Insert picture as background in a Word document
I'm using Word 2003 and want to insert a picture as background to cover the
ENTIRE page in a Word document. After I insert the picture and click and drag to cover the entire page, I open Format Picture and choose Behind Text Wrapping Style in the Format tab. The picture covers the entire page of the document but when I go to Print Preview or actually print it, the picture doesn't cover the entire page and there is an uneven border around the outside of the picture on the document. Is there something I have to do with the Margin settings or Advanced settings within the Layout tab? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks! |

Insert picture as background in a Word document
All printers have an irreducible unprintable area, usually greater on the
trailing edge, that is required for paper handling. Some photo printers do print "borderless" but sometimes only on small paper stock (with a special tray or carrier) and sometimes only with a special setting in the printer Properties. With most printers, the only way to print "full bleed" (clear to the edge) is to print on oversized paper and trim (which even commercial printers have to do). -- Suzanne S.
