I?m not so sure that applies to the USA. I used envelope printing software with Windows years ago and the bar code was always printed (or at least could be printed) directly beneath the address. That?s why I was so surprised that this application was printing it so far down on the envelope with no visible way to move it. However, it?s certainly no deal breaker and I do appreciate your making such high quality software available for free! There are surprisingly few envelope printing apps available that are as feature laden as yours!
