Default saving a jpeg to use as the background of a template

Given that the vast majority of printer drivers are incapable of printing to
the edge of the paper this might prove problematical, yet the process is
simple enough. Put the image in the header view of the document and set its
layout property to 'behind text'. Drag the 'handles' to fill the 'page'.

Hi

I'm trying to use a jpeg I have as the background of a template, I'd
like the jpeg to cover the entire page including header, footer and
margins, so when I open the document I can simply add text or
whatever i wish over the top of the image.

Any help would be appreciated!
