Thanks to everyone who suggested ways to do what I wanted. Actually,
I didn't need PostScript at all. It turns out if you specify a top margin
as being negative, this tells Word to overlay the header with the main
text. So I can put my full page border in the header adjusted to the
right size and it it acts just like I had a background picture specified
for the document. Another example, however, of a very non-intuitive Word
feature.

I tried responding to everyone who sent me replies but most bounced back
(I find that *very* frustrating). So, again thanks to all who replied...
