SUMMARY
When an envelope is created in Works 3.0 and a dot-matrix printer is selected as the active printer, the page size and orientation are determined as follows:
 * 1) For supported envelope sizes (those listed in the Page Size list box in Page Setup), Works gets the page size and orientation from the driver.
 * 2) For unsupported sizes, if Tractor is the paper source, Works will create a custom page size and default to a portrait orientation.



MORE INFORMATION
Some dot-matrix printers will print supported size envelopes in landscape and all unsupported sizes in portrait. An example of this scenario is the Panasonic KX-P 1124i. The only supported envelope size for this printer is 10 and it is fed in left side first. All other unsupported sizes are fed in top first on this printer.
