I cannot print envelopes from my mac address book?

@Glenn: What’s the problem you’re having with printing envelopes?

Now it’s easier to print address labels and envelopes online, using http://post.aplicatiionline.ro and all the contacts will be saved in the database. There you can see the address formats for every country to format the address correctly.

@Narcis: I am pretty sure that if somebody already has the contacts in Address Book it’s going to be easier for them to print directly. Why would somebody want to upload the contacts to your website instead of just printing them locally?
Narcis Bodea Sep 11th, 2009 at 4:57 am

Because they can acces their contacts from any computer and from any operating system. I prefer to use an online application than a desktop one. The same is for other persons.
By the way, we added a new domain for the application http://www.envelopedia.com
Thank you for your question.
