Print forms for window envelopes

You can print a sales form so that the customer's address and your return address are visible through a size 10 window envelope.

To set up your forms for window envelopes:

  1. Click the Gear icon > Custom Form Styles.

  2. To change the Standard style for all types of forms, click Edit.
    Or, click New style and then select Invoice, Estimate, or Sales Receipt from the list at the upper-left to start a new style.
  3. On the Design tab, select the last option for print settings and check Window envelope compatible and pay stubs.
  4. Click Done.

Limit the lines of your return address

To make sure the return address will be visible through the window, you should limit it to six lines.

QuickBooks formats your return address like this:

Your Company Name

Address line 1

Address line 2

Address line 3

Address line 4

City, State, ZIP

Any text in Address lines 5 or greater is not included on the return address.

If you need to shorten or change your return address, click Gear icon > Company Settings (or Account and Settings depending on what you see) > Company address.

Limit the lines of the Bill To, Sold To, or Credited To address

To make sure the customer's address will be visible through the window, you should limit it to six lines.
