Watermark

The Watermark function allows you to create a simple watermark to apply to the document when printing.

You can add a text watermark and/or a picture watermark.

Text watermark:

  1. Enter the Text you want to appear as the watermark, or select standard text from the drop-down list.
  2. Choose the Direction you want to place the watermark from the drop-down list. The watermark will appear in the middle of the page.
  3. Select a Color for the watermark from the drop-down list.
  4. Select a Font and a font Size for the watermark text. Mark the appropriate check box if you want the font to be bold or in italics.
  5. Adjust the Transparency of the watermark text. This determines how dark the font will appear. Higher number = more transparent.
  6. Select the Position of the watermark, whether it should appear in front of the text on the page or behind the text on the page.
