Insert created template into document - how to?
The "trick" would be to make the image as close as possible to about 6.5 x 9
(the approximate size of the printed region on a page that has 1" margins on all sides--your size might be different), and to keep the aspect ration in about those proportions. With some virtual screen setups, the "screen" can be larger than what fits, and it can scroll. So, getting 6.5 x 9 would be no problem. That's going to be a function of your video software, however. However, if you make sure that the screen shot has the same aspect ratio, then you should be able to drag any of the corners of the resulting picture to expand it to fill the printable page area. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Heather C." wrote in message ... Thank you... I would like for the image to be full size/fill the entire page. Any possiblity of that? I know I can only make it proportionally larger by pulling the corners and that if I pull it in the middle toward the top or bottom, it distorts it.

Because you can have only one template associated with any given document, to accomplish what you want using text/formatting, you would need to format the text and other elements in that section so that it matches what you want the reader to see. It wouldn't be impossible, but using a screen shot would be a lot cleaner/easier. It also lets you treat the view as a figure, rather than as part of the document's regular flow, perhaps confusing the reader less. If you press the PrintScreen key, it sends the whole screen in picture form to the clipboard. If you press Alt+PrintScreen, it sends a picture of the current window to the clipboard. The result can then be pasted into the document. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Heather C." wrote in message ... I am working in Word 2007. I created a template. I have a different document which is several pages long. I would like to insert the template into the document so the reader can see what the form looks like that I explain in the document. In the template, I used text boxes and word art to pretty it up, and I used to tables for the user to fill out the form. How can I insert this into the presentation/document? Do I need to convert the template to an object or picture and then insert it as such? Thanks for the help! Heather |
