Watermarks and Multiple Sections
I have a document with 2 sections. The headers and footers in the sections
are not linked (I don't want the header/footer to show on my cover page). When I try to add a watermark, it won't appear on all pages. If I add it in my first section (the cover page) it appears there only. If I add it in the section section, it shows up on all the pages, except for the cover page. Am I doing something wrong, or is this just how Word works? Thanks, Buddy |

Watermarks and Multiple Sections
Insert the watermark in one section or the other. Then view the header,
select and copy the watermark, and paste it into the header of the other section. -- Suzanne S.

Watermarks and Multiple Sections
How do you "select" the watermark? I'm just using the default "Draft 1"
watermark, and I have 10 sections in my document. I need it to show up on every page of the document, but it will only show up in one section. Also, on pages with inserted graphics (TIFF maps), the watermark is covered by the graphic, and it won't let me select "Send to Back". Is there a quick solution for this? "Suzanne S.

Never mind--I figured it out. And I used transparent text boxes over the
graphics and pasted the watermark in. Took a little more time that way, but it still worked. "Red" wrote: How do you "select" the watermark?
