Too bad I didn't see this two years ago, before sending out the "Save the date" cards for our wedding

My solution was to

• Open the Excel address spreadsheet with Win32::OLE
• Get the addresses off a certain sheet
• Do some internationalization munging
• Format and append to a Latex document
• Call Latex and dvips

The formating I wanted was slightly different from an Avery label, in that it had to 'fold over' inside a translucent envelope ... long story
