Text in a text box wraps unexpectedly
This could be because the font was changed into a larger one. Extend the width of the text box to account for the horizontal expansion of text due to the font change.
Letter has more pages than expected
Check that there are no blank lines at the end.
Check that you're not using a foreign font.
Check that your pictures don't have alt text except where intended.
Letter is less than one page long; next letter starts on the same page
Add a footer containing a blank line to your letter.
Too much vertical line spacing in a multi-line address
Select the "address" merge field, and then expand the "Paragraph" menu and decrease the spacing before the line and/or after the line.
Address is not fully visible through envelope window
Insert a text box roughly where you want the address block to be.
Right-click on the text box and select More Layout Options.
Change the settings to match the pictures below.
Merge field fails to make image appear
Ensure that you copied the merge field exactly.
