Hello,

I am creating a publication in which I want to add a page background. The
pages are pages 5 and 6 and they are part of a two page master. I have one
picture that I want to span both pages, not be inserted once per page. Is
there a way to do this and what size should the pictures be so they do not
tile?

Thanks,
mitch

If your booklet is 8 pages, then the best way is to insert a picture and stretch
it to fit. Any time you use an image as "format background" it will tile.

I think you have to use booklet settings and then do View, Two page spread.
This will let you place the image over the two pages.  As for page numbers,
they will need to be pages 4 & 5 or 6 & 7.  Any two pages that start with an
even number.

If not using the booklet setup then put the full size picture on the page,
cropping it to half width and then repeating for the next page and cropping
it to half width.
