envelope 6 3/4 set up

I've a problem *setting up the page* size for an *"envelope 6 3/4"*, because every time I set it up (Inspector->Document->Document->Page size) Pages just puts the standard letter page size.

The closest that Pages lets me set up the correct envelope size is *"envelope 7 3/4"*, I need the other one ("envelope 6 3/4").

Could someone help me confirm if this is a Pages bug ?

I've noticed that if you make an empty new document, the page setup does in fact changes size with no problem.

But if you use a template and then try to change the envelope size, Pages can't handle it (envelope DL to envelope 6 3/4).

So, it seem like a bug.

Why don't you try from within Address Book to print your envelopes?
That is what I always use and you can choose from many envelope style/sizes or create your own.

Good Luck.

very frustrating...with all the advanced stuff this program can do I just want to simple make a custom envelope for my Holiday cards and be able to use the address book to put addresses on the envelope and possibly select the address and move it higher or lower etc. Why doesn't envelopes have a simple "custom" set-up with moveable address boxes?. I've seen it before in some basic address book apps.
