Sample Small Envelope

Here is a sample small envelope, which does NOT print properly in LibreOffice Writer.
(Note that if I use Lotus Symphony to create a similar one, I can print that OK from within Lotus Symphony.)
(Also note that Commercial #10 envelopes do print properly in LibreOffice.)

Here are the steps I used to create the sample small envelope document:

Open LibreOffice Writer
Menu: Format->Page
		Format: 6-3/4" (Personal) Envelope	{6.50" x 3.63"}
		Orientation: Landscape
		Paper tray: Rear Tray
		Margins: 0.25", 0.25", 0.25", 0.25"
	<OK>

Menu: Insert->Envelope
		Addressee: "Addressee"
		Sender: "Sender"
	<Printer> tab
		Select 4th icon
		Print from top
		Current printer: Canon MX860 series Printer

Needed to redo Format->Page

Needed to move Sender and Addressee text boxes into position

File->Printer Settings:
	Page size: Custom: 6.50" x 3.63
	Orientation: Landscape
	Media Type: Envelope
	Paper Source: Rear Tray
	
Needed to reset Orientation in Print dialog

Hi, so the problem is with the icon orientations or printing? Which version of LibreOffice are you using? Thanks - Sophie

Sophie,

There appears to be a problem with the printing.

I found a workaround.

If I do:
     Insert->Envelope icon #1.
     Format->Page 6-3/4 Envelope (6.5" x 3.63")

Sophie,

There appears to be a problem with the printing.

I found a workaround, though.

If I do:
     Insert->Envelope: Icon #1.
     Format->Page: 6-3/4 Envelope (6.5" x 3.63"), Landscape
     Print->Printer Setup: 6.5" x 3.63"), Portrait, Rotate 180 degrees
     Insert the envelope with the top of the envelope facing the front of the printer.
     (Instead of with the top of the envelope facing the left of the printer, as with a standard size envelope.)

Then this prints OK.

Specifying "Landscape" for Format->Page, but "Portrait" for Printer Setup seems rather odd.

Maybe it's something unique to our printer (a Canon PIXMA MX860).

@rj
is the bug still reproducible with LibO 4.3.2.2?
are you still using that Canon printer? have you ever tried a different printer?

Yes, it's still reproducible with LO 4.3.2.2.

The Canon's the only printer I tried it with.

I tried opening the file in Microsoft Office Starter 2010 (comes free with Windows 7 Home edition, 64-bit), and it gives an error saying that the file is corrupt.

However, I am then able (from within MS Office Starter 2010) to save the .odt file as a .docx file and then (from within MS Office Starter 2010) print the envelope fine.

I should have said:

However, (from within MS Office Starter 2010) I am able to:
1. Recover the .odt file, and then
2. Either:
 A. Print the envelope fine from the recovered.odt file.
 B. Save the recovered .odt file as a .docx file and print the envelope fine from this .odt file.

So, since MS Word Starter 2010 can print the envelope fine from within either the recovered .odt file OR the .docx file created from it,
it would seem that the problem is with LO's printing rather than with the 
formatting or the printer driver.




Since this recovered file

LO 3.3.3.2 doesn't work either.
