RE: Backgrounds

A background is a page that appears behind another page, and you can assign a single background page to multiple foreground pages.

Create a template that includes a background page
Use this approach if you haven't yet created your drawing or if you'll be creating many drawings in the future that should have the same design elements, such as drawings that should include the company logo and borders.

You first create the background page and save it as a template. Then when you create a new drawing based on that template, every page you insert automatically has the background page assigned.

On the File menu, point to New, point to the category of drawing you want, and then click a template name.

On the Insert menu, click New Page.
On the Page Properties tab, click Background. Type a name for the background page, and then click OK.
Add the graphics that you want to appear on pages in new drawings based on this template.

Click the Page-1 page tab.
On the File menu, click Page Setup.
On the Page Properties tab under Background, choose the name of the background page you just created, and then click OK.
The graphic from the background page appears on the first page.

On the File menu, click Save As, and then in the Save as type box, select Template (*.vst).
Type a name for your template, select the location for your template, and then click Save.
