Add a watermark to a printed document
To print a watermark, you must insert it into a header or footer. The watermark is printed wherever you place it on the page — it doesn't have to be confined to the area at the top or bottom of the page.
| 1. | On the View menu, click Header and Footer. | |
| 2. | On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Show/Hide Document Text to hide the text and graphics in the main document. | |
| 3. | Insert a graphic — a drawing object such as an AutoShape, clip art, WordArt, or picture — or insert a text box. | |
| 4. | On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Close. | |
Notes
| · | To view a watermark, as it will appear on the printed page, use print layout view or print preview. | |
| · | If the watermark interferes with the legibility of the text on the page, you can lighten the object you used to create the watermark. | |
