Thats fantastic. I have expanded out the box to fill the whole page but in
preview it has some white space around the page which in normal view is not
shown. I gather that is the printers limitations for the inkjet printer?

Thanks again
Mike

Hi Mike,

Open your document's header or footer, then insert a rectangular autoshape
and size, position & shade it accordingly. If you've got different odd &
even margins and you only want to shade up to them, you'll also want to
format the shape as 'behind text' and set its positioning relative to the
margins.

Cheers

I would like to have the paper(A4) all coloured or at least to what the
printer will print up to.

I currently do edit/select all/ then

Format/ Borders and shading/shading and then select the colour. - It only
coulours the area of text.

Is there a way to do this?

Mike
