Perhaps other email clients as well. I don't know because
I have always used OE. |  | Distinguished Member with 2,833 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Nebraska Experience: Intermediate | | It is possible to d/l stationary from MS (free). You can use it in MS Word. OE also has some stationary available.

If not customize the toolbar and add it. Maybe that will
allow you to print.

#14 | Hi John Will, i think my wife downloaded the open office. i will find out for sure if she figured it out. i think what she ended up doing was printing out a page with a background and then when her letter was typed she put the page with the printed out background back in the printer and then printed the letter over top. i belive that was her solution. i guess thats what she meant by saying she was up and running. i'll find out from her for sure and if she didnt figure out an easier way then i will mark the thread as unsolved and maybe one of you can assist her to do it by an easier method. | | | Moderator with 96,735 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2002 Location: South Eastern PA, USA Experience: Advanced age & experience |
