Solution 1

Start by printing the html to a file.

Then use that file to modify the url/html until it works. So you are ONLY changing html (not code as in the above.)

AFTER you figure that out then write code that creates the html.

jschell, thanks a lot for solution.
I tried your way and it worked.
Actually word has a tag DisplayBackgroundShape to display background images.
