I'm putting together an informational packet in Word (Office 2003) and want
to include an official form - but only as an example. I have seen before
where a page of black text is overlaid with some gray text - sometimes
stretching diagonally across the page - saying "For Example Only" or "Not for
Official Use". Does anyone know how to do this?
Thank you!

Format Background Printed Watermark, select Text Watermark, type in what
you want to appear, select Font size and color.

This is a version of WordArt which is placed in the header, which you could
also use.

Thank you! Now how do I get it to apply to one *one* page of my document?
I've tried creating section breaks around the one page that I want it on, but
so far, when I create the watermark it applies to the entire document.

Either create the watermark manually and anchor it to a paragraph on the
page (with Behind Text wrapping), or, if the one page happens to be the
first page of a section or the only page of a section, anchor it to that
First Page Header/Header only (unlinked from previous and following
headers).
