Hi Bill,

I am not sure that the post below took. So I am sending it again under my
other user name.

Hi Bill,

I have done exactly this.

1. From Word's drawing toolbar, select oval
2. Draw an oval on the upper half of a new document.
3. Select the oval and:
a. on the size tab set both the height and width of the oval to 115 mm
b. on the layout tab set the oval for in front of text
c. Click advance and on the Picture Position tab set and lock the page
position.
d. On the Colors and Lines tab set the fill color to White.
e. Then, set transparency to 100%
4. Copy and paste the oval to the lower half of the page.
Note - you will need to adjust the top and left margins to register with
your printer.

Save the document as a template.

Now, you can open the template and insert images. When you insert an image,
select the layout tab and place the image behind text. You can not size the
image and move it around until it meets your requirements.

Put the label paper in the printer and print.

Let me know if this works for you

Jim
