[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 82071, member: 831"] I've never been able to use "background" and get it to print. I'm wondering if it is even meant for that. This goes for both word 2000 and 2003. What you need to do depends on what your are trying to accomplish. Do you want to put color behind the text? I don't think "background" was meant for printing. I think it's meant giving color to a document that might be imported into another application. I use page and paragraph borders and shading. Then, play around with it to get the affect I want. Or you can create a "shape(like a rectangle)" , enlarge it to fit the page, color fill it, and then "send it to the back" behind the text. It will print that way. [/QUOTE]
