Meh, Step 1) Print them on a regular sheet of paper. Step 2) Carve them out with knife. Step 3) Clear packing tape to affix address label to envelope. Same process for handling the return address. :)

I recently installed that on a tablet. While, there are some features that don't work very well on the tablet. It looks great, and performs well.
