Default MS Word background image problems

Hi Paul

Not sure if this will help and I only think it works for XP, but this is
what I've done in the past. Save the picture you want to use. Then go to the
document that you want to put the background into. Select Format, background,
printed watermark, click on picture watermark, select picture. There's an
option for washout as well.

Best of luck.

Hi

I'm trying to add an A4 image as a background, to a standard A4 MS Word
doc.

The document is intended to be used as a proposal document and it will
be required to be printed and also converted to a PDF.

Can somebody please advise the best method to insert an image so as it
can be typed over?
I also require the image to be full colour, and not "wash out" as
sometime seems to happen in Word.

Many thanks
Paul
