adding an image with double digit page numbers

dear all,

I'm trying to build a template to be used in the office. The design appartment would like to see a certain image on the bottom of the page where the page numbers are going to placed, this because the font of the page numbers is white...(then they are visible...)

Also the page numbers are double digit, 01,02,03 etc.

So the page numbers must contain an image and they are double digit, and all this must be set in the template normal.dot

How can this be done? Please help....

Let's start getting one thing straight. IT SHOULD NOT BE IN THE NORMAL.DOT
TEMPLATE.

Create a new template, open the footer pane via ViewHeaders and Footers,
Insert the picture in the position that you want it and via FormatPicture,
set the Layout so that it is behind the text. Then use Ctrl+F9 to insert a
pair of field delimiters where you want the page number to appear and inside
the { }, type

{ PAGE \# "00" }

Press Alt+F9 to toggle off the display of field codes and select the page
number and from the Format menu, select Font and change the colour to white.

thanks for the great advice. I had already take a look at the fieldcodes but I just can't managed to double digit it, I guess that I'd forgot the # sign (as well as the "00").

But I still can't link the image with the page numbers. What I desire is that my coworkers just open a new file, and when they want to put pagenumbers in the document they get pagenumbers (and now double digit, what works perfect), together with an image. Right now the image appears allready without the page numbers, because it's set in the footer.

Am I doing something wrong?

Have you put the PAGE field in the footer?

That is, in the footer of the template. Then your co-workers won't have to
insert page numbers at all, because they will already be there when they
open the new doc based on that template.
