Re: How do I change from writing in one column to writing in multiple columns (and revert back to one)?

Check the Help file topic on "Multi-column page layout" which explains it far better than I ever could here. The topics include an example of how to do precisely what you're trying to accomplish.

Re: Document Formats for Envelopes

My apologies for not following up in a more timely fashion.
