Default Can I make the background picture be in the center of the page?


I can select a background picture using Page layout - page color - fill effects - picture, but the picture does not place itself in the center of the page. Thanks

With Word 2016, the background picture does not center itself.

Inserting a picture needs some work on large documents. I am still trying to center the background picture. Any help?

If you are saying that you want the picture on all pages, insert it as a watermark, using the Watermark dialog box. In Word 2016, click Design | Watermark | Custom Watermark.
