"Old English" style template?
RJJ 12/24/2008 3:17:01 PM
I wish to create a Word 2007 document with a background resembling an old
style parchment paper with rolls at the top and the bottom. I think of that
as an "Old English" document although I could be wrong. Is there a template
available? I looked but was unable to find. If not, how can I create? I want
the background and the ability to type in my own text and then of course to
print.

Might try clipart

I have a burnt look clip on my web page, it isn't a scroll, but it may do.

To add to what Mary has said, you can often find preprinted paper with this
sort of design.
