MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / January 2006How to get a header image (logo) wider than page margins
When I insert my header logo Word makes it fit within my margins. I want to have a wider logo without Word shrinking my image. If I insert my image (as a header) and my page has no margins it fits in well, but when I then adjust my margins (to have a specified area for my letter), Word does shrink my image. I have succeeded in doing this earlier, but as I rarely do this .. I have forgotte... Pls.... ;) Images that are In Line With Text must conform to the page margins. Wrapped graphics can appear anywhere on the page. So you have two choices. You can either apply a negative indent to the header paragraph (to allow the image to extend outside the margins) and insert the logo inline, or you can change the wrapping on the logo to any other style and then resize it as desired.

If you insert an image in line with text it will adopt the margins or paragraph formatting you set for it. If you insert it in any other mode it is independent of the margins (though not of the printing limits of the printer driver).

I haven't seen separate left and right header margin settings. It may be that your logo is set to be an in-line graphic rather than a floating one. I've never had problems with graphics exceeding margins but I don't insert graphics inline usually.

Indeed, Graham was referring to the paragraph indents as a means of "changing the margins" for the header, but you can also have different indents for odd and even (right and left) headers if "Different odd and even" is enabled and different indents are applied to the Odd Page Header and Even Page Header, either directly or (preferably) through the use of different header styles.

You can get the effect people want when they say they want to change the margin by changing the left and right paragraph indent settings.
