I apologize, I still haven't get it.

Can you please explain step by step, how can i get the specified document.

A "background" is just a watermark; a watermark is a graphic anchored to
the
header so it will repeat on every page.

I would appreciate if you could explain a little bit more.

I want to set the full page to color, not only the headers.

If you have checked "Different first page" on the Layout tab of Page
Setup,
you should be able to have a different watermark in the First Page
Header.

Thanks a lot! Everything works superbly!

Another tiny question, though, how to set different background
colors
for
the first page and for following pages.

Thanks already in advance!

Select your Adobe "printer" as the active printer while you are
creating
the
document; then Print Preview will show you what will "print" to
PDF.

What if I want to print it later into a pdf, which can
pefectly
handle
to
the
edge pictures?

You probably can't. Most printers are incapable of printing
to
the
edge
and
the preview is reflecting what the printer driver will
allow.
