Problem description: Will not print envelopes correctly according to the icon within the program Steps to reproduce: I open Writer and go to Insert Envelope. I then pick out Format after entering Addressee - I then pick the Printer tab and select Print from the bottom and then select the picture that matched my printers Envelope format (Flap up on left side- envelope enters from the right side of printer). I can not seem to get it to printer on the envelope. It keeps wanting to print on the left side (where there no envelope). I even tried to print it as a PDF and still no luck. Current behavior: Prints address as if the envelope is on the left side of the printer. Expected behavior: Envelope actions are on the right side of the printer Platform (if different from the browser): Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:10.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0
Thanks for bugreport Please, attach odt file document that demonstrates this problem, screenshot of printer settings, foto or scan of wrong and good result of printing. Please, try on another computer or OS if available Try print on "Microsoft Image Writer" on Windows instead of printer if available and tell result Sorry for so much to work and thanks in advance

Thanks for additional information Reproduced in 3.3.4 and 3.5.1 on Fedora 64 bit Steps to reproduce: 0. Start Writer 1. Insert->Envelope, tab "Printer", Envelope orientation most righthand, select "Print from bottom" (also shown in attachment) 2. Pay attention how envelope placed (flap on right hand) 3. Press "New doc." on bottom of dialog (new document appears) 4. Enter some text into text frame, if needed 5. Print document Expected: text printed on right hand side of page (where supposed is flap of envelope, as shown in step 2) Actually: text is on left side of page Changing version to 3.3.4 as most early reproducible

This still has not been fixed. Any idea on when or if it will get fixed.
The label printing code was substantially re-done in recent time - not sure if that is related. Bugs get fixed when people fix them, patches are most welcome :-) I'll poke Winfried to see if he can help.
Thanks. It's not just for me it is also for those who have the same problem using other printer Model.
(In reply to comment #8) I will look at it and see if it is something I can work on.
changing version again to 3.3.4 as most early reproduced
(In reply to comment #10) The code is not related to the label printing code (as far as I could see). The envelope printing code is completely unfamilar to me: This bug will have to wait for a hacker who is (more) familiar with this piece of code...

Will this ever be fixed? Current version is LO 3.6.3.2

If I knew what I was doing then I would say yes. But I am not a programmer. I am just someone who uses the program and noticed a bug.
Thanks for interesting in this bug and additional testing. "Version" is most old version with bug, not current version of LO. changing version again to 3.3.4 as most early reproduced for 3-th time
Hopefully someone will either look into this and fix it or just say it is a no go.
This still has not been fixed. Problem still exists in LO 4.0.4 - 4.1.04 and 4.1.1.1 They should just included away to rotate the format 180 degrees just like MS Office does.
Also affects me on Ubuntu 13.04 with Libreoffice Writer 4.0.2.2 and a HP Deskjet Printer. I also notice that a blank page is printed after every envelope, this also seems to be specific to LibreOffice. WORKAROUND: Export the envelope to PDF and set all the print settings correctly in Adobe Reader - note that these must be set manually from the Printer Driver properties. Unlike LibreOffice, Adobe Reader does not automatically set the printer page size and envelope feeder tray (might be specific to my printer) from the document.
Tested envelop printing yesterday and to my surprise it worked correctly. 1. Linux Mint 17 patched current. 2, LibreOffice version 4.2.5 3. Epson printer drivers for Epson Artisan 830 generic driver (epson-inkjet-printer-escpr_1.4.0-1lsb3.2_amd64.deb) dated 03-10-2014 4. Printing from 4.2.4.2 still does not work using Ubuntu 14.04 patched current. Not certain if it is the same printer driver as above. If not the driver is Espon's full feathered driver (epson-inkjet-printer-artisan-725-835-series_1.0.0-1lsb3.2_amd64.deb). This driver is dated 02-07/2012 on the download page. I will upgrade to 4.2.5.2 and see if there is a change, and update the bug report. Only issue I saw was the envelopes must be inserted differently than for the other OS I use (sadly MS Win 7), Seems odd. I would think the envelop orientation would be the same and conform to an Epson standard for proper orientation of the envelopes in the paper tray.
(In reply to sasha.libreoffice from comment #3) > Thanks for additional information > Reproduced in 3.3.4 and 3.5.1 on Fedora 64 bit > ... hi sasha, are you still reproducing this bug with current LibO 4.2.6.3 or 4.3.5.2?
Sorry, I have not printer no more. May be somebody else can test.

Ditto for LO 5.0.4.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 and HP 3800 Color Laserjet printer. Work-around is to have driver set to rotate by 180 degrees. BTW, if there are pointers to the code section in question then I would not mind taking a look at it. :)

@QA Administrators Printing of an envelope using version 7.0 RC1 worked. There was I thing I had to do. I had to set the Addressee Position from the Top to 1. Does not remember for the next time. Envelope size #10 Other than that it works. Will just have to remember to make the change.
As a workaround, you could use the #10 or whatever envelope definition under page definition in a document. Forget about the envelope stuff. You can still insert data from a database or spreadsheet. I'm not sure if you can insert stuff from an address book. a bit of a search will answer that one.
