Creating document template

I have created a document template in Word using text boxes to contain the information I want within the left and top margin's including a graphic.

I would like to save this as a template so, I can still type within the rest of the page, and then when I move onto a new page it then takes on the same formatting. I have saved the template format that I want as a document template but each time I type within that page the text boxes move on to the next page, and the format is then lost.

Can anyone help me as I have never created a document template before

Your help would be appreciated.
 
You might want to take a look at this tutorial (including the Forms pages by
Dian Chapman).

You need to anchor your text boxes to the Header or First Page Header. See
