Adobe Acrobat Professional

I am trialling the use of this software for sending reports via email to clients with a standardised letterhead and continuation pages.

Is it possible to scan in a high quality copy of our stationery and use it as a template / standard background when creating documents in pdf format.

Alternatively, should I be considering creating the template in word, then just print to pdf in the normal way?

One of the alternatives to using adobe is to just email the word doc, but I don't think they look particularly professional as we are currently either sending the basic word file, that doesn't include the company letterhead, or printing and scanning to pdf, which somewhat defeats the point of sending the email to save paper.

Scanning a background won't work very well. It'll take a relatively huge amount of filesize and will never look very good. Actual 'live' text takes up virtually no room and will always be scaled to look perfect.

Exporting from Word would work much better. I think you might need a plugin though.

what i just did in Adobe pro 7 war create a word doc and print to pdf and opened the new doc with Adobe and it still looked good. this was with different text formats and jpeg's.
