SYMPTOMS
When you try to add a custom-size envelope to a document that has a top margin of 3.5 inches or more, you may receive the following error message:

The Requested Envelope Size is Not Valid

STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUNDS
Method 1: Start with a page setup with a top margin measurement that is less than 3.5 inches. Add the desired custom-size envelope to the document, then change the top margin of the document to the desired size.

Method 2: Change the top margin, and use Space Before to simulate the large margin.

 From the File menu, choose Page Setup. Select the Margins tab. Change the top margin measurement to 1 inch.. With the insertion point on the first line of your document, choose Paragraph from the Format menu.. Select the Indents And Spacing tab. In the Spacing Before box, type 2.5". This will imitate a 3.5" top margin. If you want a different top margin, adjust the numbers accordingly.
