Description: I am using a HP Laserjet M227 to print small envelopes (6.25") I place the envelope in the printer facing upwards and the flap on the right. I format the envelope's sender (me) and it is fine, but the adressee does not come down enough. I have it set maximum at 2.30 from the left (fine) and 2.84 from the top (does not go further.) Can you program the parameters to increase the downwards limit? Steps to Reproduce: 1.Put in envelope 2.Format envelope 3.Print envelope Actual Results: I have a pdf that shows the addressee is too high on the envelope. This is an easy fix. If you give me an e-mail address, I can send it to you. Expected Results: Addressee should be lower on the envelope Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info:

Just downloaded the newest version 6.2.3 and the problem is still there, the addressee is till too high. Right now, the maximum I can bring it down on a 6 3/4 envelope is 2.84. I need it to go down another inch (4") Can you make this happen? I print a lot of envelopes and they look terrible!
Created attachment 151460 [details] envelope format Hello, Thank you for reporting this. I've tried to reproduce the issue but couldn't. I've attached a screenshot of the settings I have. I was able to increase it more than 2.84 from the top. Could you please set your own parameters in that window including envelope size and share the screen with us? I'm setting the bug status to NEEDINFO, Please set it to UNCONFIRMED again after providing the requested data.

Yes, the bug is still there. Specifically, for a personal envelope, 6 3/4", the Addressee field needs to INCREASE over 2.84" from top. The way it is now, the addressee field does not go down enough. This should be very easy to program. Just increase the measurements so that you can go OVER 2.84" down from the top.
How do I do a screenshot of the window like you did?

Created attachment 151477 [details] screen record of envlope creation Thank you for sending the requested information. I've checked the issue and I can see address can't go beyond 2.84 from the top. The reason for this that 2.84 is the maximum limit which for that small envelope otherwise it will be out of the printing area. I suspect your problem is related to setting the correct settings for the printer. I've attached a screen record showing the steps I took and in the preview you can see that the final preview is as intended and it's not possible for the address to go any further. To verify this create the envelope then export the file as PDF before printing. If it shows as intended then the issue is most probably with getting the print to print right by choosing the correct settings like (paper size etc.) I had similar issues with different softwares where I needed to modify the page size in different places to get it accepted by the printer.

What you say is true but this does not take into account which printer you are using. I just bought a brand new HP Laserjet all in one. Model number is MFP-M227-M231. Or just M227. The printer/printer driver has 3 positions for putting the envelope in the printer. I tried all three. They are center, right and left. I use the center one since that's the one that gives me "sort of" the best results, although not satisfactory. If I use the one on the right or the left, it's totally wrong! Pls explain why it is not possible to increase the addressee down further? Although the graphic will show the address is "off" the envelope, it will be perfect for me! I can't believe this can't be done; anything can be done with programming.
I wish you could solve your issue and get a happy experience using LibreOffice but bug triaging and fix release for accepted bugs may take sometime. I suggest you ask your question in https://ask.libreoffice.org/ There you could get a solution for your issue or a workaround. You may also want to check LibreOffice Telegram channel to get help from the community https://telegram.me/libreoffice As I told you if you could export the PDF correctly then IMHO the issue could be limited to printer configuration. Hope someone could step in and investigate it further.
