Printing Image on First Page/Different Image on Subsequent

[MeTed]

Hey All,

I've been messing around with Word 2003 and I can't seem to get this to
work. I'm trying to design a form with embedded graphics (i.e. Letterhead).
However, the first page needs to contain our logo and company
informationwhere subsequent pages need only contain our company information.

I can get this to work using watermarks and headers/footers. BUT, the end
result is not what I need to accomplish. Here are the problems:

-Watermarks/Headers/Footers inherently will implement a percent
transparency. I can't seem to get these to come out at 100% of the original
picture file.

-Even if I was satisfied with the transparency issue (which I'm not), I can
tell the document to not use the Header on subsequent pages. This is fine,
but now I have a two-page document where I only would like a one-page
document.

My intent is to create a one-page document where if the text spills over to
subsequent pages, our logo does not appear and the graphics come out at
100%. Any thoughts? Can Word even do this?

TIA...

With a one page template, set up the Header that you want to appear on the
second and subsequent pages of the documnet and then via the Page Setup
button on the Headers and Footers toolbar (it looks like an open book), set
the Different First Page item on the Layout Tab of the Page Setup dialog.
When you click OK, the header that you had set up will disappear and be
replaced by a First Page header pane into which you can set up the
information that you want in the header on the first page of the document.
When you use this template and the document runs to more than one page, the
Primary header (the one for the second and subsequent pages) will appear on
those pages.

As far as the logo is concerned, just insert it as a picture into the First
Page Header. It may appear washed out on the screen, as does all of the
header information, but it will print in all of its blazing color.
