Dayle,

Scan the pre-printed form to create a jpg or bmp of it.

Pull down the Reports menu and toggle "Page Style" on

You will find a new "Page Style" band in the report design. Think of this
as a background or watermark for your report.

Make it the size of a sheet of paper, and place your scanned image of the
pre-printed form on it.

Then spend a while with some trial and error making everything line up just
right.

Bill
