Hi David,
We don't have an envolope printing feature right now but I hope it
will appear shortly after Joaquin gets printing going under perl bindings.
With those in place it will easy and fun to hook up either a gumeric
spread sheet, CSV file or gnome-database to an abiword front end to make a
beautiful and easy to use letter printer and mail merge facility.
Unfortunately until other platforms get perl this will be a Unix only or
even gnome only feature.
Cheers
Martin
