Dear Wonderful Open Office People, I want to send a letter, either paper or electronically, with an appropriate background image. I have Windows 10 and Open Office 4.1.13.
I found an image, cropped it, opening it in Open Office, I get one image in the middle of the page and even though I specified Writer, it's in Draw, OR I get 3 or 4 images in one, in Writer. I only want one page. If it goes to page 2, then another one maybe. Or possibly just the background without the frame and flowers. I'm following the directions here: https://smallbusiness.chron.com/add-background-image-openoffice-document-63567.html How to Add a Background Image to an OpenOffice Document by Jacob Michael Jacob says to write the letter first. I decided to see if I could get the background first, because the flowers might make it difficult to read the text. Does having text on the page make a difference? - Answer The text flows across all 3 background images. * I can't see how to make the margins control the text in OO 4.1.13? [Solved] Multiple pages on screen - From 2016 https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=86060 I don't see what they are talking about at the bottom. I should note that I tried reducing the size of the image once, but the preview looked the same. I now changed it from .png to .jpg - it opens in Draw not Word. Years ago I experimented with plain colored backgrounds and that worked fine. How do I get the background image to fit the page and see ONE page to work on, in Writer 4.1.13? Linda
