SUMMARY

To print only the envelope that has been added to a document, and not print the rest of the document, you need to print only page zero. Microsoft Word uses page zero to denote an envelope that has been added to the document.

MORE INFORMATION

To print page zero, use the appropriate method for your version of Word.

Word 6.x

  1. On the File menu, click Print.
  2. Click Range.
  3. Type 0 (zero) in the Pages box. Click OK.
  4. Click Print.

Word 98 Macintosh Edition

  1. On the File menu, click Print.
  2. Click Range.

    NOTE: Depending on what printer driver you are using, you may not see the Range button on the Print dialog box. If you do not see the Range button, click the selection option drop-down box and select Microsoft Word. Click Range on this dialog box.
  3. Type 0 (zero) in the Pages box. Click OK.
  4. Click Print.
In most printer drivers, page zero is not a valid page and therefore specifying zero in both the From and To boxes does not work as anticipated. The Range button is under control of Microsoft Word, so when you type a page range there, Word sends the information to the printer driver in a format that the printer driver can understand.
