Try an EPS (or TIFF) with a clipping path.

For more details on clipping paths vs. masks, see a message I posted
recently "Re: transparent images."

Pasting transparent or non-rectangular graphics...

Is there a way to paste non-rectangular graphics or graphics with a
transparent background into a Pagemaker 6.0 layout?  The only thing I
could think of off the top of my head was maybe using a mask?

 in PM 6.0 you can make the text wrap any way you like around a
rectangular graphic by making new handles and dragging them in to fit
your graphic.

Read about clipping paths in your Photoshop manual. PM6 can use either EPS
or TIFF images with saved clipping paths.

for use as the form.  Any suggestions?

Thanks
