Default Word header and footer transparency

If it is in the header, it will be dimmed. There is no way around this with
Word documents; however you could convert to PDF and email the PDFs as
attachments. PDF format would be preferable to Word document as a vehicle
for sending to clients.

If the information is to go in the e-mail body then the problem doesn't
arise as e-mail uses html format which does not support header/footers or
even pages, but then the sender has no control over whether the recipient
will view the message as html or plain text..

Does this mean it can't be done?
Ideally I want it in the header, so it looks the same on every page.

Thanks

The thing to do would be to not put the logo in the header.

I see your point about the PDF, however is there a way of altering
the transparency as I need to do simular in a doc that needs to be
editable.

Thanks

I would suggest that they should be sending the documents in .pdf
format, not in the original Word format.

Does anyone know if I can control the transparency of the way Word
displays
the Header and Footer. I understand that it only looks this way
in a working
view, not printed out. I also read that the brightness and
contract can
be
changed in format picture- but that changes the color - I am not
looking
to
do that.

I have created a letterhead with the logo graphic and contact
info. placed
in the header and footer. My client wants to use this letterhead
to email
information to her customers. When viewed on the computer, I do
not want
the
footer and header to have a transparency on it. Now a days, my
client will
not be printing the letterhead out as much as she will be
emailing it. Please advise. Thank You!
