Hi Pat,

Under Office Button=Word Options=Display=Printing Options
(or using the Options button from Print Preview)
turn on the 'Print background colors and images' setting

I'm trying to print a document with a light blue background. I am using Word
2007.

I can change the background color on screen, but when I print (and use print
preview), the background is still white. How do I print a color background?
