I have read everything I can on this, I cant find the answer, please help! I have more to scan and make into templates!

If you wanted text you could edit, you should have scanned it as OCR (optical character recognition). That would have scanned it and opened in a Word document. Perhaps you can still do it.

Sometimes when I download a PDF form which looks too complex for OCR scanning, I scan to save an image on disk.

It will come out as a jpg.

First, resize it to fit the page.

Then, right-click on it and select ''send backward''

Now, create a text box with the Drawing toolbar.

right-click the text box and select order, ''bring to the front''

right-click the text box and select ''format text box''

cl on Layout

cl ''in front of text''

Drag the text box whever you want it.
