Hi

This is something I used to be able to do on wordperfect but cannot find in
word. Is it possible and if so, how?:

I want to be able to print data onto a preprinted form that I have. To make
it easier, I want to be able to create and see my actual form in word but not
have the form print out. All i want to print is the data that i enter into
the relevant form boxes.

Also, another wordperfect thing, was to be able to print two documents at
the same time onto the same paper - ie, type a letter and have my headed
paper document overprint at the same time.

Any advice would be great. Thanks.

If you put it through OCR, I would suggest using save as to save it to a
text file. Then open that text file in Word and make the changes you want to
make.
