I have WP6.0 from Caldera (before Corel got involved), running RH5.0 (and
prior to that RH 4.2). I've had no real difficulties with the package,
although I haven't pushed the envelop real hard either. I print through
Ghost Script to a HP ljiip, which works just fine _except_ for envelopes.
My approach to printing envelops is pure crud/kludge unfortunately (gs
doesn't support the envelop properly) I have seen the Corel version on
RH5.0, but I don't have any experience with the package.
My guess is that the lady should be good to go with that setup.
