Page Color
Use the different first page option in Page Layout and then place a colour
filled box in the first page Header stretching it to fill edge to edge. Note that your printer is most unlikely to bleed the colour to the page edges, so you will have a small white margin around the edge of the page dependent on the printer type and driver. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Matto" wrote in message ...

How do I change it to be formatted for one color for 1st page, then default for the rest? Pease help!! Click in the first paragraph on the first page. Insert a rectangle drawing object. Fill it with the color you want, and turn off the line around it. Drag the sides or corners to the right size. Right-click it and choose Text Wrapping Behind Text. Unless you have a photo printer that can print all the way to the edges of the paper, you're going to have a white border of about 0.2 inch all the way around the page when you print. There is nothing you can do about that -- it's a limitation of the printer -- so it might be best to buy some colored paper and print the first page separately onto it. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
