Background picture
I have a picture I want to use as a background to all the pages in a
document. I tried to create a template with one page with the image on it but this didn't work. I can type over the image without a problem, but as soon as I go onto a second page the image jumps to the new page. How can I get round this? I don't want the picture to be a watermaks as it's colour and I want it to stay that way. Any ideas? |

Background picture
A watermark is merely a graphic (usually paler than normal - but it doesn't
have to be so) with its layout property set to 'behind text' in the document header view, so this is exactly what you require. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Keith wrote: I have a picture I want to use as a background to all the pages in a document.

Background picture
What you're looking for is a "watermark." If you have Word 2002 or above,
use Format | Background | Printed Watermark and choose the desired graphic. For earlier versions, see €œHOW TO: Create a Watermark in Word 97 and in Microsoft Word 2000€ at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=211324 -- Suzanne S.
