MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / June 2006template backgrounds
We are implementing some new letterheads in our department and I need to provide staff with a template with approriate margins set up and a background image of the letterhead displayed but not printed.. it works fine on my computer, but how do I attach the image to teh template for other users when I distribute it? It will print, or not, depending on the user's settings to print drawings. You might want to take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages. http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step instructions. (It also has the following links) Some other pages to look at: Letterhead Tips and Instructions http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial http://addbalance.com/word/download.htm#LetterheadTextboxesAndStylesTutorial (for simulating different margins on different pages, among other things) Template Basics http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm How to Create a Template - Part 2 - essential reading http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Customization/CreateATemplatePart2.htm Word "Forms" http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms and Word for Word Perfect Users http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordperfect.htm if you are coming from a WP environment (or even if you are not).

I understand how to make it print or not print, my only problem is that if I "file>save as>template" the document when it is loaded on another computer if sets the margins properly but not the backgorund image.. I need a way to attach the image in the template file if possible. If it comes to it our staff isnt that big (20-30) and I could set it up on each computer seperately, but thsi seems the least acceptable option.. perhaps a globally shared template on the network could be implemented, if so is it possible to direct a template to a specific file stored loaclly for the background? In that way I could still have the basketball coaches letterhead and the football coaches letterhead display on each users computer yet use the single template file > It will print, or not, depending on the user's settings to print drawings. > [quoted text clipped - 33 lines] > > when > > I distribute it?
