% This is a simple program to rotate the axis.
% For printing envelopes, sometimes the envelopes get jammed.  
% Also, the return address sometimes comes out light/uneven.
% Rolling the envelope to break the edges seems to help.

% Here's an example of how to use this to print an envelope.
% It takes some experimenting  to position the address.
%
%
% print the return address in the upper left hand corner.

% print the address (somewhere near) the middle.
