Split Page Into 3 for Watermarks
Hi all
Not sure if this is possible in Word, but: In Wordperfect, the page can be split into 3 vertical columns (but not actually using the column command). The idea is to be able to create a single page showing 3 spine labels, but have a watermark specific to each label rather than applied to the page as a whole. Is this clear? Thanks to anyone who can make sense of this an offer a solution Phil |

Clear as mud
However in Word you will need a table and for the watermarks - see http://www.gmayor.com/graphics_on_labels.htm and http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_graphics.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org TheScullster wrote: Hi all Not sure if this is possible in Word, but: In Wordperfect, the page can be split into 3 vertical columns (but not actually using the column command).

Create a template for this. Insert a three column table set to the width of the spines and set the Row Height to 'exactly' the Spine length. Either format the borders to be non-printing or possibly make them a very light grey dotted border to use as crop lines. Then use Format, Background, Printed Watermark to insert a Watermark. The Watermark selected will insert into the header level behind the table. Double-click in the header area and you will then be able to select the watermark. Size and orientate the watermark and drag it so that it fits exactly behind one of the table cells. Then use Control+Drag to make a copy in the next cell and finally Control+Drag a second copy in the final cell.
