Default Stretching background to full page

The problem of Stretch and Tile is because of Size and Resolution difference.
The Page measurement is in inches and the picture you are using is in Pixels.
That is why, there is no 100% accuracy. If you are still not specified with
both options, I told you about then you can do as said by "Suzanne".

1. Click Insert - Picture - From File.
2. Make it Stretch.
3. From the Picture Toolbar (if it appears automatically) click the Text
Wrapping button and set it to Behind Text.
4. If there is no Picture Toolbar then double-click on picture and from
Layout tab change the Text Wrapping to Behind Text.

Hope this information helps you, let us know!

I did the second one even before I emailed you and it tiles. It will not
stretch to cover the ful page. Doug Robbins said add a picture and resize it
but then it would not be a background, just a very big picture.

First of all:

1. Click Tools - Options - click Print tab.
2. Here make a check mark on Background Colors and Images.

Now, Here are 2 options for you to put a background. First decide that what
you want your picture as a Watermark or a Clear Picture.

For Watermark:

1. Click Format - Background.
2. Printed Watermark.
3. Click Picture watermark Radio Button.
4. Click - Select Picture - and choose a desire picture.
5. Set the scale as required e.g. 100%
6. Click Ok.

Second One is:

1. Click Format - Background - Fill Effects
2. Click Picture tab.
3. Select Picture and choose a desire picture.
4. Click Ok and see the results.

Hope this help, let us know!

I am sorry I do not know what to put this under but I am trying to find out
how to place a picture that is not html as a background without it tiling.
How do I make it stretch to full page? If I am under the wrong catergory
where should I put it?
