Add a Logo or Other Graphics

To jazz up your letterhead, include graphics from your company’s collection of logos and scanned images or from the Microsoft Clip Gallery, or draw your own pictures. With the tools on the Drawing toolbar, you can create a variety of shapes, to which you can add color, fills, textures, patterns, shadows, and 3-D effects, and which you can group, align, rotate, and flip. Click the Drawing button to display the Drawing toolbar.

Mix Graphics with Text Effects

If you want your letterhead design to really get attention, use text effects.
