I want to use layers in a Word document to lay text over and across a bigger
word or picture. Can I use layers in Word?
 
Word doesn't use the term 'layer', but yes. Put your overlay text in a
textbox. Set the textbox fill and line to none. Set the graphics to allow
overlap. Then use the Order option (on the context menu and on the Draw menu
on the Drawing toolbar) if necessary to set the layering.
 
Or send the pictures Behind Text.
