These same instructions apply to Word 2010 and possibly Word 2013.
Choose a watermark that can best mark your document and click it to add it to your Word document. Then a list of default watermarks will show up. Select the tab of Page Layout on the ribbon and then go to Watermark under the section of Page Background. Select Custom Watermark (at the bottom of the shortcut menu).Īll sections (odd/even, and first page) had this watermark applied to them at once.Ĭ was very happy and so was I, as it ended up being such a simple solution. Open the Word document in which you want to add a watermark.Click the Watermark button in the Page Background group.First, I got C to delete all watermarks she’d just added (otherwise she would get two different watermarks on some pages), then I got her to do this: However, I found what did work and that was to set a custom watermark. I suggested she start at the end of the document and work her way back to the beginning, but that didn’t work either. Without investigating too closely, I suspected that a combination of odd/even pages, different first page, and Same as previous settings for the headers were at play here. This document had several sections, and each section is set for odd/even pages and a different first page for the cover page. She could add it successfully to the cover page, but as soon as she tried to add it to the even page section or the odd page section, whatever she’d added previously disappeared. If I paste the original text back on that page then the watermark disappears completely begining at a certain point on the page.My colleague, C, was trying to add a DRAFT watermark to her Word 2007 document. If I remove the text and start typing then the watermark is shown as expectied. There appears to be something hidden on that page that is causing it. So you can see the top of the watermark, but not below the "white background box." What's even more strange is that the "white background box" appears several rows down on the first page. If I manually move the watermark around on that page you can see it as it comes from behind the "white block" area. If I remove the text from the first page the watermarks shows. It's as if you put a white box over the watermark such that the watermark doesn't show through it. However, on the first page the watermark is covered by a white "background" block around the text. When the watermark is added it appears on all pages. The headers for all pages are the same (no text is in the header). A watermark was set to be displayed on all pages. I have a MS Word 2010 document with three pages.
