Default How do I extend watermark to entire left-hand side of page?

Can you see the body of the letter in Print Preview? Is the body formatted
as Hidden? Is the body ordinary document text or is it in a text box (it
needn't be)?

All I get to print is the header/footer/text box. The body of the letter
disappears.

What doesn't print out? The body of the letter or the letterhead? If the
latter, and you've used a text box, make sure that you have "Drawing
objects" checked on the Print tab of Tools | Options.

I was able to accomplish the left-hand side of the page, but it is not
working as a template. When I type text in the body of the letter

portion,
it doesn't print out.
How can I 'fix' this?

Thanks so much. The cut off is vertical, but the "setting up letter
templates" is exactly what I need.

Thanks again!

I'm not sure what causes the 2/3 problem, especially since you

didn't
say
whether they're being cut off horizontally or vertically. Instead

of
using
the watermark feature, use a text box as described in
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm under "More

complex
letterhead". If desired, you can set the text box wrapping to

"Behind
text"
and set the font color of its contents to a lighter shade of gray,

and
it
will behave like a watermark.
