* Add w:document/w:background; note that this is only visible in Windows Explorer file preview, or * Word's "Web layout" and "Full screen reading" document views (ie not Print Layout, Outline, * or Draft). Checking Word options > Display > Printing options > Print background colors and images * makes no difference to what you see in Print Layout, but it does change what you see in Print Preview. * * This is different to a watermark, which is set via the headers (see WatermarkPicture sample for that), * which is probably what you want.
