SYMPTOMS
The Return Address box on the Envelopes tab does not pick up character
spacing added before address lines in the Mailing Address box on the User
Info tab. By contrast, Word does recognize line spacing added to the
Mailing Address box. (To locate the Envelopes tab, choose Envelopes And
Labels from the Tools menu. To locate the User Info tab, choose Options
from the Tools menu.)
For example, if you type the following address in the Mailing Address box
on the User Info tab, including the spaces before the ZIP Code
John Doe
One Microsoft Way
Redmond, WA
98052
the address will print and display in your document as:
John Doe
One Microsoft Way
Redmond, WA
98052
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word versions 6.0, 6.0a,
6.0c for Windows and Word 7.0 for Windows 95. We are researching this
problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base
as it becomes available.
WORKAROUND
In the Return Address box on the Envelopes tab, add the character spacing
before the address line before you choose the Add To Document or Print
button.
