Addressing etiquette

It is never a good idea to reinvent the wheel so rather than re-creating the information I am providing this link to  wedding address etiquette.

Fonts

LabelEase will print addresses using any font installed on your computer (and in any color).  The wedding font page provides more detail on how to work with fonts.

Address Smearing

An addresses printed with a inkjet or bubble jet printer may smear if it gets wet.  A light application of clear hair spray will prevent this from happening.

It is always a good idea to run a "utility" envelope through the printer, printing a bogus address to clean the print head.  When the printer is idol, ink sometimes accumulates on the printer head.  Printing a utility envelope will clean the print head and prevent smearing.
