Hey all,

I am using Publisher to make a 44 page brochure, and I've had several huge headaches so far, but been able to work it out. I am now stumped. I am trying to put a text box over a picture, but it is not working. I have done this before, but for some reason it is not cooperating. I have tried using the 'wrap' selections by clicking on the picture, but it won't work. Any other hints?

yeah, make your brochure about 41 pages shorter so people actually read it :whistle:

Try making the background of the text box transparent.

I don't quite understand. Do you mean the text box isn't showing up at all, or you're just trying to send the picture to the back?

Believe me, I would if I could....but it's a project for work. I am so sick of it. :jameo:

It's for the cover page of the booklet...there is a picture on the cover, and I need the title to overlap the pic so you can read the title of the book. It keeps putting the text box behind the pic.

try a right click and look for "bring to front" or something like that....

Try clicking on the picture, click Arrange (from the top menu), click Order, then Send to Back. See if that works.
