Watermarks are text or pictures that appear on the background of a document, typically on every page. It's easy to add one in Word. On the DESIGN tab, click Watermark, and select one from the gallery.
Insert a watermark
Watermarks are text or pictures placed behind the document text. They can mark the document’s status as Draft, Confidential, etc., brand it with a logo, or just make it look better.
Click VIEW > Print Layout.
Click DESIGN > Watermark.
Apply one of the built-in watermarks in the watermark gallery, search for one online, or click Custom Watermark to create your own from text or a picture.
Change a watermark
Click DESIGN > Watermark.
Do any of the following:
Choose a different pre-designed watermark, such as Confidential or Urgent, from the gallery of watermarks.
To change pictures, click Custom Watermark, and then click Select Picture.
To change picture settings, click Custom Watermark, and then select, or clear the options Picture watermark.
To change text, click Custom Watermark, and then select a different built-in phrase or type in your own phrase.
To change text settings, click Custom Watermark, and then select or clear the options that you want under Text watermark.
Remove a watermark
To remove a watermark, under DESIGN, in the Page Background group, click Watermark > Remove Watermark. If that doesn’t work, the watermark was applied to a specific section of the document. Double-click to open the header area of any page the watermark is on, click the watermark, and click Delete.
