I have a client, I have a PDF version of her letterhead, we have word.
she wants her PDF to open in word as a template.. how?! perhaps a jpg?
thanks for your help.
flick.
I had the same problem with a client. I opened the PDF in Illustrator, saved it out as a WMF (I think), and then placed that file into Word as an image.

Should be able to. You could set a template for her to make sure that her text doesn't flow over the image in the background.
It's been a while since I've done it. Our clients had numerous offices and departments and just wanted a generic stationery suite that everybody could overprint. It worked a treat.
P.S. make sure that the image you place in the background is a vector file rather than a bitmap (you're effectively placing clip-art).
Just drag the PDF from Preview into word and it will place as an image. Click and size o fill the page. Control-click on it and go to Format Object/Picture or whatever and make sure it's set to appear BEHIND the text. Save the file and you're good to go.
