Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It would be nice if one could print an envelope from a contact.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice if one could print an envelope from a contact. This might involve selecting fields to be included in the to: address and maybe storing some text for the return address. A really fancy version would allow art work in addition to or instead of the return address text (think corporate logos). You might also have to allow the user to specify how to rotate the output on a per printer basis.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

I've had a similar facility in a database program I wrote for myself some 30 years ago.
