Visio background   

Is it possible to match a background to a print size rather than a page size. 
 For example, a flowchart on a single Visio tab that flows over many printed 
pages.  We would like a particular background to be printed on each page, and 
be visible on the screen while a drawing is being viewed or built.

RE: Visio background   

Yes and no.  You can set the page size of the foreground and background 
sheets independently of each other, using the Page Setup menu.  So, the 
background can be forced to 11X17 landscape, and foreground to 8.5X11 
portrait.  Theoretically, you can have two foregrounds per background.  
Unfortunately, I don't believe there's a way to position how the foreground 
and background align with each other.  Also, when you view the foreground 
page, it will not show the portion of the background that exceeds the 
foreground page.
