Over writing an image with text - Help!

[kevfreeflight1]

Apologies for bothering you all. I am a pilot and need to design something
for the flying club where I fly to celebrate its 50th birthday. I have
imported a photo I took of an aircraft onto a word doc and made it fit to A4.

On a seperate sheet - I have a page of text that is being used to promote
the club's birthday / aznniversary. I want to be able to put the complete
text onto the photo and create a document with a photo as the backdrop.
The only way I can do it at the moment is to print the image, then put that
back into the printer and print the text over it.
Any ideas how to do it all in one? I would be grateful. im on the latest
version of XP with latest processors etc.
many thanks
Kev

Set the image layout property to 'behind text' and write over it.

More to the point, in the existing text document, insert the picture as a
watermark or use Insert | Picture | From File and set the text wrapping to
Behind Text.

There is a massive amount of text to re - write - I want to be able to just
copy and paste it if thats possible.

Open the document that contains the text, insert the picture and make sure
it is set to "Behind Text" in the "Layout" tab of the Picture properties
dialogue (Format > Picture...).
