Anchor your .eps graphic to the header and set the text wrapping to Behind
Text.

I'm trying to add an .eps file as a background in word. Since I need to be
able to format text over the top I've been using the formatbackground
function. Problem is it doesn't seem to support .eps files.

I also tried doing it with the header and footer fuction but that doesn't
allow me to place text over the top of the image. Any ideas?
