Thanks!

I'll look into that - for now mikes sample works great.  I whacked out a
little perl script that lets me type or paste an address, and get an
envelope in one step.    

I am now hooked into learning more about LaTex.  I have managed to find
a couple of FAQ's and tutorials online, but this is a big iceberg.

A couple of issues have already come up:

1> how can i choose a specific font and point size?

2> is there a command switch for latex and dvips to make them run
'quietly'?
