BTW, I started Linux, only a month ago, and I love it. Had to go to the M$ dark side for a few years after OS2 was out dated, I should have went to Linux years ago. I sure do not miss the way XP would run so slow and load programs and file searches in such a slow fashion. I have wasted several years of my life waiting on M$.

Otherwise, I would ask: is there a particular reason that OpenOffice won't work for you? If it is at all possible to use that, I would recommend it. If you cannot, there are a few ways to generate a Postscript document that you could print.

[quote]Does it print post net codes?[/quote] Yes, it is a matter of using a special font. This is supposed to be the special font: [url]http://www.barcode-1.net/pub/russadam/shareware/uspstt.zip[/url] However, you still have to calculate the Postnet code.
