in vertically because my
    printer paper tray is only 8 1/2 inches wide.
    I have been able to use Decrease Indent to move the
    address to the left so that it will fit on 3 lines in the
    Document view, but when I go to Tools: Envelopes and
    Lables..., the Decreased Indent has not registerd and the
    name of the addressee again takes 2 lines. Also, I would
    like to move the whole delivery address up on the envelop
    and I can't see how to do that.
    I hope I can follow your instructions better this time.
    Thank you,
    Alice
