Maintaining Address Block Centering (through Window Envelopes) in Mass Mailings
I'm trying to do a mass mailing of # 10 window envelopes. You're allowed, by USPS, a maximum of 5 lines for your address block. You're always trying to keep the address block centered (in Printer's terms - Registering) in the center of the envelope's window - so that is passes the USPS envelope "Tap Test for window envelopes." - as outlined in their Domestic Mail Manual.(DMM) However, not every address will contain 5 lines of data - some will contain less. When you've calibrated your envelope stuffing equipment to register a 5-line address block to an envelope's window, the stuffing process will proceed fine UNTIL - you wind up with less lines in the address block! Then you'll find the "dear john doe" line showing in the window area (or some data that might be above the address block) showing through the window. My question is - "How do you maintain address block centering/registration through window envelopes(in a WORD document Mail-Merge) when the number of lines is constantly changing in the address block?"
