Is there any way to specify the position of the background image used in a
custom stationery? The image I want to use should be anchored to the top left
with zero margin (it should snuggle up to the top left corner). I want to use
the "Auto" size so that the page scales depending on the viewer's screen
resolution. When I try to position the image and then set it to be in the
background, it always adds a margin around the background image. That's not
the effect I'm looking for. I know it can be done because the stationery on
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/TC011628751033.aspx?CategoryID=CT011228191033
has the background image positioned the way I want. Any suggestions?

Hi Nancy,

After you position the image in the corner, indeed some white space appears.
(OneNote creates extra space because it needs to render the image handles).
You can ignore it, right click on the image, and click "Set to background".
After that, scroll the page to the right and back again. Then scroll down
and back again. You will see that the white space is no longer there.

We will look for a way to make this less awkward.
