The Page Background can also be from an image file, instead of just a
solid color or ramp. The VIP Composer software includes 100
backgrounds to get you started, but you can use backgrounds from just
about any common file format, including .JPG and .BMP.
Click on the Page Background icon again (remember to turn the Tool
Palette back on using the View menu if you have turned it off), to return
to the Page Background Dialog:
This time, select "Image File" from the Background Type pull-down
menu. Notice that the controls in the Image File area (such as "Browse")
become enabled.
Click on the "Browse" button to select a background file. A File dialog
will appear. If this is the first time you have run VIP Composer, you will
need to locate the folder containing the included backgrounds. Look for
a folder named "Backgrounds_HiRes", "Backgrounds_LoRes" or similar.
Double-click on the folder once you have it located to reveal the folder's
contents. Your File dialog should now appear similar to the one below:
Click on "A_Backdrop_008.jpg", then click "Open". You will be
returned to the Page Background dialog, and note that your selection is
now shown in the file name space.
