I am trying to create a macro that will insert my scanned signature into
a letter. It works fine, but to save time, the inserted picture needs to
be formatted such that its layout is "In front of text." The macro
recorder will not let me record those last steps.

Or, is there a better way to accomplish this task?

Try saving your signature, set up the way you want, as an AutoText entry.
You can assign a keyboard shortcut to it if you want. No macro needed.

How do I do that? I see how to save text as an AutoText entry, but I do
not see how to save graphics.
