How do I get the picture background as one and not tiled?
I am using a photo for a page background. It looks great on-screen, but when
I print it or convert it to a pdf file, it shows the picture tiled throughout the page. How to I instruct the file to show the photo as one background and not tiled? |

No guarantees, but two things that sometimes work:
1. In Word 2007, try turning off "print in background" in Office Button | Word Options | Advanced. Or in Word 2003 or earlier, try turning off "background printing" in Tools | Options | Print. 2. In Windows, try turning off print spooling and/or advanced text services in Start | Control Panel | Printers | right-click on your printer | Properties. Otherwise, try printing to a different printer. Lori wrote: I am using a photo for a page background.

I believe you'll do much better if you insert the image as a Watermark, not
as a Background. Backgrounds are really not intended for anything other than on-screen/web page use, especially if your version is earlier than 2007. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones Office:Mac MVP "Lori" wrote in message ...
