Hi all,
Okay I need your help. As you know in Microsoft Word borders are some what limited and are not what I like to see. I have a program called Art Explosions 800,000 which has over 600 different colorfull borders that I would like to use problem is they are clip art. Pixel stays fine while croping it etc.. but I cannot seem to put text on top of an image. I go into Word and select insert image from a file and border I want and sure it appears very clear but I cannot add text unless I am outside the image. Here is what I have been doing. I am making pages for my wife in PDF with word and a pic for her crochet stuff and what happens is she writes her patterns in text with word and takes a pic of the outfit. I then import the pic from my camera to Microsoft Word above the text she wrote and I have no problems but when I try to bring in a clip art image of a border I cannot put her pic and the text into the middle of the word doc because Word sees the border I choose as an image and will not let me overlap. Is there anything I can do about this?? Any help is greatl appriciated!!! Thanks, Joe

Send the image Behind Text. Click on the image to display the Picture
toolbar. Then click the Text Wrapping button (dog icon) and choose Behind
Text.
