Envelomat 2 compared with Word, LibreOffice and Avery
Four ways to print envelopes, address labels and mail-merge letters – what each one does, what it costs and when to use which.
Envelomat 2 for Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit).
Short answer
Word and LibreOffice Writer can print envelopes and labels with a mail merge – good for an occasional mailing if you already use them. Avery Design & Print Online is a free online designer for Avery labels and products. Envelomat 2 is made only for envelopes, labels and address letters: it keeps its own address book, has 56 envelope templates, remembers the print offset of each printer, continues on a partly used label sheet, checks addresses and sends the same letter by e-mail with a personal data (GDPR) check – with an English, Slovak and Czech interface.

Which one to choose
Mail merge in Word
You print envelopes or labels a few times a year, already have Microsoft Office and do not mind setting up the document, the list and the margins for each mailing.
LibreOffice Writer
The same occasional use as Word, but free and also on Linux.
Avery Design & Print Online
You print on Avery labels and are happy to design in the browser and upload your list to the online tool.
Envelomat 2
You send post regularly – an office, school, association or company: one address book, envelopes that print exactly where they should, labels on partly used sheets, letters on paper or by e-mail under GDPR, and addresses that stay on your own computer.

Frequently asked questions

Envelomat 2 for Windows keeps its own address book, has 56 ready-made envelope templates and remembers the print offset of each printer, so a regular mailing does not need a new document setup each time. There is a free 30-day trial and a free Free edition.
Can I print address labels on a partly used sheet?
In Envelomat 2 you click the first free label of the sheet and printing starts there. Microsoft, LibreOffice and Avery do not list such a function in their documentation.
