I want to bring in a background picture place it in Word 2007 and draw text
boxes on top of the pictures. Essentially, I am using the picture as a
guide. The picture is already printed (almost like letterhead).

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks

Ron

Try Page Setup ribbon, Page Background, Page Colour, Fill Effects, Picture
tab and insert the picture as a background. Then make sure that in Print,
Printer options the option to print Background Colours and Pictures is
unchecked. You will see the picture but it won't print.
