Custom setting the left margin
I have MS Word 2002. I want to be able to set the left margin to type a
document at a unique angle to correspond to a unique letterhead. I have two questions: 1. Can this be done? 2. If it can be done, how can I do it? |

Hi Ferrari
You can achieve this by creating a shape that reflects the shape of your letterhead and putting it in the first-page header of your Word document. If it is a really unusual shape, try using the Drawing toolbar and choose Autoshapes Lines Freeform. Now, double-click it and on the Colours and Lines tab, give the shape a solid white fill and no border (if you remove the border, but leave no fill, it will be almost impossible to select). On the Layout tab, choose Tight. Position the shape in the header to reflect the printed letterhead. Text in the body of the document will then flow around the shape. Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.
