    Oh you mean you have an 8.5x11 image? you may need to recreate it. You have some formatting options as well.

    I would need to see it in order to help further.

    Actually, try insert image>from file and then dbl click the image go to layout and select "behind text"

    hope that helps, I have not had to do that in ages.

    That works!

    The problem now is that my layout is in the wrong size. What are the Pixelsizes for a grafik that covers a full word page?

    Hmph... 612x792 I think. I should ask... what sort of document do you have? If its a .psd or something similar you can export the pieces, rebuild it in word, and save it as a template. .dot

    While the above solution may work for you, it might create a big document.
